Slow and Steady

Today I have been kind of worried that I was possibly slightly gaining some weight back, because I ate some items (while at school) that I did not know the calories for (pre-packaged sandwich) but I guess my wise choice paid off. I purchased a turkey croissant (ugh!! just saying croissant is making me feel fat) that had a leaf of lettuce, a slice of tomato and no mayo (mustard, salt and pepper). I only ate half the croissant and ate all the turkey. I was pretty proud that I was able to resist eating the whole croissant. Can't believe with all my tracking I have been doing I am now petrified of food/calories.

I have created a comfort zone at home with what foods we have, but the idea of going out and picking something off a menu (not knowing the calories) is beginning to scare me. Logically that is silly and it reminds me of one of the "Biggest Loser" episodes when Helen got home she was afraid of going outside the "Biggest Loser" eating habits and had a hard time adjusting. I'm afraid that's me now.

I have got to stop thinking that way. Logically I know my body will go through plateau's and possible weight gains here and there but I just don't want to get back to my old weight.

So with that said my fears put me on the scale and I was 241.0. Still loosing but slowly. I am totally ok with that!!
