Uh oh...

Boy, I have to say that Chocolate and Peanut butter ice cream I had last night was gooooood! It's a shame there wasn't much left, but what little bit I had was wonderful. Yes I blew it yesterday, I completely disregarded my diet and ate anything I wanted for the whole day, and you know what? It was awesome!!

All the suffering, starving, and willpower over the last 5 days, have had absolutely no effect. I haven't lost ANY weight! You would think that eating salads for dinner, and not having desserts or yummy snacks would cause me to loose something. Anything. Just 1 tiny water pound? Nope, not a bit. I don't understand it. OK, yes I've had to cheat a little and strictly speaking I'm not following the diet all that religiously, but I know I'm eating less food, and it's healthier too. Plus I'm not eating any desserts, that has to count for something right?

Then there was yesterday. The problem started when I found that I had to leave the house early in the morning and didn't get home til late that night. Since I really need to grocery shop for more diet friendly food, I decided to just wing it food wise yesterday. For breakfast lunch and dinner I ate out. And since eating out was the only way I was going to get food, I decided to enjoy the experience and not worry about what I ate. I felt so free! And it tasted soooooo good. I've been working on this diet for less than a week and already I feel as if I haven't eaten a proper meal in months. The thing with eating out and being on a diet is, that I will not go to a dinning establishment and spend money on a salad as my meal only to feel hungry again 20 minutes later. When that happens I will need to spend more money getting something else to eat, that will most likely not keep me full either. You can see where this is going. Not only does it waste money, I don't have the time to keep getting food to keep my appetite under control. It's not like when you are at home, and if you are hungry again 3 minutes after eating a sandwich, you can walk to your kitchen and get a piece of fruit or something. Therefore, I chose to eat whatever I felt like while out and let the cards fall where they may. Diet be damned!

So, after writing the above, I decided to weigh myself after my gluttonous behavior yesterday. I don't believe this, I lost 1 pound!!! How? How does that happen? And most importantly what does this mean?
