Back on track and learning control

OK, a few days of being more careful and I am pretty much back on
track! It's been 40 days and I am net negative 6. Not too shabby.

Especially since last night my husband made me go eat at that yummy
place with the GI-NORMOUS salad, soup, bread, and dessert bar.

Everything there is homemade and so luscious. I ate way too much
(although less than I used to). And then I yelled at him for insisting
we go there (it's his favorite restaurant). How am I supposed to
stay on track when he throws that kind of temptation in front of me?

But after I thought about it a bit, I realized something. This change
I am trying for has to come from within. I have to be able to resist.
I have to be strong in the face of adversity. (Not just in my eating,
either!)

If I can't control myself in this situation, how am I ever going to
stop myself from eating under the pressure of friends? Especially when
they make their own delicious specialties? Karen's cheesy sausage dip!
Kathy's Layered Taco dip! Shelly's homemade cheesecake!

After all, my husband isn't sitting there saying "Have some more...I
made it special! It took hours!" I need to practice control when it's
easier!

Thank goodness Sensa is helping so much. I really do feel full faster.
And when I overeat, I am almost sick to my stomach. Sounds silly, but
it really helps. Even I (with my horrible memory) am getting the hang
of it and eating less.

I will say that Month 1 of Sensa seemed more effective for me than
month 2. Although, looking at the chat boards and such, it appears as
if some people prefer month 2. In any case, this is a process and we
are all in it together.

And when the rest of the world catches on, we'll be the wise and
knowledgeable sages of Sensa!
