Why do people do blogs? Why on Earth would anyone put something on public display as personal as an attempt to lose weight?
I think some people want a pat on the back from others and need approval as motivation to keep going. These are the people that go to weight watchers and stay for the meetings.
I think some need accountability. Their motivation comes from embarrasment if they don't stay on track. A few others do this as a "dear diary" kind of thing, oblivious to the fact that there may be hundreds/thousands/millions of people peering into their world. Fewer still...

I wish there was a way to convince myself that I have the ability to get on plan and stay there. I have been down this LC path a number of times. And have generally been very successful when I am dedicated.

God has been to good to me to not mention his mercy!!!

I am so proud of myself. My husband and I went out last night. We had dinner at a blues club and then we went to the Steve Harvey show. Before we left, I looked online at the restaurants menu and decided I was not going to cheat. I picked out a Ribeye topped with shrimp, salad and string beans from the menu and that is what I had.
