Diet Update: Week Three

I am sad to report that I have gained back 3 of the 4 pounds that I lost. This seems to be the story of my dieting efforts lately (I am sure all the Labor Day cake didn't help). I am very discouraged and starting to believe the mantra of my TV hero Gregory House in that "people don't change". I know that it is my fault that I am fat...eating too much, eating the wrong stuff, and not excercising enough. I always get bitter when I see other people who are naturally skinny and they have habits just like me. I flash back to when I was dancing on the University of Utah's dance team and my coach wouldn't let me perform because I was too fat. I remember going to Wendy's with the whole team and they are eating burgers and fries and I am miserably eating a salad. I wish that I could be 140 pounds again like I was back then, but even then I was "too fat". I know that I made the mountain, I just don't know how to climb it. What is a fat girl to do?

Hey, House is my hero, too! :) Holidays -- even smaller ones like Labor Day -- will always do that to you. Don't give up...I know you can do it!

Hang in there! Diets stink... I know that it is supposed to be a "life-style" change but it still stinks! One week up, 20 down weeks to come!
