This would be about the time that I would quit due to hunger, being discouraged, boredom, feeling helpless, etc. Tomorrow is the day that I weigh myself, and I have to say, it frightens me. I have done remarkably well, considering my history of...not. I'm a stress eater, and I've been under some pretty heavy stress and haven't overeaten or binged in a week. I'm considering keeping track of my food here online, so I have some way of looking back and finding out what worked and what did not. I think I'll start doing that tomorrow. I'm also going to the pool for the first time since my son was born tomorrow morning. My daughter and I are going to swim laps...she's 8, and just made the swim team, so she'll be lapping me, literally, in the morning. She pretty proud of herself, since 2 years ago she didn't know how to swim, and was afraid of the water. It took a lot of time and a lot of hard work for her to get where she is. Swimming did not come naturally or easily to her, but it is something she really wanted. I think I could take a lesson from her.

I'll check in with my weight tomorrow. Last Wednesday I weighed 248. Hopefully I'm at at least 247.
