So, here I sit, contemplating everything that I ate this past week that was not in the diet. Every M&M, every bite of the coconut cake that our day care provider sent home with us, down to the pizza I had today at lunch. Now most of this stuff would not harm you. In small doses it can be a great treat. For example, a normal sized bag of M&M's is actually only 5 ww points so me having a bag every so often is not huge. On the other hand, when you add up several bags it is bad. Not that I had that many. Have I mentioned that they are my kryptonite? And the bastages just came out with DARK CHOCOLATE ones for the whole Star Wars stuff.
I hate them.
Anyway, this is not the point of my bitch session tonight. It is about what my group leader (weight watchers, not therapy) would call a saboteur. My boss, a co-worker, and I joined the program all at the same time. While I lost steadily and stuck to the program, they both didn't follow in different ways and gained or saw no results. Eventually, they both dropped out and I am still in it. I'm not losing as fast anymore but I think I'm still dropping. So we do a team building exercise at The Putting Edge (black light mini putt) today with a pizza lunch to start. I made sure that they were going to be having salad so that I wouldn't have to abstain. No problem. Made sure that there were going to be diet drinks there so that I wouldn't have to bring my own. No problem. We are driving back from the game and my cars mates stop at Tim Horton's for an Ice Cap and I say, "No, Thank you." Now I have come to the kicker. My boss and her carmates all roll in with a giant box from Nescalero's full of CANNOLI!!! FOR FUCK SAKES!!!! She even says when she comes into the office to tell us about it, "I know some of you are on diets, but just come down and have one.". She started the program with me! She sees that I'm now struggling with the plateau stage and she does THIS! I was so mad, but she is my boss. I had to wait for someone to pick up a file so I got a co-worker to get a cannoli for me. I then went down later and got a cup of the Orangina and said thank you very politely. The pastery was taken home in a zipware and given to my Mother-in-law.
If I don't deserve a friggin' high five from that I don't know what I have to do! :(
Anyway, will see how I do with the weigh in tomorrow. Wish me luck!
ps - Kudos to my current husband who held my hand not a half hour ago and led me away from the M&M's Dark in the Beckers. Love you Sweetie, thanks for supporting me.
