Since they like coming back...

I have these three pounds that are ever-so-fond of my *kitten*. Since they keep coming back, I've decided to name them! Ben, Jerry, and (Not-So-Little) Debbie.
Every Monday, Ben, Jerry, and Debbie make their presence known on my scales. I work and work to get them to leave, and by Friday they have usually packed and moved on. However, come Monday, they're back from vacation.
:laugh: :laugh: :laugh: :laugh: :laugh: :laugh: :laugh: :laugh:
I do fairly well through the week with diet and exercise. I might have a meal a week that's an indulgence, but that's it. By the end of the week the scale almost always shows a change in my favor, but come the weekend I seem to slip A LOT! Monday shows a gain and I spent that week working off the weekend.
Ever since I let myself indulge over vacation, I find myself craving those off limit foods on a regular basis. I used to have the will power to tell myself no...now my will power says, "You can work it off...it'll be ok!"

Don't listen to your willpower...it lies...lol...I find that if I allow myself a small treat every now and then I don't over-indulge...but if I don't then I will end up eating way to much of a good thing...tell Ben, Jerry and not so little Debbie to take a hike (literally)0
