Day 3: 12/6/19
Good day. No issues 3/1. Dinner at home...felt good to eat from a normal plate...which was
plenty!
Day 4: 12/7/19
I was not an Idiot, but did enjoy sweets.
Day 5: 12/8/19
I was not an idiot, enjoyed pizza...including seconds.
Day 6: 12/9/19
Oh dear...cookies...from the good baker at work....did not go crazy...but did eat 2 wee circles of sweetness with lunch. Darn the holiday season...She has masterminded a cookie swap at the office luncheon, why oh why did she bring these in today??? Of course, she did not force feed me, did not even offer beyond the 'I've put cookies on the table, enjoy...' I must take ownership of this lapse myself.
I am heartened by all the many, many folks on this board who have never had a month without an
or 2, but still be very successful in setting new boundaries with food and weight loss....
Onwards.

Hi yellowtulips, I'm not saying you shouldn't strive for perfection, but I've had good results at about 80% compliance. Even Reinhard probably has his red days. Merry Christmas on the 21 day plan. p.s. cookies are my downfall too. -fresh baked--no chance.

It's often not the little slip that has an impact but what you do after. Straight back on it and you'll sometimes get away with it.

It is true the 'little slip ups' are not what make us fail (unless it is day after day after day). I have gotten back on the pony and doing OK. I've added a couple more S days for December as holiday parties schedules have been set--and all are luncheon events. I've also decided to focus on 3 meals with no seconds. One cookie with a lunch will disqualify me for 21-day club, but certainly does not mean I'm an utter failure. Not that day-to-day scales mean much, but I have remained steady and even slight loss so far this month. So goal is to get through the holidays no worse for wear and just sticking with 3/1 habit. That is the essential one. From there all else follows.
