March 4, 2011 Diet Blog

I'm back from Memphis- but NOT back from eating badly. I cannot seem to pull it together, even though I was on a GREAT path before I did the book tour. The book tour went wonderfully. I did VERY well- so much so that they've invited me back in September, which I'm VERY excited about. I feel good about that, but am tired and listless because of eating so badly. I've got a 'lock' on it today. I'm going to try again...hense the title of the blog- "keep fighting fatty..." It's an every day, 24/7 battle for me. I wish I could be like it seems the rest of my friends are. They have control. They can 'eat anything' because they can control themselves. My brother recently said it best "we have no off switch." He's right. Once I get going I go...with no 'stop' mecanism. I literally have to conciously make the decision EACH and EVERY time! (sigh) ...and so, I begin once again today... and as always- I will keep you posted. I know this is just a short note- but I will try to get back into the swing of things. Time is precious. I'm in school two nights a week, I work all day, do book stuff in my spare time- I still have to unpack- my mother in law fell and is now in rehab, so I need to visit her...the list goes on and on.... It'll be okay- I just need the days to be longer than 24 hours ;-). See you next blog!
