I totally am rocking the George Castanza swishy suit today...I would have to walk with my feet 3 feet apart to avoid the sound my pants make when I walk due to the thunderness of my thighs. Sigh. On the up side, I do have to say ladies that I think this blog is really helping me see the error in my ways. Something about laying out all my dirty secrets (like, I may in fact be an alcoholic) is helping me put my eating, drinking, and exercising habits in perspective.
Went to a friends for dinner last night so I didn't have complete control of what I was consuming - beef brisket with some fingerling potatoes. I figure we can't completely deny ourselves or else we won't be successful, right? I guess it's all about making the right choices. For example: today I was at a meeting where a tray of divine looking sweets were passed to me...normally, I would have grabbed something completely decadent but instead I just grabbed a small little mini poppy seed muffin type thing. So in other words, I am downsizing. Maybe I should embrace this philosophy and have one glass of wine rather than two from now one.
I'm a quitter.

Its true, having a place to be honest with ourselves is so valuable, I had no idea how much it would help to just acknowledge the bad habit. I think you are right about downsizing over denying; its a better long term plan.
Downsizing has been my approach - radical dieting just doesn't seem like a good longterm approach for me... and I get cranky (and Flo has to live with me on a daily basis now - I know she doesn't want me cranky).
Sidenote about Flo's swishy suit - it looks great and I haven't heard your thighs zipping against each other yet.
I totally hate writing about when I'm drinking alcohol, but it's so much better to be honest about it. The other day I was blogging and drinking a beer at the same time. I so wanted to leave that out, but it helped that because I was blogging I had a glass of tea afterwards instead. I believe very much in replacing the junk with something better. I suck at turning things down. I want to say yes, I will eat the candy bar that is in my refrigerator. It's much easier to eat the Skinny Cow ice cream cone (delicious, low calorie, and surprisingly, bought by my husband) instead of just avoiding the bad food.
