I never wanted to believe that overeating on the weekends could undo all the good eating during the week, and not surprisingly, I didn’t lose weight. Denial was one of the toughest things to get past, and it wasn’t always so fun. But at some point, I had to face reality, though I still resent it a bit. This 80:20 rule that people refer to, as in eating healthy 80% of the time didn’t work for me, maybe more like 95:5, maybe even 98:2.

Awh, so true!!!! I think so many times I work so hard during the week just to blow it all on the weekend… all those calories I burned off and avoided came back double time. Great advice Diane!

Sandrelle – Thanks so much for sharing that insight. I think you are very strong for being able to put childhood patterns behind you. I love that Dr. Oz’s quote too. It’s perfect!

Tammy – That’s a very good way to look at the weekend, just “x” number of days to go until weigh-in. Just think, someday you will be where you want to be, and there won’t be anymore weigh-ins!
