Wait...Did Someone Say Cake?

I was doing very well on my weight loss goal. I had lost 38 lbs in 4 months without much effort but in the past 6 weeks I have gained about 7 back. I am perplexed as to how I can be very health driven for 4 months and then suddenly revert back to bad behavior. Ok, let me rephrase...bad behavior would be cheating on my taxes or maybe going on a killing spree. So gaining weight not "bad" per se. Bad might keep me out of heaven... gaining weight won't keep me out unless I cannot physically fit through the "pearly gates" lol. I'll say I reverted back to unhealthy behaviors. They say (ahhhh who are THEY?)...they say 21 days forms a habit. So after 120 days what the heck happened to my newly acquired habit? Apparently the desire for delicious calorie laden food can override habit formation. Why don't "THEY" tell ya that? So I set a plan to get back on track a few days ago. So far I have been making healthier choices. But between you and I (hello is anyone out there) I don't like it one bit! Yes I can live longer and yeeesssss my body will thank me for it. But it's just no fun. I am starting to understand why I did not form a habit in 120 days...my brain never really accepted it as a change. It is like I was playing the role of a healthy person but I did not actually become one. Maybe I never will. So my new plan is to play the role for another 120 days and lose another 40 lbs in the process. I did it once...a second time piece of cake. I got this... Wait....did someone say cake? :)
