How about a small bit of gratitude for a change?  (Though I hope I don't jinx myself for saying any of this!)  Things I am currently grateful for:  my back seems to be doing better lately;  the return of True Blood; having a good book to look forward to reading every night.  The last two are silly and small, but  have actually done a lot to improve my mood.

Also, I am pretty proud of myself right now for having turned a really bad Saturday into a not so bad Sunday, and then a newly empowered Monday.  A multitude of botched events on Saturday had me feeling completely defeated by Saturday night...particularly fat, sweaty, anti-social, with no support from anyone and no willpower at all.  Somehow, however, I managed to realize on Sunday that that was just one day, and that I could turn it around if I really wanted to.  So I did.  I committed to going hardcore back onto Weight Watchers on Monday, and to concentrate on enjoying being healthy for the next five weeks.  I also decided that I will try my best not to stress about any of my usual things - job, friends, family, etc. until after my vacation.  Until then, I plan to work on sticking to WW, exercising every weekday, and looking forward to reading every night.  Keep it simple.  Of course, I'm only 2 1/2 days into this plan, but at least those two days have felt more positive than a lot of them last week!
