At least I have been honest and truly tracking what I have been eating. I think that is why I am so low on weekly points, is because I have been truly more honest than I have been in a long time about tracking. I haven't been so great on drinking my water. That is going to be my goal tomorrow, is to drink at least 8 glasses of water, if not more.
When we got home today from our adventure day, I packed lunch and dinner for tomorrow, since it is going to be such a long and busy day. I packed plenty of fruit, a salad and 2 Smart Ones.
So, weigh in will be on Thursday. I am hoping for the best.
Yes, be honest with yourself...but also be honest positively!!!
ReplyDeleteMy quiet time (after everyone has gone to bed) is my comfort food time too...not sure what to do about it...because I cannot just go to bed~that is the only time of day when NO ONE NEEDS me!
:)
oh, btw...you HAVE NOT been overweight your entire life!!! You really should change that... :)
love ya'
Thanks Christy - It is amazing how necessary that quiet time is. It is the time when I don't do anything except what I want to do. It is exactly the time of day when there are no demands. As much as I love my husband and my kids and wouldn't trade them for anything, they do take a lot out of me and that quiet time recharges me.
ReplyDeleteAs for being overweight, I can remember my pediatrician telling my mom that I was a big girl and she needed to watch what I was eating. It has taken me a long time to come to terms with the fact that I have a large body type and am larger than most girls/women.
It also didn't help that my nickname in grade school was "Howard the Cow" and got fat jokes all the time. If you hear it enough then you start to believe it. It's amazing how grade school traumas impact your adult life.
But, as I get older, the more I am learning to accept my body and celebrate my health and my family.
Love you and miss you!!!!
