Saturday check-in
Hello,
Well I didn't do as well as I wanted today but I'm going to take things one day at a time and I know that my sugar and food addiction isn't going to go away in a day, a week, a month. All I can do is try.
Today started off pretty good. I got up and walked 2 miles on the treadmill and rode 10 miles on the stationary bike. I also was motivated to clean up the house a bit too. I got a new car today..didn't expect to buy a new car. I went for an oil change. Well...the place had small bags of popcorn..I didn't eat breakfast, so I had a small bag of popcorn. Then, the Owner had a birthday cake there. My husband brought a piece to the table..I had a few bites but I proud of myself for not eating a whole piece to myself. I could have eaten a whole piece and then some. BUT I DIDN'T. My question to you is this..How can you stop people from encouraging you to eat? It's hard to say no, at least for me it is.
Breakfast...small bag of popcorn and a few small bites of cake
Lunch.....a cup of chicken chili..from Chili's YUMMMY and a few bites of salad
Snack....we went to an idoor football game and I had a small bag of cinnamon almonds *not a real good choice but it was better than a filled pretzel and some nachos..I wasn't hungry but again wanted some because everyone else wanted and was eating them.
Dinner..a few bites of a plain cheeseburger...was hungry
Snack..small ice cream cone from Mcdonalds...was going to get a McFlury with M&M's but I didn't.
Things don't look so good when I write them down. However, I could have eaten alot more and alot worse things today.I'm going to try it again tomorrow and work on things meal by meal. I was good for dinner though....My husband went through the drive thru at Taco Bell and he asked me about three times if I wanted something..or why don't you get this or get that. It was hard for me to say no but I didn't get a burrito like I wanted or an enchirito. One step at a time I guess is what it is all about.
Hopefully we can encourage more people to join us here ;)
I'll post again tomorrow
Take care!
