Bad day yesterday and a little worried about today!
I think I hit the bottom of my caffiene high yesterday (5 days w/out)! I started off feeling awful! (I also have PMS right now
).
My two boys and I went with my sister who lives close by and her two boys to my other sisters house in Meridian and then we went to "Funworld" (Like Chuck-E-Cheese w/out the charactars and pizza (Thank God!)) I ran out of water and had a few sips of my childrens drinks (WRONG!). We went back to my sisters house and I had a hot-dog w/ketchup and pickle relish and a small back of doritos.
We then went to Okatibee Water Park (where I DID get my excersize for the day), but I still felt like the walking dead and took a few more sips of a real coke (Off the bandwagon of coke and caffeine!
).
I did make some good choices though. I purchased shaved ice instead of a drink and when we went by McDonalds to get the kids a happy meal on the way home, when I really wanted a burger, I ordered a salad instead and ate mainly the meat and a little lettuce.
If I would have stopped there it would have been okay! BUT I came home and my husband had made supper so as not to offend him and because I didn't eat much (poor me) I ate a little squash and then I ate a little sf ice cream and a spoon of PB. I also made a glass of 1/2 diet coke and 1/2 regular coke (BAD BAD BAD!). I drank half of it and stopped myself and gave it to my son.
I'm starting off today right though! I have eaten a bowl of "Fibre One" and will have a protein drink b/f church and I started my day by logging on to this message board!
My concern though is that I have so much to do at home because I've been taking some "me" time and walking and such that my house has gone to pot (dishes, laundry, dust, you name it!) and tonight I am going to Moselle Memorial Baptist Church to hear a friend sing and they're going to have an ice cream social (which I told them I couldn't come) and then go back to my church to either take my boys (If I take them with me) to my husband where they're having an ice cream and sadwich social, or I will be going there to get the boys from him (If he's had them) because he can only take so much at a time (We're way to stressed out!).
Sonya is walking at 7:30 and that's where I want to be. I'm not sure what time I'll get back from Moselle and all the other factors, so please pray for me. I know this is small and minute compared to what others are going through, but sometimes I feel like I'm drowning! (PMS doesn't help!)
Sorry the message was so long (I'll get better), but this is the way my brain works most of the time.
Thank you all for your support! I'm so glad Sonya turned me on to this!

Sounds like you are recognizing the things you are doing wrong and that is the first step to getting back on track. Try not to be so hard on yourself and just do the best that you can. You will get back to where you need to soon. Keep up the good work with fighting those temptations and add the exercise in every chance you get. Best of luck!

Hey Joy,
Coke, Chocolate & Caffeine are EVIL !!!
We're programmed to think that money is the root of all evil, but it ain't.
It is FOOD & DRINKS !!!
I'm sorry that you had such a rough day. It will get better.
Just hang in there & wait for it to happen
Your not rambling !!!
Just talk all you want, I'll listen to all you have to say.
