Making better choices
Hey everyone,
Well after my very lax weekend, I'm back on track. Man have I been tested, but I'm happy to report that I'm succeeding. On Monday I have my Lean Cuisine dinner at my sister's house after being very good all day. Well for desert she had Krispy Kreme filled donuts. Oh good grief, I didn't need to be tested so soon. I opted for my Weigh****chers desert and felt very satisfied. Of course, after eating burgers and cake this last weekend I was back to craving carbs. I didn't falter and just drank my water. Now yesterday after again eating very healthy all day, I knew I couldn't face yet another TV dinner. I stay with my sister on Mondays and Tuesdays and unfortunately cooking in her kitchen is just not possible. I also got to babysit my 10-year-old nephew so decided to pick up Wendy's. Ok I know what you're thinking...how did she do? Well after ordering a burger meal with fries and a drink for my sister and nephew, I ordered a grilled chicken sandwich only with a bowl of chili for myself. I didn't even get a soft drink. I had to smell those darn fries all the way to my sister's house...absolute torture. Did I sneak even one fry??? Nope. I ate my chicken sandwich and chili happily knowing this was better for me. My sister still had KK donuts in the house, but I didn't even go there and had another WW desert.
All in all I have to say I'm very proud of myself. I know I will have days where I might falter, but I know I can dust myself off and not let it completely derail me. Before May, I would have just chucked in the towel. Life is good.
