View BECKAMARIE's food & exercise for this day
I avoided the scale quite successfully over the last several weeks. I also justified eating like a fool because of my marathon training schedule. I also missed my March 25th goal by ...Oh... the better part of 10
POUNDS!!!
I told the darling husband he's 'on duty' again last night. He knows what that means. He now has permission to ask if I'm sure that I want to eat something I'm about to put into my mouth. He's very good at it. He gently asks if I'm sure I want that, and only asks once. Most of the time I say "of course not, dammit" and put it down and once in a while I say "ABSOLUTELY" and eat it anyways. But it does help slow me down and I refuse to eat in secret, it's a personal thing.
My first marriage was riddled with deceipt and as silly as it is I will not hide anything from my darling man, even a piece of chocolate. Because he loves me above all and I understand and respect that.
On a lighter note.... I decided to be brave and get a bag of salted, organic, roasted soy nuts for mid morning snack at work. Gawd, it's a good thing a serving is only an ounce, I don't think I could choke down more than that in one sitting...
It does help with the water intake.
We stopped at Trader Joe's this weekend and I finally got some 'Better 'n Peanut Butter Spread' which if you are a peanut butter aholic like myself, that stuff is a godsend! I think I'm in heaven with my 2 new jars.
The hubby made homemade vegetable soup with whole wheat pasta last night. He made 8 qts. so we'll have soup all week for lunch or dinner. We are both leftover hounds and love having soup in the freezer.
He was pulling chili ingredients out on the counter this morning so I guess he's feeling hungry.
I don't have to worry if he's fed or not, he's a calorie watcher too (big 10 college wrestler) so we don't have any issues with sitting down to a meal much. That's what restaurants are for!
So we'll see what the next month brings... a 10 pound loss would seriously lift the spirits. Time to get serious!
333 miles run & 3300 crunches since 1/8/06!
