Bad Choices
Thursday, August 19th 2010
Well, it's been pretty crazy for me. On the weekend, my husbands family was in for a little reunion. I was pretty good, but some little slips slipped me up. Then we went to WI Dells with his sister and brother-in-law. Oh my..... the hardest part was ordering well in the restaurants.... you can't always have salad..... or maybe you can, but I didn't. I had some pretty bad stuff and now am regretting it. I didn't get to weigh in on Monday cause we were gone.. The hotel didn't have a scale ...A Take out Salad

I always bring my lunch to work and today, I just couldn't get it together. But I was out on the road and was near my favorite (old favorite) bagel place and remembered that they had salads and other healthy things. So I went in and got myself the best darn salad! (and no bagel). And they have FF raspberry vinaigrette too!It made me feel very very happy and satisfied that I had a good healthy lunch and it was easy to pick up and it was cheap! Have to do that again sometime.

But I also think it would be better if I spread the calories out more during the day. I do try, but sometimes I just can...Lower blood sugar

My doctor will be happy and I am lessening the chances of losing a toe, foot, leg, eye site or having a heart attack!!! I want to be healthy and happy. The weight is coming off very slowly, but I have time. I have lots of time. The lower blood sugar is a really good thing!Realize that change is a process.

Feel like giving up. Was good all day yesterday and then went out for dinner with my kids to an Italian place. They were all eating the bread and I tried some and it was so good I couldn't stop eating it. Normally I wouldn't take even one piece, but one piece and I was off. I had eggplant Parmesan, probably not the best choice and ate the whole thing. Then to top it off I had a glass of wine. Feeling really bad about myself and wanting to beat myself up over it, but I must resist the feeling ...Next »
