FoodUpdate on yesterday's food. Well, after the shake incident, I had dry, sugarly cereal for lunch and drank a coke later.
But I did great for my dinner and evening snack and was not too bad over calories for the day. That shake was pretty small. The victory is in the fact that I didn't turn it into an all day binge. I got off track a little, but got back on. It took some major self-talk and turning around that a-or-n thinking, but I did it. I think I have much more confidence ...

Good news and bad newsGood news first: my jeans fit better today!
They are my size 12s and I can actually button them without nearly passing out. Before I was having to unbutton them when I was driving. 
So that is encouraging.
The bad news is that I had a big slip up today with food. It is pizza day at Collin's school which means I have to make him his own pizza. I didn't have time and I drove through Braum's and got him a meal with a shake. I got Carter the same thing. Well...

I am feeling somewhat down today and am going to just write about it and see where I end up.First, I am concerned about gluten in my diet.

As long as we were not sensitive and didn't have reactions then we would be fine. My own GI said to just listen to my reactions and let that be my guide. So si...

FoodI did pretty good today until tonight when the boys broke out the pretzels. I usually don't have a problem with these, but I dove into them tonight. And on top of that still had my protein pudding and now I feel really full.
The thing is I think I was having some anxiety about eating healthy FOR THE REST OF MY LIFE. I've been doing well and then it hit me that I'm going to have to always eat like this and it scared me. Okay, slow down, girl. Only take one day at a time.

decision made
Sunday, January 20th 2008
I made a decision about WW. In fact, the solution came to me while I was blogging about it the other night. I think writing the pros and cons really helped me clarify things in my mind. That's why I like blogging-it helps to sort things out. And I love getting input. All your input was valuable and gave me some additional insight.I decided WW is not right for me. If I feel like I need some face to face support, then I think I should find a good overeaters anonymous meeting. It's free,...
