I am not a bird. Sorry, had to say it. I just have to eat more food than that. Vicki (my mother-in-law) I do not have your will power... no desire... when it comes to food. That is why you are lucky if you break the scale at 100 and I am trying to lose some weight. I didn't do so well today.
Had scrambled eggs and bacon for breakfast. Had 1/2 a turkey and avacado sandwich on whole wheat and a banana for lunch. Ate a bowl of chili between games and drank water (not the free chocolate milk). Was doing pretty well until the stress hit. Then, I found myself ordering cole slaw and an extra crispy chicken leg at KFC. As usual, I did not plan well. I've got to pack a dinner tomorrow and I told my husband that he is not to allow me to eat that fried food. Okay... so that's weak. I need to police myself. And I have been doing decent at it. Let the stress get to me tonight. I did not order the rootbeer float at least.
Finding the beauty in a storm. Finding the light at the end of the tunnel. Finding the flowers after rain. Well.... we have to look for them to find them. We can choose to simply dwell on the storm, stay in the dark, or not stick aroung long enough to see the flowers. I'm going to try to make lemonade out of lemons tomorrow. Wish me luck.
Well I became a statistic this summer. Eating out too much has made me gain back some weight. The husband has spoiled me way too much and we've been eating out too much. I have done some things well this summer though. I have reconnected with cousins and other family members, spent time with friends, and made some trips that were enjoyable and relaxing. I have taken the time to smell the roses and see the sunrises. Now if I can just cut back on the sweets during all this happiness! :D
