Yesterday was day 8 and I ... yep ... ate. Oh, I know I'm allowed. But I really didn't have a set plan. When things go the 'same' it's easy. Slimfast breakfast, soup for lunch and a salad with or without white meat for dinner. An apple or dried fruit if I get hungry.
Yesterday was my mom - in - law's birthday party. We were supposed to eat at 4. Hmmm. I had Slimfast later - about 9 am. Then I had some pretzels, a few chunks of pineapple and some cut vegetables to hold me over till 4 where I assumed I might eat a bit more but I wasn't prepared for... eating at 6!! I am pretty confident we were told 6 - that was the time my husband told me ... twice. But I would have bet I was told 4. Or, maybe it was be there at 4.
Nonetheless, I tried to be good. I brought a fruit tray and a fresh vegetable tray. But there were chips - the potato kind - plain. I really love those. So I had a handful ... and a half. Then and a few crackers with dip. Some mulled cider with wine. Dinner was OK - I had chicken and salad but may have gone overboard with the toppings. And of course the pudding graham cracker cake.
At home? Well, I have no one to blame but me. Ritz crackers and this amazing dip with ham and onions in cream cheese.
Today! I am proud of myself. Slimfast for breakfast. Soup for lunch. Some fruit.
I know I am going to have days when things don't go well. It helps that I have who ever is reading this for support.
I don't suppose I have it here as I have a saboteur. His other title is husband. In the last 9 months out teen has lost about 52 pounds. Stunning for a kid. And with me on the band wagon, he's on his own. So he tried to lure me yesterday at the store with popcorn chicken. And hotwings with the son. Then there was the candy. And the chips. (Not the potato plain variety). He was trying to do I don't know what. But he didn't succeed. He need only wait till the birthday dinner I guess. hahaha.
Anyway thanks for reading and being with me. I appreciate it.
