I am so frustrated with myself lately. I have been feeling unmotivated, unattractive, uninspired and just plain FAT.
This past week I hit an all time high (non-pregnancy) weight. Gasp! In light of this completely understandable misfortune, I have decided to stop hanging out at the doughnut shop. It's not just the doughnuts that are contributing to my weight. It's eating out in general. I leave the house with great intentions, but put me in front of the glowing menu board at any drive-thru and I lose all self control. In addition to the eating out problem, I appear to have a lot of food addictions/trigger foods that send me over the edge. I will seriously make up excuses to see a crummy movie just to get my hands on some buttery popcorn. After ingesting this tantalizing treat, I will fall off the wagon for days as I crave everything sweet and fried.
I really don't want to be a fat mom or a fat wife, but I'll have to talk more about that tomorrow. It's late, and I'm hungry.
So here's the deal. Today I have limited myself to just the basics. Protein shakes, protein bars and water are all I've eaten today. I know that is not smart, but I ran out of grocery money because we spent it all on fast food. How sad is that? I guess my thinking is that if I can avoid all of my trigger foods for a few days that I will have more willpower. We shall see.
My sister-in-law has a blog where she actually posts a daily photo. I love this idea, and I may start doing it as well. For now I will just say that I have my boxing gloves on. I'm ready to battle this weight thing.

LOL. Your sister-in-law just gave up on the daily photo idea. That doesn't mean she has given up. I think I am going to convert my project to a 52 instead of a 365.
ReplyDeleteI'm jumpin' back on the wagon with you. Dinner at the Crystal Palace last night was over-the-top (or at least the two margaritas were).
