Life is a sum of all your choices.
- Albert Camus
So, today I decided to talk about the poor choices I have made that got me to where I am and how I just couldn't seem to beat it until now...that is.... I am going to take this one day at a time and at times, one minute at a time. I absolutely love food!
Food has always been what I have used to feel.. When I am mad, frustrated, sad or any other feeling, food was who I went too...I am a carb junky! I could eat Pizza, and pasta & all the greasy foods til I couldn't eat anymore! Not all at once of course, I'm just giving you a visual of the foods that I absolutely love! Potato chips, omg, I love them as I have said before. And because of those choices I am where I am today and need to lose a lot of weight. I said I was not going to talk numbers for a while, and I'm not, eventually I will! But my doctor has said, "it's just a number" It does not define who you are" and that is so very true!!! So soon enough, I'll talk numbers!
For some reason, this time around, the cravings are gone. They were there for a few days, but are really gone, I guess because I'm drinking so much water & eating lots of fruits & veggies & have discovered I like things that I would never have tried otherwise! It's crazy! Tomorrow Lexi wants to have a chicken stir fry again! I'm game because I really enjoyed it. I think we will have potato's with it too! This way we will have a little more substance to it.
Tonight is going to be a short post. I didn't eat anything out of what I was supposed too! OH wait, I went to church and for communion I had a quick dilema! The bread is actually crackers, and I took a gluten free ity bity piece to have instead of taking a regular cracker,but I was not giving up having my communion at chuch! So that was good that they had the gluten free one, or I don't know what I'd have done!
I had an old boyfriend tell me something very sweet tonight, he said "he would travel to the ends of the earth to see someone as special as me" Thought that was sweet, but he knows I have a boyfriend and am very happy, but he just felt the need to say it! This is an old boyfriend from when I was 20. Nice guy, but he lives way far away & we are just friends! But it was still sweet to hear it, and to take the compliment! That's something that has always been hard for me. I'm learning to say thank you when someone pays me a compliment. That has always been hard for me!
Oh, I bought a new pair of boots tonight! YUP! & I Saved $35.00! I love clearance sales! I needed new boots, so I had looked online then went to the store to buy them! SO glad I did! I don't usually buy stuff for myself!
Well Tomorrows post will be more interesting, I'm exhausted from the sleepover the girls had last night! Only one extra child tonight, but she's a permanent extra in our household, she's like one of my own & I had a great time at the mall with Lexi & Amber. They are such great kids!
Have a good night!
Godspeed!
