Is there anyone out there still reading my ramblings about food? I bet you're all fed up (get it fed, sooo nice to be fed) with all my whining and such. Well too bad! It is all I have to talk about and so that is all you get to read about.... That being said, food foooooooooooooddddd FOOODDDD! Tra la la la la
I have been having a weird week. For what ever reason, I have allowed myself to indulge. It hasn't been anything bad, but I have still let my guard down. Just because my dad is in town I think it is ok to take some liberties. How is that going to help me? I admit it is hard having people eat what ever they want around me, when yippie I get to eat medifast bars. Joy and rapture. We get home tonight from running some errands and there are my niece and nephew eating McDonalds. What is my first reaction? I start to pout. Pour Angela she doesn't get a cheeseburger and fries. Was I hungry? No, but someone had something that I wanted even though I didn't NEEED it. Things going through my head were: I just want a bite. why can't I have just a bite? And why do they get it and I don't? I almost threw a temper tantrum, pour baby Angela... can't have a cheesburger. : ( Oh you know I could have it, no one has told me I can't besides me. Thats right I have told myself that my long term goal is more important then that hamburger, or that french fry or what ever it may be. Doesn't mean I am not still thinking about it as I write this, but I know that I have again made the right choice for me.
I am having a bit of a hard time being patient also. I think with all the work I have been doing I should have lost like 40 lbs by now. Ummm Angela really REALLy unrealistic. I think I should see major results after just a month, I mean I have worked so hard. Reality check, 10 lbs a month although it is a lot it is going to take a good while before I really see any changes. I have to be patient and not get discouraged because things aren't happening as fast as I want them to or think they should. I know that it is a long uphill road, but I have on my hiking boots and I have my bottle of water and I am ready for the hike. At least I feel like I am right now!
Love Angela
I'm reading. Keep chugging along, the little engine that could. Sorry... I spend the day with two little boys, that's all I got. :)
ReplyDeleteYou're so cute with your tantrum. I'm glad you figured out that your goals are worth sacrificing for. Keep being fabulous.
ReplyDeleteJust think of how you feel when you reach your goal, it will all be worth it in the end and you will look back and realize that!
