I hate to admit it but clean eating is HARD!!! I did really
well for about a week but then…
I got HANGRY.
Yes, I spelled it right…HANGRY!! I mean there are only so
many fruits and vegetables you can eat before you just want something filling.
And honey let me tell you, I found lots of “filling” foods this weekend.
Friday night the hubs Mom and Step Dad came into town, so we
took them to Ruby Tuesdays. I could have gotten just the salad bar or a low cal
entrée but I DIDN’T!! I got pasta, LOTS of pasta, and I ate every last bit of it.
Okay that’s just one meal right?!?! Oh no mam, not for me. A switch went off in
my head Friday night and I reverted back to my “eat everything in sight”
because tomorrow this ends mentality. Problem is, that lasted ALL weekend. Did
I have a great weekend? Yes. Did we laugh histerically at all of Chris’s jokes?
Yes. BUT I still could've had a good time without eating everything in sight.
Why do I feel like the only way to have fun is to get to eat everything I want?
Bless it.

| Top/Skinnes-JcPenney Flats-Target Chris's Mom and I went to get a mani Saturday and left the boys at home watching football. She's a nut and keeps me laughing. Guess that's where Chris gets it from! Hmmmm... I think I might start using a polish change on my fingers/toes as a reward for doing well each week. $6 isn't bad at all... and it makes me feel pretty. |
After church Sunday morning we ate lunch at RYAN’S before
saying our goodbyes to Chris’s parents. Sunday night, we went to a big fish fry
at church and by the time we got home I felt like absolute crap!! I was so
tired, grouchy and didn’t feel like doing anything. Dear Lord I over did it. I
knew I had to pull myself together. So, even though I had a million lesson plans
to write, I ran to the grocery store and picked up a few things. Then I packed
all of my breakfasts and lunches for the week.
 |
| 5 Breakfasts- 2-Turkey sausage and scrambled eggs 2-Cottage cheese, pineapple and grapes 1-Oatmeal 5 Lunches-2-Chili 2-PB2 sandwich and banana 1-BBQ chicken and green beans All I spent was $12 at the grocery store. Everything else was leftovers. Not bad!! |
You're gonna mess up!!
You're gonna eat like crap sometimes!!
You're NEVER going to be perfect!!
BUT you just have to hold your head high and get back in the game.

| Saturday in that pretty green shirt I felt just like this girl again... |
 |
| All 274 pounds of her!! |
 |
| THIS GIRL is who I want to feel like again. Being reminded of that is the reason I'm keepin on keepin on! |
