Okay so day 1 went pretty good until the end. My eating was right on track for the day. I had lots of veggies and fruit, fish for dinner. Near the end of the night, my kids were making butter tarts. Well of course you know what happened then, I had to eat some. Not just one though, I had 4!!! I went for a walk after that with Bailey, my retriever, to work some of it off.
I'm looking forward to watching Biggest Loser tonight. It's on the last couple episodes of the season. I get so much inspiration from these people. Can you imagine being on TV with the whole world watching you try to lose weight. I only wish I could have a chance at that. You really have no choice; all the right food is there for you, all the training, all the exercise programs, emotional support, and people are watching you all the time. How can you not lose weight? To have a support team like that would be awesome... or just someone to coach you on.
I'm on this journey myself for now. My family doesn't understand that I need to do this now for me. I just hope that once they start to see the changes, they will come on board with me. I've tried numerous time to change the way we all eat, but they always end up sneaking stuff, snacking, overeating...I gave up trying. And then fell back into the old ways. Now I will just concentrate on myself and what I need to do. Hopefully they will eventually see the light.
