So it was weigh in day and I wasn't successful in losing weight this past week. I actually gained 2.2 pounds but i am still down from where I started. It's ok. I'm not down or depressed. I know this will happen and I just have to get back on the right track. I have increased my activity some and that makes me feel good. I was able to deal with shopping yesterday without too much difficulty. I woke up this morning and my back was killing me from the near accident yesterday so I haven't done much today except take it easy. Tomorrow will be another day.
We are planning a vacation later this summer and it will require a lot of activity on my part and I'm really scared about it. I don't know if I will be up to the challenge. Everyone is gonna expect so much out of me and will be mad if I can't meet their expectations. I want to back out of this vacation so badly but I have to push myself to go. I really want to but it will be tough.
I feel like such a burden to some of my family and not my immediate family but my extended family. I wish they would be more supportive but some of them aren't. Oh well. I am not doing this for them I am doing it for me.
I have been enjoying those clementines. Thanks mom for the suggestion to get them. They are delicious. Wanted grapes but they looked horrible so its bananas and clementines this week.
I have a very good friend who started weight watchers a few weeks ago and she also is writing a blog. One of her posts talked about growing up in the south and how all get togethers were around the kitchen table with lots of food. I didn't grow up in the south but do remember Sunday lunches always consisted of fried chicken, mashed potatoes, white gravy and when in season corn on the cob. In the summer time we had homemade ice cream all the time. Saturday breakfasts would consist of sausage gravy, homemade biscuits, bacon and eggs. You can see where my bad eating habits came from. I am in no way blamming my mom cause she wasn't the one who put the food in my mouth. It was so good I just kept eating and eating. Like I said before, on the farm I could eat like that but once I moved away I should have stopped. I LOVE FOOD plan and simple and food doesn't love me.
Well tomorrow is another day towards my goal. I am gonna be on track this week and do better. Thanks all for your love and support. Good night.
Don't be scared of your vacation. You continue on your journey doing the best that you can do. And if anyone is mad at you then that is on them and not on you. You keep your chin up and keep your eyes focused on where you are going and now where you have been. You can't control what you may have done yesterday or what you may have eaten yesterday. You can only control right now or what you may do tomorrow. You are going to be a success at this and you will make yourself proud. That is all that matters.
