TGIF

What usually is my worst day at not eating like a full, was actually a good day for me. Stuck with a salad and some skinless chicken and a little chili with shredded cheese at lunch. It was off of a buffet where I passed on all sorts of bad stuff. After I picked up Austin from school (Chloe went home with a friend), we had a boys day out. He wanted some Steak and Shake, so since he got straight A's on his report card I obliged. It had only been a couple hours since I ate...but that used to not mean anything. It does mean something now though. I had a diet soda while he ate his meal and drank his milkshake. I'm not going to lie, that shake looked so good that at one point I probably could have licked what had spilled on the table off. Instead of lusting over a burger or cheese fries, I focused on having a good day out with Austin. Just an example of how I am decreasing food's role in my life. Eat to live not live to eat. For dinner I made cheeseburgers and used lettuce in place of buns. It might not have been Steak and Shake, but it was darn good to me.

This morning, me and Chloe weighed. She had stayed the same since last week. I explained to her that many things could cause that and not to get discouraged. She is doing so good and I know next week she will have a loss. I had lost 5 pounds since last week. Tuesday is my big weigh in though. That will be at work in full clothes, like I weighed in when I started this adventure at 403 pounds. Gotta keep on track and no stupid eating! More to add tomorrow, goodnight!
