Happy New Year's Eve my friends!!!
Sorry I never got around to a journal entry yesterday. Went to the doctor for a follow-up visit after my emergency room adventure and then Bob and I goofed off all day and didn't make it home until really late. We went out to breakfast before my appointment. I enjoyed a Denver omelet, hadn't had one of those in years. It was good. Then didn't really eat again, except for one Kashi bar I had stashed in my purse, until we got home at almost 11 pm!!!
Woohoo!!! Down to 196 lbs!!! LOL!!! Funny thing is I'm okay with it. I don't feel so downtrodden. It is what it is and the important thing is that I'm paying attention and taking care of myself. There is no way I'll be back to goal by my fatsecret anniversary on January 18th but at least I'll be well on my way. I will be down to goal before MEXICO ... and that is what is more important to me. Summer clothes must fit comfortably!!! Must feel okay in my bathing suit!!
I'm back to talking about my eating again with my husband. That is also good. I stopped. I was eating "secretly" although what a joke ... who exactly did I think I was hiding it from??? He is wonderful. He doesn't really understand my weirdness around eating but he is supportive. Me being honest, with myself and with him is important.
Getting ready to run to town to run some errands. I hope to return later today but if I don't ... know that I AM practicing kindness and I am so glad you all are here to support me. It has been an interesting year ... and despite all the challenges, prostate cancer, father-in-law's illness and death, financial stresses and strains ... I have MUCH to be grateful for.
