YAY! Today is my bubba's CAKE DAY & I celebrated with him last night with what I'm calling a "single carbup day." Yes, I've been doing a little study about those dreaded-but-obviously-necessary cheat days & I've decided to do what the the "muscle heads" do & EMBRACE it as a needed thing for ONE day and then go low-NO carb the very next day... Ok so, I have yet to "hit the cardio" so no, it's not quite the same but...I finally GET IT! ONE day is all I need to celebrate special occasions. I get it, I really do. I gained A pound. A pound. That is in itself, MONUMENTAL because after all of my previous "carbup" days, I did NOT weigh myself out of shame & disgust. That shame & non recognition of what my weight is actually doing had me USUALLY spiraling downward & out of control for another day...or two. But not this time. I'm happy to take that ONE pound & that ONE meal & then that ONE day of recovery. I'm actually happy to take that pound back for a loved one because now I know how to easily get rid of it again. Thank you Lord. :)
