JMA312's Journal, 25 January 2018

ok day 4 of the 4 day DP. Seems ok. Although last night I had issues with the prune juice, ok I won't go in to detail, but just to say, next time I think I might drink less :-) Plus I don't know if the chicken & tomatoes were cooked right. I used canned tomatoes, next time I'll use fresh and pan fry (no oils) the chicken in strips BUT for the most part I'm feeling super :-) My scale (the evil box) didn't show much change and again when I go off & back on it is different. I really need a new scale and will get one eventually. I did weigh myself on the shop (balance) scale with my clothes on (of course!) so I know where that sits and it was on the high side, but I had jeans on and it was mid morning. But at least it will be a guide line. I am looking forward to when I get in my 'weight zone' and then I'll use that scale with the same clothes & same time of day at least once a week to keep as a guide.
Still not sure what this weekend will bring, But my intentions are to remain good and eat sensibly. The only thing is weekends are tough for me and now that my BFF is here for 2+ weeks I know she will be temptation for me. However she knows and for the most part respects my woe and the issues I have. It is just that she keeps saying that I look good and don't need to loose weight and etc etc, all the while she keeps food & snacks around that are my downfall and likes to go out to eat, which is also not good for me. So I just try to stand strong, but let me tell you it is NOT easy and sometimes I just want to give up at least while she is here (she will say that also, why don't you diet when I leave?), BUT she is overweight, and takes meds and still eats the wrong stuff (at least for me it is wrong), she says she doesn't have the obsessive eaters symdrome like I do, which is probably true since they (her mom & her) always have candy, cakes, bread, alcohol and stuff around which they can eat and not overdo (for the most part) and I would not be able to have that stuff in my house! So I just have to be kind to myself and remind ME that it is my woe, my issue and super that they can control it (not really, but that is not for me to say!) BUT I can't. So I will just smile, say thank you but no, EEEKKK Then there is the 'oh one little bite won't hurt you' or 'just taste it and tell me what you think' or etc etc. OHHHHH give me strength.
I think I will hang up my fav little dress that I can't get into right now, but I know it is just around the corner if....no WHEN I am being good, kind and doing what MY body needs and really wants :-)
HUGS to all :-)
