so, i am back to work with permission to wear regular shoes. it was a very painful day, but i hobbled through! i started yesterday off good, protein shake and cereal for breakfast, salad for lunch, yogurt for snack and then went to work with out dinner-my downfall. i was going to get something to eat on my break but didn't. i got home hungry and ate a 1" wide piece of original sub sandwich, followed by about 30 vanilla wafers and a 12 oz glass of 1% milk-not a good choice, i know. will have to start fixing healthier choices to take to work, or have on my return. things that won't weigh so heavily on me late at night.
haven't had anything to eat yet today, and it is 12:30p. i am planning on having a hamburger with mayo, ketchup, lettuce, tomato, on a half bun. maybe a small salad, and yogurt before going to work. have to think about what will be healthy for dinner that can be taken with me. wish me luck!
daughter started moving today. one more week for me to move. have to do some painting and general household clean up during the week ahead. on my foot, that should be enough to tolerate.
i was given permission to start walking again, but limited to being on my foot no longer than 2 hours. that sounds like a long time, but when you factor in everday things with the walk, it is not that long. have to make the most of it!
so that is my entry for the day. i am hoping that i have a good eating day ahead of me.

so today is the 19th, i have not been accountable for my weight almost exactly 2 weeks. having to hobble around due to foot surgery really discourages me from thinking of my betterment. i must quit giving in to myself, and account for the bad eating habits and lack of physical activity. have not been able to weigh in because of the soft cast on my foot, but am pretty sure i have not had any loss. it is stupid how i fool myself into thinking i am not MUCH different than last year, but then i get out the clothes and they are more difficult to get into, and the shirts are snug, whereas last summer they actually hung loose on me. next weekend begins another new phase of my life: living alone. i am hoping that being alone and accountable solely for my own actions inspires me to take better care of myself, especially weight loss. i would love to come off blood pressure medicine by the end of the year. i will have access to an exercise facility, along with a pool, and there is always my elliptical and walking. i plan on making healthy food choices at the grocery store since i will no longer be buying groceries for others, so hopefully will be able to avoid giving into temptations-at least better than i do now. tomorrow i go back to the foot doctor and hope i have clearance to start walking on it for exercise and not just necessity. i do still have pain, but only when i overdo it. have to realize and accept my limits. maybe by june 1st i will be able to say i have had some success. wish me well!
