I have to pat myself on the back today.... Every Saturday my 3 year old son and I have a ritual... we do our errands in the morning and we have lunch at Wendy's. Over the past few weeks, I have stopped getting burgers and would get there Spicy Chicken Caesar Salad, a Lg. Diet Coke & a Small Frosty. So today, we went and Brady got his usual chicken nuggets, apple juice & frosty and the only thing I got was a side caesar salad and I barely used any dressing and a small diet coke that I maybe only drank half of. This is the first time, I can say that I walked in to Wendy's looking for the lowest calorie meal I could and actually sticking to it! Surprisingly, I am not very hungry .. but I am planning on making something healthy for dinner also.
For some reason, dieting seems easier than ever now... I would always sabotage my own diet but I am so motivated and feel so empowered that I just don't want to do anything that will ruin it... I don't know where exactly this motivation is coming from but it better stick around!!!!!
I tried to talk to my fiancé about how proud I was of myself with my election at Wendy's and overall with my weight loss and he just brushes me off... it bothers me that he can't listen to me or even offer some support.... he wants me to lose weight so I can be healthier, but yet shows no emotional support whatsoever. Approaching him about it, will just start an argument, so I am going to avoid it. I do have some friends around me who are there and my kids are cheering me on, so its better than nothing.
I also just went out last night and bought the new Wii Fit U and balance board. I spent a little over a half hour trying it out and I was loving it. It makes it not seem so much like exercise, but it tracks everything for you. Your weight, BMI, take pictures every time you do a body test so you can see how your body has changed over time.. I think that is another excellent motivating factor. It wears you out, but I can't wait to do it again tomorrow!!!
