Work was busy yesterday, but I made it through. For dinner, my family was going to go to The Adriatic Grill for dinner. I know its this nice Italian place where I could get a good cut of salmon or something somewhat healthy to eat, but my mom instisted on going to Red Robin because she doesn't like anything "funky" or "fancy". I was a little upset. I've been working so hard on trying to eat better. I did get a Boca burger on a whole wheat bun. I split a milkshake with my dad. My mom ate a whole plate of chicken strips plus some of my sister's unfinished chicken with extra sauce and finished off what my sister, dad, and I didn't eat of our milkshakes. My mom then asked me if I was in a bad mood because of all the health food I've been eating. Honestly!? How supportive is that? My mom has a weight issue herself. We should be supporting each other. Not shooting each other down! I was really upset with my mom. Just because I'm trying to do something good for myself doesn't mean she can sabotage it.
I'm going to boot camp again tonight. Maybe this will chill me out. Just me and Michele tonight though! Wish us luck!

Way to go with your choices at Red Robin. It could have been so much worse. I'm sorry to hear your mom isn't very supportive and I have a very similar situation myself. My mom is Hypothyroid and should really be careful about what she eats because certain things make it worse and the condition makes it difficult to shed the pounds. When I first started this journey she was incredibly angry with me all the time because I refused to eat out all the time unless we went somewhere I knew I could get a healthy meal. It really made me angry in the beginning, but I now I just let it go in one ear and out the other. I want her to be proud and supportive, but I think the most important thing is to be proud of ourselves because we can't control how others feel towards us or about us. You are in control of your life and only you can sabotage your goals! Have a great holiday weekend and be healthy.

I think it's just a mother thing. I think my mom feels guilty for not providing me healthy options growing up. She's stubborn, but I can't let her take me down. Not now! I'm still willing to do what it takes to help myself. Maybe I can set an example for her to do the same!
