So, I have been craving Dairy Queen for the last couple of weeks, and haven't gotten it. Yesterday, my darling husband comes home and announces to the kids that if they eat all of their dinner, we can go to Dairy Queen. On the third day of my new diet. Are you kidding me?!? I seriously considered staying home while they went. I did not want to miss that little bit of family time together, since we seem to get so little of it. I ordered a small cone. Not a medium Blizzard that I usually get, which cut a ton of fat and calories. It was yummy! I got to have a little treat, and didn't go totally overboard. Something else I have realized about my dieting failures is that I seem to be an all or nothing personality. If I cheat a little, I throw the whole day away and pig out, or I am so strict that I am miserable. I also realized that when I do slip up, I won't eat anything healthy and keep eating junk, because I don't want to waste the healthy food on a bad day. I have to be aware of this, and not sabotage myself over and over again. Tonight we may go to Kennywood, and I fully intend to have a Hot Sausage sandwich, something I love and haven't had in years. Because I know that I want to have that, I will be very careful about what I eat today. Progress!!
Today, I weighed in at 202.2! I am down 4 pounds! Woo hoo! I am proud of already accomplishing that much! Today I did the Shake Weight for 4, 1 minute intervals, and I also did Jackie Warner's 1-on-1 Lower Body. Still sore, and getting more sore as the minutes go on, and I love it! I am working my muscles hard, and I am being rewarded for it!
Tomorrow and Sunday will be a real diet challenge: work. French fries. I am planning to take some Lean Cuisines, a Slim Fast and fresh fruit with me, that way I will have enough good choices available to that and should be able to avoid burgers and fries. It is always best to have a plan!!!
