I did NOT make good choices this weekend. At all. We ran all weekend - I took Friday off work to go to the cardiologist, and to help my husband get everything ready for our choir retreat on Friday night. Saturday - we spent a good part of the day cleaning up from the retreat, and another good part of the day shopping. Sunday - like always - was busy. We ate out almost every meal the whole weekend. When we WERE home - I was tired - bone weary exhausted.
I don't think I over ate - this surgery does a great job at preventing that. But I did not necessarily eat things that were good for me. Especially when I was at home. For some reason, the only thing I ever really crave - are salty snacks. (Certainly NOT the chocolate and sweets that I used to crave.) But typically, salty snacks do not have much protein, the one thing that I'm really supposed to eat. And they DO have salt - the one thing I am NOT supposed to eat. So, for me, they are pretty much just wasted nutrition opportunities. And I don't feel good when I eat them. And I know better. But this weekend, I didn't care. At all.
So, today, I'm ready to make better choices. No more Sun Chips. I'm going to do what I'm supposed to do. One day at a time.
I have posted a couple of new pictures - one of me in my bathing suit - and one of me in the new jeans - sporting the belt that a good friend made for me. The bathing suit picture is a stretch for me - I'm really putting myself out there. But I committed to being open and honest about everything - and wearing the bathing suit is a lot of what I have done this summer. I love the jeans and the belt, though. So much so that I went against what I ususally do on Sundays and wore the jeans and the new belt to church. Guess what - the roof didn't cave in! I had a lot of compliments, which made me feel good.
