Derailed

Leave it up to my Grammy to ruin a diet, and she didn't even try. My Grammy passed away on the 14th so I traveled back to Montana last Sunday and was there most of the week. Needless to say any time spent around my family has nothing to do with a diet or eating well. Or I should say healthy, we eat quite well.

So I have officially started yesterday. I didn't do my body fat measurements so I might try tonight but I started at 153.8, as you can see what happens when you visit my family. Yesterday was a little rough. I took the fat burner with breakfast, 3 of them and I don't think I have ever been more productive on a Sunday morning but I felt like Jason Statham in that movie Crank. I cleaned my closet, got rid of some clothes and shoes, organized my necklaces, put on all the missing buttons from my pants, organized my button box and cleaned the house. Then we went to the movies so I packed up veggies and off we went. Not too bad, after Chris ate his hot dog. Too end on a wrong note, I took 3 more Hot Rox right before bed. Needless to say, I'm not sure I slept last night. Good thing for Power Drive this morning or I don't think I would be here.

So I have thought about this for a while.  Do I actually write this post?  Do I put my dirty laundry out there for everyone? Or the handful that read my blog.  And if I do, what do I say? Do I slam those involved?  Do I take the high road?  When is a “good” time to put it out there?  A few days under my belt and there is probably no better time. So no secret, my ex-boyfriend was my coach.  That worked out mildly well while we were together but add a breakup and somehow it just doesn’t work out as smoothly.  Add a few of the worst things a person could do to another in there and disaster doesn’t even begin to describe.  But I have this eternal belief that I can make any situation work.  That I can fix things.  It’s what makes me good at my job.  I’m an eternal optimist. But it’s what causes me to not be so good at my personal life.  Even when things are clearly not good, I still think I can fix it and make it right...

Weekly eating

The struggle is real.  Between working and them finding time to eat some thing other than takeout pizza, do my physical therapy, spend time with the baby and the husband it is seriously hard to fit it all in. Oh and sleep.  The older I get, the more sleep becomes non negotiable. We are also trying to eat with McKenna so she sees us eat and follows suit. It also allows me to give her things off my plate, which she definitely is more interested by.  This has actually been a huge struggle as our window in the evening is so limited with her, I don't want to spend it cooking and not spending time with her.  So the goal is to keep our meals simple and do as much ahead of time as possible. The downside to this is the Husband and I usually spend time chatting and relaxing during our meals as it’s always been our alone time together. But sleep. So I came up with a plan for the week and cooked the majority of our food on Sunday.  I really only made salsa because my freez...

Defensive eating

I like to think I have complete control over what i eat, how much and when. It's my body, who else would have control? Over the last week, I have realized the level of influence the person you live with can affect it. I have lived for a while with someone who has no self control and thus sees a package of cookies on the counter and eats the entire thing or eats an entire 1 lbs bag of PB M&m's in one sitting. So instead of eating just one of my favorite cookie, I would eat 3 or 4. Yes I know cookies will not be gone forever but in that instant I become territorial and eat more than I normally would. It makes me wonder about the strange behaviors those in large families must have about food. Clearly our parents define a lot about the relationship we have with food but this realization brings to light a whole new level of influence on my eating. There has been a package of cookies on the counter that's been there since Monday and is still half full.
