This week has gotten off on a good foot! I had 2 major successes yesterday. First, I actually got off my butt and went for a walk on my lunch break. 1.58 miles...not too shabby. As usual my shin splints were raging, but I worked through it and felt very accomplished when I got back to the office. And my biggest gold star moment of the day...
We went the grocery store as we do every Monday. Right before we leave, we usually grab a donut or muffin for the girls. Kel and I sometimes get something, sometimes not. I was determined not to undermine my efforts through the day. I was waiting for Kel, half way up an aisle, far from the bakery. Kel walks to me with a large pice of chocolate cake from the bakery cart. He says to me "I'll get this, and you can help me eat it later". Wha-wha-wha-WHAT?!? (this is the lack of support from the home front that I consistantly whine about) He was really just trying to be sweet, and I totally appreciate that. But I spoke up and said "Uh...No I won't!!!" with a look of pure shock and torment. He got an almost hurt look on his face, and went to put it back. I back-peddaled a bit and told him he could get it for himself, but he had to hide the part he didn't finish, and promise that he wouldn't let me have any. And guess what? I went to bed with NO CHOCOLATE CAKE in my belly!
A shining moment for me, I must say.

Even though the scale did not reward my effort for the day, I'm happy with my choices and with a maintained weight. I'm hoping that a string of these days this week will bring on a big drop on Monday's true weigh day.

First of all, that is AWESOME that you did not eat the cake!!!!! But Kel seriously needs to realize what it does to you to even have it near you, let alone offer it to you! He needs to not even tempt you. He should be eating it far away from you so you don't even KNOW he got it!!! I know you're saying he was trying to be nice offering you part of it, but he HAS to realize that it's going to sabotage you! Tell him you love him and appreciate it but that what you really need is for him to help you succeed so you can feel good about yourself! *getting off soapbox*
bahahah....I love you and your soapbox!!!
