I bet you didn't think I'd be back so soon. Well... this time around my willpower isn't what she used to be! The kids and I, (I have 2 little sweet things. A 5 year old daughter and a 3 year old son), went on an outing to pick up daddy and bring him to the dentist. After that, for being SO good, we went to a Chinese Buffet place of yummy. I was REALLY pretty good - at first. I had a salad and a little tiny portion (fist size... that's what they say and all...) of pork chop. I also had a small portion of baked potato cubes, (WAY less than I usually would've had). Good for me, right? Wrong. Well... Girl child didn't want some of her fries, so I ate some. Then boy child wasn't eating his breaded chicken fingers, so I ate some. After that, both of them wanted dessert. Hello! There's a FREAKING CHOCOLATE FOUNTAIN in this place! That didn't get me though. It was the scoop-your-own ice cream station that did. I just had a teeny tiny scoop, (really I promise), but I still felt bad in the end for having consumed it.
Words for the day:
NOTHING WILL TASTE AS GOOD AS
HEALTHY AND SKINNY FEELS.
I need to remember this next time I'm out.
NEW RULE: I have to stop consuming things off of my children's plates!
So, now we're home. My handsome hubby is sleeping off the Novocaine and the kids are playing nicely. I'm full but still considering EATING SOMETHING! It's a boredom thing. Perhaps I should go clean a room or do some laundry but I ALWAYS find myself standing in that KITCHEN looking at the pantry full of nonsense thinking, "There must be something in here I can just snack on that isn't terrible for me." I realized this was the actions of a crazy person so I came up to blog instead. T-minus 40 minutes until the Kid's Club opens at the gym and the four of us can scoot over there and I can do something away from that KITCHEN, (I'm really starting to harbor some angry feelings towards that place... it's quite possibly very unhealthy).
Here are today's words of wisdom, (again... thank you, Pinterest). I'm trying REALLY hard to follow them!
Wish me luck on my road to Mrs. Skinny Teacher! Clearly, I need it!
Tomorrow will be better. I have a splitting headache today and I keep thinking there is no way I am going to be able to stick with this no carb thing. I just want a banana and cereal. We will see. I just might have to switch to ww. Salad and meat...yuck!
ReplyDeleteJamie, we will get through this together!!! Put down the cereal box! Step away from the Banana! Things will be easier next week without those KITCHENS around. We should go in the classrooms this weekend and get all of the naughty food/candies out!
