Will Power Fading
I knew the day would come when my will power wouldn't be like it was the first week of this adventure. Well that day has come. I got off my game this last weekend and am having trouble getting back on track. I start the day off doing great and through the day, actually I make it through the hardest part of my day which is mid afternoon. Then evening comes and we start the running with baseball...UGH....baseball, will it ever end. We are in the end of the season tournaments and I can't wait for it to be over. Anyways, I get to the ball field early in the evening around 5:30 will power intact, then the smells from the concession stand start to waft my way. I slowly feel my will power fade away. I bring my own snacks but they don't look or taste nearly as good as pretzels with cheese or nachos or a hot dog. Last night I caved and had nachos and to be honest they didn't taste as good as I thought they would. Then we got done with the ball games around 8ish and everyone was starving hungry so I called in chinese. I know horrible for you even if you aren't trying to lose weight. So I woke up this morning feeling sluggish and bloated, BUT have done well so far today. I just can't seem to get my excitement back in my spirit. But I keep taking one step at a time knowing that when I go to weigh in and I lose pounds I will be glad I kept going forward even when I didn't "feel" like it.

Don't give up, Trish! You can do this and I know that you will! Actually Chinese can be okay even on WW. You just have to watch what you eat just like with any other type of foods. Look in the Dining Out Companion for the points values of many Chinese dishes. What I ate when we went out for Chinese a couple of weeks ago is the boiled shrimp, Chicken & Brocolli, egg drop soup (which is only one point!)and one of the BBQ Spare ribs on a stick. There were a few other things that I could have eaten but the particular ones were not at the restaurant we went to.
Anyway, just start fresh and new and go forward!I am always here if you need me!
How are you doing Trish? You haven't put up any new entries lately and I am concerned about ya! Wanted to see how you were doing.
Blessings,
