So as you can see from the title, I'm not suffering from some weird addiction or vice. So I hope you're not devastatingly disappointed. But my weight is something that I want to take seriously. My previous post tells all the 'background', but not surprisingly, I got a bit wordy. I do apologize, and can guarantee it's not always going to be like that.
And if any of you do decide to stick around, I hope that you'll 'participate'. If you're already some workout fanatic, then please, share your tricks! And if you're finding that you want to drop a few pounds, feel free to check in daily as well! Just leave a comment to document your progress. It would actually be nice to know that I'm not alone in this thing.
I have to say, even though it's only been 24 hours, I had some success today. I ate oatmeal for breakfast, a super delicious salad for lunch and for a mid-afternoon I had a banana. But then we had our first 'post placement' visit tonight with our social worker and things went a bit down hill. I had a small piece of this chocolate cake/brownie thing that I had made the other day (I mean, it was only polite to not make her eat it alone, right?) and then I had spaghetti for dinner (and I'm pretty sure my serving size was too big). I needed to fix something quick since the meeting spilled over into dinner time... and well... that was easy. Oh, and I just had a grape popsicle. I love those things.
Well, tomorrow is a new day, and I plan on taking the kids for a walk. I'm hoping to make that a part of my daily routine each morning. Wish me luck. I think I may need it as I seem to usually quit right about now.
