Good afternoon! The day got off to a rocky start because I got on the scale. I am the highest I have been in a long time. I am really down about it. I am changing my name to Orca or Shamu! I know I should be happy that I am basically healthy and happy and I have a wonderful loving family. Why does food have to be so important to me? Why do I keep practicing self-sabatoge? Grrrrrrrrrrr!
Today is our 36th wedding anniversary. What a day to be in such a foul mood. Went to Target after class and stocked up on water for me and juice and snacks for company coming starting Wed.
I got up bright and early to teach my 8:15 Pilates class. I don't think the members are doing too well with getting out on a summer Monday to do Pilates that early. They meandered in, some with coffee, for 15 minutes into the class. I stayed afterwards to take the step for 1/2 hour. It was that super speed instructor but I stuck with it. I felt a twinge in my knee half way through so I was careful from then on. My feet weren't too bad. The main thing I felt was discomfort where the bones were cut. I understand that is normal but I see the doc Wednesday and I will double check with her.
Food...before class...decaf tea with low fat soy milk. Brunch...oatmeal with oatbran and ff milk, decaf tea with ff milk, peach.
Lunch...just a snack of maybe fruit
Dinner...salad, pot roast that is cooking in slow cooker, veggies.
Please help me stay with this! I am ready to tear what little hair I have out!

Now, ladies! Both of you have been exercising regularly and maybe your gain is muscle. How are your clothes fitting? At least you're making an effort. I should send you a current picture of me and then maybe you'd feel better.
Hugs,

Time invested in improving ourselves cuts down on time disapproving of others.

Well, get this: I had a great eating day up until about 10 p.m. last night - I was starving (dinner was too light, I guess), and would have just gone to bed on an empty stomach, but I made the mistake of opening my electric bill. I've never had an insufficient check in my life but it stated I had one on it!!! Last month, my bank debited my account for the electric bill payment twice!! I asked them to correct it, which obviously they didn't do properly! I was so upset I decided to eat something before I went to bed because I knew I would worry myself sick over this until today. I've been on the phone with bank & electric company all morning. I had to break one of my rules about eating late at night so I wouldn't toss & turn. This proves that sometimes certain stressful things DO interfere with our plans. We just can't feel guilty about it & just move on.
I just wanted you to know that we all have these instances that pop up and we change our plans in response to them. I think that as long as we walk down the straight and narrow the majority of the time with our eating & workouts, we will be ok!
Hugs and you can do it!!
