Well, my day got a bit harder after I posted yesterday. The cookie jar was calling me and I don’t even like those cookies! LOL I kept swigging water when I had an urge to cheat! And, I was victorious!
Really, this way of eating is not too hard. But the salads are really upsetting my stomach. :( But I’ve always had a bit of a wimpy tummy when it comes to lettuce. I think I’ll have a spinach salad instead today at lunch. See if that helps.
This morning, Eric’s blood sugar was about 1/2 of what it’s been lately so that was a huge blessing!!
As Dad commented, this is a lifestyle change…just going along with the other changes we’ve been making for the last 6 mos or so.
Got on the scale today – and that was depressing. I gained 12 lbs in last year. I’m not going to obsess over the scale because it’s never been my friend.  I want to get my measurements and go by that instead.
Well, bills, work and knitting are calling me. Sadly I don’t think I’ll have time for knitting (play) once the work is done! But at least tonight is Knit Night!! 🙂
Good plan Amy. Remind yourself you either dont really like/want whatever is ‘calling’ you, and fight back with water! Or tea…:-)
Hope to see you tonight…I hope, I hope…
That’s awesome about Eric’s blood sugar. You are doing great – the cookie jat might have called, but you didn’t answer.
