    I'm so proud that I did absolutely nothing that I was supposed to do today. It was a great feeling, now maybe the hubby will finally figure it out.

    He won't! There will just be more waiting for YOU to do!

    I brought my own healthy snack and water to the movies today instead of buying super butttery popcorn and a soda. It was WAY cheaper too :)

    And I started taking multivitamins so I'm not missing anything from my diet!

    You are a trooper! That is the hardest for me to do! Great Job!

    I have felt ravenous all day today and I:

    1. Allowed myself to have two Hershey's nuggets from the candy dish on my boss' desk, tracked it and did not binge
    2. Otherwise ate only the healthy foods I brought with me

    I'm pretty darn proud of that.

    I also realized that my hunger isn't *really* hunger. It is exhaustion from a busy weekend without enough sleep. And I'm going to see my therapist tonight and tell her that last week I decided I finally ready to make a change and my first week was a resounding success!

    I told my wife and kids I love them, hugged them, and kissed them.
    I have tried my very best to show my wife I love her and to not grope her at every chance I could.
    I told my wife how beautiful she is and helped her with some of the chores around the house.
    I apologized to my wife for making a mistake.
    I let her get some uninterrupted rest as she is not sleeping well.
    I have also been a more kinder gentler daddy to my kids.

    Oh and I started my exercise program today after a 2 1/2 year hiatus due to a car accident and neck surgery. I used the elliptical machine at my apartment's exercise room for 60 minutes, level 10 (out of 20; 50%), and burned 610 calories.

    Did I mention I keep telling my wife how wonderful and amazing she truly is :flowerforyou: :blushing: :heart: :tongue:

    Not Andrea Yatesing my children...(don't judge unless you have had at least 4 kids, ranging from 2-13) This is a major victory every single day. j/k only every other day!

    Oh and I guess logging my food, even when I don't eat the greatest!

    I know exactly how you feel. I have five kids (4, 9, 16, 18, and 21). Two are grown and out on their own; however my four year old has ADHD (has been pre screened by child psychologist), my 9 year old has ADD, and my 16 year old who thinks he knows everything, argues (debates) everything, and thinks his poo poo doesn't stink.

    I do love them dearly and am doing my best to adapt and adjust to them.

    A former co-worker stopped by today with my favorite cake donuts from a bakery about 45 miles away. I graciously accepted the donut, as these are my ABSOLUTELY FAVORITE treat, went and got myself a fresh cup of coffee, S-L-O-W-L-Y enjoyed half of the donut, then threw the rest away knowing i didnt want the extra calories.

    By doing this I will easily be able to stay on track today and make my goal, eating the whole donut would have made me sacrifice other things in order to meet my goals.

    I exceeded my exercise goal for the day, have made healthy meal and snack choices, and most importantly made it through the worst work day of the week. boo to Mondays!

    Keep up the good work. It will pay off for you. I believe in you.

    I told myself I would walk two miles and then did a third. Also at lunch my grandmother offered to get me ice cream and I turned it down since I really was full. Yay!

    I'm helping to make a pretty ladies bad day better.

    And if it means a plane ticket is necessary in order to do so...so be it.
