Kinda proud of myself.

So, normally when I get completely frustrated and upset about something I turn to junk food. Last night was a really bad night with my pre-teen and I stayed away from the junk!!!! I really wanted it and almost went to the pantry, but then I decided I really didn't need to do that. I've been working too hard lately to ruin it with junk.

Another thing that is kinda exciting. I had someone tell me that I look like I've lost weight!!!!! I had to laugh about it after the fact because after she said it she said, "Not that you were fat". I let her know that I am over weight and know it. That makes two people now that have noticed I've lost weight!!!!

    Great job! I was also tempted by a bag of crisps last night...almost went to the kitchen to get them but realised that I didn't need them and then forgot about it!

    That is sooo awesome.... It's one choice at a time, and the hardest choices to change are the ones that come from emotions..... WAY TO GO!!!!!!

    Feels great to have someone notice... congrats. Good for you for not turning to food. I did the same on Sat. I got mad at my youngest son and instead of eating or yelling... I left the house and went for a 3 mile power walk. Came home with my head clear and proud of myself. Keep up the good work.
