    1) Not buying a candy bar at the store. Instead I bought green tea packets for my bottle water! :)
    2) Ordering that bean burrito fresco style, instead of getting a taco fresco style. I am glad I let myself indulge. 200 calorie difference but I really wanted it!

    I kept my cool when my husband allowed his son to put a 3 foot hole in the ceiling of our bedroom.

    Explanation: My husband and my 20 y.o. stepson went up in the attic to look at the a/c system because it wasn't working properly. My husband failed to warn his son to only step on the beams - not the sheet rock. Not knowing any better, my stepson walked (or tried to walk) across the attic. Hence the gaping hole in my ceiling and the insulation and sheet rock pieces on my bed and bedroom floor. But at least my stepson is fine and the a/c is fixed (thanks to the tech - not my husband). The hole is still there.

    Did my run even though I really didn't want to, and broke an 8 minute mile!!!!! Really made me proud of myself because a year ago that NEVER would have been possible. Shows me that all the hard work I've done hasn't been for nothing. :)

    Went to Pilates this morning and shopped at Costco on the way home, I did not buy the black licorice that tasted so great (I had a sample sized piece) and then ran for the checkout :)

    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!

    Worked out in a weight loss class at the gym and lived through taking the grand kids and their cousin (ages 7, 6, 4 and 2) to 1) The store to buy the 4 year old shoes 2) McDonalds to play and have ice cream 3) Putt-putt golf, arcade games and pizza 4) 1 1/2 game of bowling. Leaving in about 20 minutes to go to a minor league baseball game (but I will have 3 more adults for help tonight). Oh, did I mention, it was over 102 degrees out today!

    I logged my day, before dinner, and I'm still under by a little, so when I take a walk later, I may get to have the skinny cow ice cream sandwich I want!

    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 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:
