Today didn't go so well points wise. I was out of the house all day long, in the sun...exhausted and hadn't eaten all day.
My day went as follows: I was down at the barn by 9:30, cleaning stalls and loading tack into my truck until 11:30, driving to the new barn by 12:30, driving back with the girl who was pulling the trailer to the old barn to pick up the horses by 1:30 and then once we got back to the new barn with all three horses, I was there until like 5 and was STARVING! Wienerschnitzel was on the way home and screaming my name. So I had a couple of chili cheese dogs with chili cheese fries. i had half a piece of cheesecake left over from last night and finished that off. By then it was 5:30...had to get ready for the show. We get to the show literally ten minutes before it starts so we had time to grab a couple of drinks and find our seats. NO snacks were bought! As we were walking back to my truck I felt like I was being eaten from the inside out...i was sooooo hungry. So we stopped by Jack in the Box.
Although it was not such a good day as far as eating goes, I am still hopeful for the rest of the week. I have no idea how to even gauge the exercise I got today and know it is not really a wash, but figure I got enough in that if i just try to have as close to zero point days as possible for the entire week, I may be able to get myself back on track. Next weekend will be hard too though because my mom is coming down to visit with my sisters and cousin. That is a recipe for disaster.
on a final note...I want to thank Cheeks for the suggestion of chewing gum...that is usually my back up for EVERYTHING when I am craving something or just hungry. I will chew a piece of gum for a couple of hours. Most of the time it gets rid of needing to eat...but unfortunately...i can't have gum because of my braces. :( I think that has been part of my problem this time. There is nothing out there that i can just sit and chew on that won't effect my braces in one way or another. So...I will try to hang in there with this whole thing and try to get back on track. No more big talk...just true honest effort...as much as i can possibly stand to put into it. Small goals will get me to where I need to be. I am determined to look good for my husband when he gets home and if I want to do that...I need to buckle down and do this!
