Why do we let family get to us? I was doing so good last week until friday. My sister and I have been "helping" each other along. She called me last friday to say that she was taking the weekend off diet for the Superbowl. So what did I do?...the same thing. Why? because I didnt want her to feel bad when I lost weight and she gained it. How stupid is that? I am done with that nonsense. I gained 6 lbs over sat and sun and have been trying to get it back off since then. So far I am back down 5 lbs so its not a lost cause. I am just mad at myself for giving in to her drama and erasing 3 weeks of hard work. NO MORE! I don't care how many times she stops her diet, I am not stopping anymore. What is more, I talked to my hubby who has high blood pressure and is pre-diabetic and he is going to do Atkins with me now. He hates taking blood pressure medication and this may allow him to get off of it. It will make things easier to prepare the same foods for both of us.
