I think the most frustrating part, is when I don't work... Lets be clear here- I LOVE my days off.. don't get me wrong. But I feel like when I'm in a rush, its easier to grab and go.. get everything set before hand. However if I'm home all day- or out the entire day, its hard for me to be good.
Yesterday my dad and I worked at the Kent Farmers Market from 8-2 and while there, I didn't eat. I did have a snocone- which isn't really good for you. But neither is going for 6 hours without eating. It was so hot out though, that even though I brought apples and nuts for a snack, I didn't feel like eating. We had BBQ for dinner, in which I tried to be good, but I was hungry.
I know it takes work, and I know its not easy. And luckily enough we don't have a WHOLE lot of junk in our house that's tempting.. and I've been really good about not eating out. Friday night we had a really late dinner, and we wanted something simple. My dad said just grab a burger and bring it home.. so I suggested taco bell so it would at least be a little better then burgers and fries... Not to say any fast food is good- but I tried to compare my options...
I have drank so much water in the last few days, I'm quite amazed with myself! Yesterday I had almost 2 liters before noon...
I try and drink a glass when I get up in the morning.. a bottle on my way to work.. and then I put a bottle in my lunch and refill it before going back to work... I've been doing really well- its just hard to force yourself to drink it. I LOVE water, I really do.. but I feel like I have to remember to drink it. With pop, I just drink it all the time, and am always thirsty... with water I'm not thirsty- so I forget to have it.
I'm worried about vacation at the end of the month!! We're going to Florida! That's going to be a hard one, to be good the whole time!!! But I'm going to try my hardest!! Its going to be hot, so water is definitely a must!! But I know I can make it work. Sucky thing is, I don't want to buy clothes, but I don't even own a pair of shorts... All my sundresses make me look pregnant, which is why I don't wear them in public.. and I don't want to wear pants the whole trip.
One day, it'll be me.... one day.

Go on vacation, eat what you want... in moderation! And go buy yourself some shorts. One or two pairs isn't going to be the worst thing that happens to you. I bought some new clothes for my trip to Seattle and Alaska and realized none of it will probably fit me next year but I still needed to feel confident and comfortable. You can do this! Don't be so hard on yourself! You're fighting this battle with yourself but you need to remember that you and your body are a team, not enemies. Bad food is the enemy.
