Is it only Wednesday?

Aah! I'm not doing too great this week. I keep just forgetting that I'm trying to eat better. How can I forget?! Friday night. Again on Saturday night. Sunday lunch with Tim. Last night. What's up? Somehow I need to stay f.o.c.u.s.e.d!

Today I ate a tiny frozen dinner for lunch that hasn't satisfied me at all. I'll have a struggle this afternoon not snacking on peanuts (!) I bought for a crockpot Thai chicken recipe. Time for milk and yogurt? ;-) Ooh, yum! :-/

Yes, I have to totally avoid some places. KFC, for one. My favorite Chinese buffet - toture! McD's I can do all right, because I really only go there for b'fast, and their egg mcmuffin isn't too bad...if I skip the Coke and hash browns! Oh dear, this is tough. We'll both keep it in perspective, though, and get the hang of it. Yes, that food pyramid is quite a tiny amount of food compared to what I've been eating. The hunger was pretty bad for about 1 1/2 weeks. Then it got better. Don't forget those 3 milk portions a day. They will help keep you full. 

Chin up, stomach in, belts tightened, attitude adjusted, menu planned (sort of) and ... I'm off!
