I’m so happy that today is Friday, it’s been the week from hell here at work and I can’t wait to get as far away from it as I possible can.  The stress at work is making me want to eat and I’m really trying to fight it, I’ve been good so far today and I wasn’t to bad yesterday.  Tonight is going have it’s challenges tho, see I’m meeting on of Austin’s old co-works and his wife for the first time tonight.  Nate and Becky are newly Weds like Austin and I.  I believe that they got married in October, we were invited but couldn’t't go because we used all of vacation time to go on out honeymoon  (the wedding was in MD I think).  Anyway I guess he suggested that we go to the Texas Roadhouse and my husband being my Husband was like sure thinking that I could go on the internet and find the points of what I wanted to eat like I always do.  As you know the Texas Roadhouse does not have information on there website regarding things of the nature so I guess I’m stuck with salad, I don’t want to blow my whole day in one meal I’ve been good and I really want it to stay that way.  Beside being nerves about the food choices that I have to pick from there, I don’t do well with new people.  I tend not to talk much and some people take that the wrong way, I’m just not good at breaking the ice and starting conversation os I’m hoping that Becky is.  It’s time to take off, I have to pick Lucian (the puppy) up at daycare (yes I send my puppy to dogie daycare ;) before I can go home and get ready to go.  I’ll be back tonight to let ya’ll know how it went and a food journal. 

since I blogged on this site….I wish I knew how to link the sites together because it seems to be alot of work to keep up two blogs.  Anyway I really haven’t lost anything since the last time that I updated I’m still going back and forth between 161 and 159. 

Today I did some good things and some not so good things:

Good things:

1. Worked out this morning
2. Tracked everything that I ate so far today
3. Drank all my water today and its only 4:10pm
4. Planning a healthy dinner for tonight

Bad things:

1. Ate to much at lunch.  I has a business meeting and I should have gotten what I told myself I was going to get ( cup of soup and salad) instead I got a cup of soup (it was on the creamy side) and those dumb chicken mini rancher things that I see all over TV.  Let me tell ya something……they better then that taste so don’t even waste the points.  I’m estimating that they are 5 or 6 a piece. 
2. Drank 2 big diet cokes at lunch and then another 20oz when I got back to the office after I told my husband that I was going to stop drinking it.  I told him that I would stop drinking it because he heard from someone that the fake sugar in to isn’t good for your ovaries and since we want to have a baby in the near future he asked me to kick my coke habit and I agreed.  I failed miserably at this today. 

Other then those two set backs I’m doing okay today.  For those of you who have missed me you can check in on what I’ve been doing at http:binaliciouse.blogspot.com but from now on I’m going to try to update here first.

I’ll be back on tonight with a food journal. 

Last night was my weight watchers meeting and as I suspected I was up. Not a whole lot but when you’ve gained and lost the same 3lbs for the six months you don’t want to go up. This week I think is going to better for me, so far today I’ve done really well and I have 7.5 points left for dinner and I’m planing on making low crab chicken soft tacos with spicy chicken that I cooked earlier in the week.

I was thinking alot today about were I want to see myself come Memorial day. I’ve been going to beach that weekend for the past 3yrs with my husbands family. I really want to look good in a bathing suit this year. So if I work really hard I can hit my Weight Watchers goal by that time, or come close to it. If I lose 2lbs a week for the next 12 weeks I’ll be at goal witch is 135lbs (personal goal 115lbs). I think that this is doable, plus its going to give me motivation. I also told myself and my husband that we aren’t trying to have a baby until I hit that 135lb mark. So I’m going to be working my little butt off till then. I know I can do this.

This is my food so far today:

Morning Scale Reading: 161 (up since last week)

***Please put my new blog: www.bonalicious.blogspot.com on your blog roll, next week will be my last week posting here.*****

That’s right I said it……craptastic. It’s dark and cold and rainy and all around gross outside. I’m really not looking forward to the 45min drive home from work that I have. On days like today it will could take me anywhere from 45min to 2hr to get home depending on how people are driving and fender benders. I am happy to report that my eating was very good today, that’s 2 days in a row, I just have to keep going and keep eating within my points. The weekends are never easy for me, I’m ether way busy and forget to eat and by the time I get around to it I’m so hungry I eat everything or there is nothing going on and I have to fight to keep myself from snacking the whole day. I really have to start being stricter with myself on the weekends, I don’t want to blow everything in just 2 days and that’s seems to be the pattern of things.

Changing subjects I wasn’t going to harp on this, I was trying to let it go, I know you all are sick of hearing about my MIL issues but I wanted to share one last thing with you on this and then I’m never going to speak of her again. Okay so I few days ago I posted about how she makes me feel like we are in competition with each other over just about anything, the latest battle is over weight loss. Now she was e-mailing me several times a day about how good she was doing and how much weight she lost on the Nutrasystem and always asking me how I was doing with weight watchers. I would simply say I’ve been on plan and the weight is coming off slow right now, b/c it is. Anyway last week after I posted that blog I answered on of her emails and like all the others she asked how I was doing and this time I said I’m not really watching right now, I’ve lost my motivation and wouldn’t you know I haven’t received an e-mail from her since then. That was over a week ago. I think it kinda sad that the only time she wants to talk to me is when she can put me down about something. So I’m done being the good daughter in law, I’m not going to go out of my way to make nice with her if she wants nothing to do with me. I guess I just have to come grips with the fact that we are not going to be close to each other, maybe I had the wrong idea of what that relationship was going to be like and this is just another reminder to come off of planet Sabrina and come back to earth. But like I said I’m not going to harp on in and this is the last time that you will be hearing about any of this because I’m letting it go.

If you have any advice on how to make a DIL MIL relationship better please let me know, I don’t want this women hating me for the rest of her life.
