Yesterday...

all my troubles smacked me in the face...

I shared an Extra Large Popcorn and Coke at Watchmen with my husband

We ate dinner at the mall afterwards

Today we ate lunch at COSTCO's food court

Bluck! Too much food!!!!!

Why do I do this? Because it is so rare my husband wants to eat out that I am very excited to when he relents and takes us out. That is an emotional eater for you. We tend to take too much pleasure in food and the experiences therein.

Hi. I found your blog through your comment on PastaQueen's the other day.

I've found, in the past year that I've been working on my weight loss, that there are ups and downs. . . at least there are for me. I may not be losing as quickly as I'd like to, but I'm also not making myself and my family miserable. That's something, and I think it's actually more important to me than the weight loss.

For me, I just can't let this "diet" thing rule my life. Sure, a shared bucket of popcorn and a mall dinner may not have been the best food choice - but it wasn't the worst, either. Remember that for some people (people like me, anyway!) this is about more than just dropping a few pounds. It's about changing our lives. Changing the way we look at food - and everything else. It takes time - you just have to keep at it, keep picking yourself back up, and don't beat yourself up about it, that's all.
