What?WHAT!?!You're not taking him? Mood
Sunday, March 30, 2008 | A Happy story

That's what hubby said when I put myself first this morning and left the 2 year old home with him.  I wanted time to myself.  I needed to think alone and I never ever let myself do that.  If John (hubby) has something to say I smile most of the time and bend to accomodate.  But I am feeling more valuable now like I am worth my own time.  Sorry John I am not Gumby anymore.  I will respect him as always but won't sacrifice me in the process.  I brought him a bagel when I returned so he couldn't be mad.  I didn't have one.  I also didn't have a cupcake tonight when my mom brought them over.  I had ice cream, healthyish ice cream. 

 

Since I lost 15 pounds this month that brought my total to 30lbs.  I said new sneakers at 25 lbs so I went and got them tonight.  YAY!!!  They're avias not the most expensive but if the expensive ones felt the best I'd have gotten them.  They feel really good on me I can't believe the other ones I was wearing were so bad.  My feet will feel better now. 

 

So I have to get ready soon for work.  I hope my willpower is strong tonight I know it's probably annoying to read all the time what an eatfest the ER is, but it's the hardest thing for me to deal with.

 

Better do the food log.

    We both decided to take care of ourselves today! Yeah us! I too have been quite accomadating, and I will be when I don't have to sacrifice my priority...me and my health. Man, for me, it is all going to come back to bless my family many times over if I regain my confidence and become my best me. So, remembering that makes me feel less guilty about putting myself first when I need to. I think you already figured that one out! I am a little slow sometimes. New, high quality shoes are going to make such a difference in your excercise and how your feet feel! I broke down a few years ago and got some arch supports from a pricey place that I procrastinated on for way too long. What a difference! Anyway, great job on the food again and you are gonna tear it up with those new shoes! The ER sounds like competition for teacher's lounges which are notorious for being junk food havens! Stay strong!
