Every Day is a Good Day ...

Even when it is a shitty day.

My ex-father in law (well actually ex boyfriends father) told me that it stuck .... he is so cool! He always has really positive things to say. He smokes a pipe so always plays with that while he talks and waves his arms around in the air. He has two sons - his version of sex education was sitting the boys down and saying ... 'if it feels good don't do it'. That pretty much sums it up. I bought him square wiskey glasses for Xmas one night and we stayed up until 4 in the morning, drinking wiskey, and figuring out what was the best way to drink out of a square glass! I tell you it is an art. Out of that whole family I miss and love him the most. He knows who he is!

So today was a shitty day.

I will update my goals first just to get them out of the way ...

1) breakfast DONE
2) no weigh DONE - scales? what scales? I am so getting used to that one .. although they are currently under the seat in my BF car!
3) exercise DONE - 30 min walk/run this morning, 3 x 10 min walks in my breaks, plus about an hour after work! I love the feeling of running by the way! It is such a great feeling (although my legs are sore at the moment .. and my feet... but I am fine!)
4) gym N/A - tomorrow - I am so looking forward to it!
5) track - DONE
6) water - DONE - 2 pump bottles
7) no diet coke DONE - getting easier and easier!
8) eat 5 servings fruit and veg NOT DONE - damn there I go again! I need to work on this
9) eating three meals a day NOT DONE - hey! don't think the worst .. I didn't snack between meals ... I didn't seach for the snack box at work ... I haven't had tea so I have only had two meals instead!
10) be positive ... DONE ... well trying my best ....

When I was overweight I had never ever thought I would get thin again. I thought I was destined to be Fat Nancy for the rest of my life. I am not. I now know I am going to get thin again. It may not be in the time frame I thought or the way I imagined but god bloody damn I am going to reach my goal weight. Once I get there I am going to stay there. You just bloody watch me!

I got compliments at work. Actually a discussion was started about weight loss and how well I was doing. Someone commented that even though she sees me every day she still notices the difference. Another girl asked how I did it. I said ww and exercise. She was like 'really I thought you didn't actually lose weight from weight watchers'. I told her I did. They commented on how thin my legs looked. I think they are still fat. I need to get like Margaret who just says 'thank you'.

So discussions haven't been flash in our house .. in fact not existent but tomorrow is another day .....

cya

It's nice to get comments isn't it? Even though I sometimes feel uncomfortable, I still like it.
Well done on another day on track! :-)

Just watched a show on TV tonight about a lady who had lost an enormous amount of weight but still dressed like she did when she was much heavier. Her mind had not caught up with her body even though it was obvious that her clothes were way too big.

Our minds are very strange things. But also very useful. It is good you are getting compliments and it is hard to say thank you. It has taken me a long time. But you better learn because you are going to get more and more the closer you get to your goal. :)
