Well I made it through the movies and almost the whole weekend and I haven't cheated yet. I'm really having alot of cravings and a strong desire to eat badly though..sometimes this healthy eating is so easy and sometimes its really HARD. I walked yesterday morning, making 5 days this week. I felt really good after that walk too. Hubby and I went to the movies, and did some shopping yesterday. I ate breakfast before I left the house but he did not. So, he was hungry for some lunch before the movie started and grabbed a burger and fries from the grill next to the theater. Since I had already eaten breakfast and was planning on a nice dinner, I chose not to get anything even though watching him eat that burger was hard. Since he had just eaten, he didn't want any popcorn so I bypassed that temptation. Before the movie, I had picked up an individual sized bag of pretzel M & M's and some Crystal Light. So, in the movies I had my 150 calorie M & M's and a bottled water with Crystal Light and it was good.

Just 3 1/2 more hours until dinner..the temptation to cheat is strong but I'm trying to keep myself busy..
I wanted to say thanks for such an understanding comment on my blog today. I'm glad ONE person gets it. There were a lot of comments that I really didn't want to publish because they irritated me, but I did anyway. It's nice to know that you totally get me...so thank you. :)
