Many people have told me that I will certainly cause a "eating disorder" in my girls if I continue to try and lose weight. They say I am not "fat". Perhaps I am not obese however I am not where I was before, nor where I need to be to feel happy.
Starting a diet plan at a family member's house isn't always easy. This is TRULY the case when you are at your parents house and they feel you don't need to lose weight.
This morning my father chose to pick up donuts. These, like cake, are a weakness of mine. Sitting at the table with the entire family it was hard to say, I won't eat any because I am on a diet. I didn't want my girls to think that I was choosing that because I felt sad about my body, so I did choose to partake. I just ate a half of a donut.
So perhaps, I am still reaching towards my goal of better food choices, and even more so...portion control!
You did a great job - I probably would have eaten one, and then said "Well, I already blew today, so I'll have another!). Good job making the right choice for both you AND the girls!!
