However unfortunately this week that is not the case =(
I am working on opening a new store for work and although this is no excuse I just have been eating more this week. I am not sure why or really I have no excuse other than I am over tired and extra stressed and I have been munching more than usual. I already ate all my flew points this week and it is only Tuesday so I must weigh in tomorrow and I am truly dreading it.
I got in 4 workouts and I will run tomorrow morning. I have been keeping up with those. So I am at least staying on track where my fitness is concerned.
The problem is the damn eating. I felt like an alcoholic this week. There were peanut M&Ms in the house and I just could not stop munching on them. For me sugar is like a drug and it seems once it is in my body I just keep craving it.This makes me upset it makes me mad, it makes me feel like I will never be able to enjoy things without having this stigma of craving it for days after wards. So I ate a serving of the freaking stupid things everyday both days this weekend. It is just not something I am proud of but I would not be honest if I did not share my downfalls with you all too.
I also have been eating over my daily points allowance. Again not something I am proud of but it is what it is. My days have been starting earlier at 530am and do not end until 9-10pm at night. So breakfast is at 6am and I am just hungry throughout the day, I end up eating all my snacks and lunch by the time 3pm rolls around. This messes me up because I have a 5pm snack and do not have dinner until 7-8pm and by then I only have 3-4 points left and I end up eating more like 7-8. SO I have been eating more chicken and I had pop chips, things like that. I am not happy about it but I am glad I am still eating healthy foods and not binging on junk.
The old me would have been throwing it all out the window with all this stress and being over worked. I am bringing a lunch everyday to work still and eating my Lazy Pumpkin Oatmeal for breakfast and things like that. It is just I am eating too much and by the end of the day I am out of points and frustrated.
So what can I do, I am publicly admitting I have made mistakes this week and I am recognizing that I do not have it all figured out. I realize I still have food issues and I need to be more careful when making choices. I need to be more militant when it comes to snacking and cut back even if it is healthy like a banana.
I know tomorrow will not be a good weigh in and for me I must accept it and not get discouraged and move on.
I know I will have help getting through it though because the Sisterhood has a new challenge coming up and it starts tomorrow! I cannot wait =)

It's amazing how hard some weeks can be but the important thing is that you recognize the problems and you're ready to fix them. It sounds to me like you've done a good job making the best of a difficult situation. And tomorrow starts a new challenge, like you said, which will help turn everything back to the way it's supposed to be.
At least your recognizing where your problem is, don't be hard on yourself. You have come so far in your weight loss and I commend you for keeping up with your fitness, that's half the battle. I always tell myself after I've gone through half a bag of chips, tomorrow is a new day! :)
Thank you for the support ladies!!
I needed it this week
Find and pick some good things from you and it helps me to solve a problem, thanks.
