I've been doing really well for the last couple weeks, and I'm finally feeling like I'm seeing progress. But I came home to visit with my mom, brother and grandparents, and I feel like I'm being sabotaged!
Amma acting hurt because I had a glass of water with my lunch instead of milk. She made a big thing about how she bought extra milk because I was coming, and I wasn't drinking it. I'm trying to compromise here! The white bread that my sandwich was made with was 130 calories a slice. Each slice! They only buy 2% milk and I'm used to 1% or skim. I feel kind of like one of those people I hated/made fun of in the past, but now that I'm finally feeling like my hard work is paying off, I don't want to sabotage it with a hundred glasses of milk and a few slices of white bread. (Fun fact, the Kub Red River Whole Grain Rye we get at costco is only 59 cals a slice. Less than half. That's right.)
I feel kind of douchey getting upset about this, but it's been tough, especially seeing scale movement after battling and feeling like I was getting nowhere. Oh well. What can you do...
I'd kill to get a big spinach salad with tuna. But that's not what we eat like here. Ground beef and potatoes and gravy and a wee side of veggies is how supper goes at the grandparents house. It's a bit of a difference.
Ah well, I go home tomorrow and it'll be fine.
As long as I can stay sane.
And stay away from the mini cream puffs from M&M Meats.
