Yeah. This is hard.

So, as you might have guessed, this is hard. I did really well over the weekend. I had sushi, fresh fruit, fresh veggies, soy milk and chicken. I had tea the whole weekend, too, and had no problems. THEN - I got to work on Monday. I guess I like to eat at work. Holy cow...that was hard. I was hungry almost all day, although I managed to stick to the plan.

Last night was a different story. I had planned and purchased what I needed to make shrimp and crab patties. I even bought corn crumbs to use instead of bread crumbs. The kids were really excited; they were even excited about the cauliflower I bought as the veggie. I ended up making couscous for the kids, since I knew that one pattie and cauliflower wouldn't be enough. It was parmesan couscous. And then I ate some. I don't know why I ate it, but I did.

WAIT. I DO know why I ate it: because I have no self control! I'm also a very emotional eater. I also ate the WHOLE bag of jalapeno tortilla chips I bought yesterday, instead of only eating a serving every day like I had planned.

I think I need to focus on the eating to feel better, by omitting the wheat and dairy, and not think about weight loss or anything else. I'm mixing the two and that's making it harder.
