Today has been a challenging day for me. I made the family spaghetti and of course pasta is a weakness for me..and NO, I did not indulge in even 1 lick! The smell is getting to me a bit right now and I will ask hubby to put it up:) I did go off protocol with 3 bites of low fat pineapple cottage cheese though:(
The last couple of days, I am feeling a bit cold. The weather has been really cold though or maybe from lack of fat ingested. I think if I break protocol, I would do it with protein though. I feel I am doing well and still feel good. Ten pounds gone is alright with me, even though the weight in water has been fluctuating a bit.
Yesterday, I met a friend at McDonalds and I ordered a grilled chicken salad or rather a SouthWest salad with grilled chicken. When i opened it up and saw broken tortilla shells on it and covered with a sauce, I took it back and exchanged it for a side salad. My hubby wolfed down a double cheese burger and a fish sandwich to which i was probably openly licking my lips and drooling. Still, I did not succumb to the desire. Passing up the chocolate cupcakes i brought for my freind was not a temptation as chocolate cake is not anything I really care for. However; the frosting is the thing I really wanted to put my fingers in, but I did not. Then last night, the kids brought home a candy train they made at grandma's house to which surprisingly did not tempt me either.
I am grateful for everything in my life and so happy that I have made 1 good friend from this site who is so sweet and dear.
Be kind to one another. You never know how a smile at someone or a kind word can change a life.
