January 4, 2010 ... unbelievable!! It was snowing at home when I left and raining in town. I am working until 11 and then will be heading to Post Falls for Bob's first radiation treatment. I kind of hope the rain holds here in the valleys for our drive. But, whatever it is, it is and I'm sure we'll be fine. I know he is nervous about this but hopefully after today he will know what to expect and it will become routine for the next couple of months.
Today start's Beet's 7 day challenge and the timing if PERFECT. I am very ready to continue being focused on my journey and to see what my body will do between now and my 1 year anniversary with FatSecret on January 18th. I still am not yet changing my goal "officially" but I am working my way towards 175. When I appear to be somewhat stabilized there I will change my goal. Ultimately, I would LOVE for my range to be 170 to 180 ... but time will tell.
We visited with my father-in-law and his wife yesterday. Bob really wanted to get over to see his dad before he started his radiation treatment ... thinking he might not feel much like visiting during his treatments. His plan was to bring fish & chips from ZIPS for them to eat. Now, I LOVE fish & chips but we stopped at Subway for me. The sandwich was delicious and much more healthy than the fish & chips would have been. I ate 1 fry. As we waited for the food I stared at the menu and coveted all the junk food displayed there. I was very pleased with my choice and yet I am ever aware of how much I ADORE food that is not so good for me!! LOL!!! I've never eaten at ZIPS. Told Bob ... next time I am having a "free day" and we are looking for a place to eat lunch we should go there. LOL!!
My sleep is totally messed up. I am having hot flashes every couple of hours that wake me up. On top of that I have a touch of insomnia and have been having a difficult time falling asleep. I'm sure it is just the menopausal joys of life and know it will pass but it can't pass quickly enough as far as I am concerned. I am tired.
Pilates is going well. I can feel myself getting stronger. Feel GREAT!! There are still moves that I struggle with. I cannot do a regular push up to save my soul!! I can go down part way and back up which is an improvement from where I started.
Today I am grateful for ...
1. my son returning safely home from his Seattle New Year's trip 2. my son making a conscious effort to think more positively about his life and to make some long term plans for moving ahead 3. that my job is flexible enough for me to accompany Bob to his first radiation treatment 4. that Saturday and Sunday I returned to more reasonable eating, once again reminding me that I am NOT destined to be FAT 5. my Mom looking forward to retiring by the end of the year ... she so deserves more time to herself!!
Have a fabulous January fourth!! Here we are, at the beginning of another year and a new decade. Let's continue to make our way and be ever mindful that how we talk to ourselves and think of ourselves has a lot to do with how we treat ourselves, with food and everything else in our lives.
