This Week Was Really Hard

It is Sunday morning...36 hours until I weigh in. I am pretty sure that this week will be a "gain" week. I am ok with that because like I have said before, this is going to be a long journey and one "bad" week here and there isn't so bad. I think it is even more ok (does that make sense?) because I learned a few things this week.

This week was really hard for this FAT MAMMA. It was hard on several different levels. 1) I went back to work after being off for 5 months. 2) The boy decided that he didn't want to sleep anymore. 3) I realized how crazy hard it is to be a full time working mom of two kids with a house to keep up with. 4) I found out that I have to be "on my game" every minute of every day and if I don't, I feel like I have let myself down.

Like I said, I also learned a lot this week. 1) I am an emotional/stress eater. 2) I have to plan ahead in order to ensure that I eat the best that I can. 3) Lack of sleep really messes with a person. 4) There are lots of people that are out there to support me on this journey and they keep me going.

I plan to take all of these things that I learned this week and use them in the future to help myself keep truckin' on this journey. I really appreciate each of you that continue to push me and encourage me on this journey. Your comments, emails, phone calls and death stares as I try to sneak bad food, really do keep me going and this FAT MAMMA is going to do just that...keep going!
