Day 127

I lost 2.1 pounds! This is amazing because I ate every single point I had and Miss Bitchface is visiting. The difference this past week was that I didn’t eat all my weekly points over the weekend and I started exercising again. I even had cheesecake and pizza this week but it was all counted.

My family has always shown me love with food. I do the same with my family and I’m really trying to modify this. When I go home to Albuquerque I’m going to try to plan more activities that have less to do with eating and more with talking or physical activity. It is so hard not to love someone with food on a daily basis. I do it with Ellison all the time. I will prepare his food differently than mine because I don’t want to sacrifice flavor for him. I buy my son cookies and cupcakes weekly because he enjoys it. I really need to change this. I just want my boys to be happy. I’m not the only one responsible though. There is resistance and maybe I just need to have a sincere and heartfelt conversation with Ellison. It’s a great day, a beautiful beautiful day!!

Tomorrow I will go running and I will spend another day with my terrific family.
