I know I haven't been a consistent blogger but I have reasons. I swear! Mostly just because I haven't been a good dieter and I didn't want to admit it :)
Saturday there was a craft fair and it taught me I need to quit being such a horrible procrastinator. If I am going to be gone for the day, I need to have things ready the night before. Have vegetables cut up, a salad made or something equally as healthy. My goal is to be more organized with ready to go healthy things to eat. Each day was pretty much the same. I needed to find my motivation. Tuesday I saw the dietitian. I pretty much felt rebellious. How am I supposed to feel about eating 1/2 cup of pasta for dinner??? I feel like that will just make me more hungry! I realize I need to fill the meal with things that aren't full of carbs but all I was hearing is, "You can't have this and you can't have that.".
Today I got back on track. It's been easy since my husband and I both have bronchitis. No one feels like making anything or eating really. Another way I got back on track with was my medication. Since my son passed away I have only taken the few things that I thought I needed. My doctors would disagree since they have prescribed many more than what I as taking. That is what led up to my ER visit. I think I've still been in denial but today the chest pains (slight but still there) have caused me to take things seriously. I sat down and sorted out all my meds and filled my pill box for the first time in months. Thinking about taking them makes me nauseous but I know I owe it to my family and friends to do the right thing.
Tomorrow I will start sharing some what I hope are yummy, good for you, recipes!
