Days 31 and 32

Yesterday was a bit crazy with Dr. appointments, and things to do up at the school, so my day went too fast. Anyway, I found a weakness I discovered mini gummi bears and love to eat small bits here and there. I am starting to have to fight the urge to eat all sweets. The Halloween candy is calling my name. I have been good so far. I ate a few too many gummi bears last night, but at least they are low in calories. I am trying not to exclude myself for all things, but rather trying to teach myself to eat the appropriate portion size. I think when you tell yourself you cannot have something the more you want it, so I am just trying to replace the want and desire to a better choice.

Last night I was able to put my wedding ring on my finger for the first time in a year. It was very exciting!! I hate not being able to wear it. It is such a great reminder of the commitment I made to my husband, and he to me. It also reminds me of our engagement, and wedding. I am grateful for him and for his love for me. He has been so very supportive in my quest and is trying hard to encourage and sustain me! My girls are starting to notice a difference in me too and are encouraging me also. I think they are seeing the real mom start to come out and they are excited for her to shine!
