Ok... i am not perfect!!! (light blub moment??) I just went a brought $2.00 worth of mised lollies and ate them on the way home..... Why.... because I am weak.. .because I am too easily tempted... because I have had a full on day with sick kids.... NO EXCUSE.... God.. for months I thought I was so on top of these 'old habits' of comfort eating and all it takes is one crap day to make me surcome to my biggest weakness.. "Allen's Lollies..." Anyway..it is done and do I feel ay better for it.. nope... feel like crap!! Why o Why did i do it???
Anyway... enough already - I am driving myself stupid with my own nagging....
Just also came back from weigh in - another loss of 100 grams (I am good at the 100 gram losses...) But I have had an average week... apart from my recent lollie binge.. I also had cheesecake while out for tea on Sunday night after the movies (brilliant movie BTW) and just generally eaten more then I have been.. why? No frickin' idea... But this is a new week..
I also failed my challenge this week.. didn't get anywhere near my 57,000 steps (fell 15,000 short) what happens now?? I didn't set any rules for failure? I will set the challenge for the same this week (just to get it right!!)
Jack is also way tonight... He has meetings in Melbourne for work and away for the night. Hate being home alone (alone.. unless you count the three kids..) He was to be in Melbourne yesterday also, but due to his HUGE workload, he got out of one day. We had to attend a meeting last night for the Combined Service clubs (Jack is in Apex, but also Lions, Rotary and Former Apexians there) and they had a speaker who a little like the "Nutty Professior" - Very interesting night. jack is the president of Apex at present... so we had to sit on the head table -damm - forgot my pearls (first lady - president's wife) but had a nice civil night out.
My mum came over from Horsham to look after the kids and Emilie told her that she was sick and that she had to make up a bed on the floor for her in the lounge room... mum just humoured her and did just that. But when we rose this morning.. Em had been sick during the night. So she has been a little flat today.. then Hugh was sick a couple of hours ago and Laura is really grumpy... So I reall yhope that the sickness holds off.
Not much else going on... just busy with the kids... I was very excited to read about Karen's news on her blog... I have had to set up a new section in my favortites "Blog Babies..." just to keep track of them all.. Happy to add more .... Love Babies.....
I would love to chat more but I really need to go and get these kids to their beds so I can attack the ironing. Will not be able to get out for a walk tonight... can't leave the kids home alone..
Ciao

Hey Kirsty - you're not weak for eating the lollies, you are living life! What is life without the occasional treat or two to lift the spirits when things get tough? Your kids aren't well and Jack can't help since he's away, so a few lollies aren't going to hurt, it's a treat afterall, not a stable food source for you, and it certainly won't undo all the amazing achievements you have made to get to your goal weight. And losing another 100g loss at weigh-in, you're maintaining perfectly babe! Good on you! :)
I agree with M3 - it was one slip up and it certainly doesn't mean that you are back in your old ways. Having been at goal for nearly 7 months, I still find that there are times when things get too much for me and I turn to food (last week was a good example !). The difference now is we can have one slip up and stop and it doesn't have to turn into a total binge that goes on for days and days.
You are doing an amazing job - put the lollies behind you and just move on - you have done it before and you can do it again.
Hope you have a great weekend and that Jack gets back safely.

You certainly are not weak for eating those lollies... you are living! I still have lollies occasionally - in fact I am sure most of us do!
Hope the kids are feeling better real soon.
Well done for losing another 100gms - every 100gms count :)
Hope you have a good weekend.
Hope your kiddies are feeling better soon.
One slip up certainly does not mean you've failed. You need a treat every now and then. Old Kirsty would not have thought twice about $2 worth of lollies, so it just shows how far you've come.
Have a great long weekend! xxx
We all have days like that, it happens, don't beat yourself up. Move on. You are still losing, so that is a positive. I hope the little ones get better soon, not much fun for the kids or Mum.
Take care

I know i'm showing my age here, but when I was a kid $2 worth of lollies was a huge big brown paper bag full, now it's probably about 20 lollies at most. Don't beat yourself up about it, it's not like you do it all the time. We're all human and we all indulge from time to time, some more than others - you are maintaining your weight so well - look how far you've come.
Hope the kiddies are better.

Don't beat yourself up babe. By the sounds of it, it's not going to continue into a week long binge or anything :-) Hope the kids are feeling better!
