It has been a wonderful and busy 3 days. although i wasn't at the office, I was able to babysit really for the first time in a year and half, due to COVID...... I have been so busy, that i didn't get much chance to plan for my Eating.... and today i am paying the price, there is no excuse, no saying, so what is a weekend??? Please understand, I planned for a cookie at Christmas, planned to eat a taste of desert on my birthday I even plan when i can have a baked potato, or maybe a low carb tortilla and i do not have an option. and then before i knew it one bite here or there led to other bites, too may bites and even a real grilled cheese. on real italian bread, pretzel bites, a tiny coldstone ice cream, a few bites of chocolate cake, cherry dessert...... you get the picture. I COULD HAVE HAD ANY OF THIS at a given time but on a rare occasion, only in a one hour window, and only one of the treats, and no more than one or maybe two times in a month. and never consecutive days....... it was just easier to eat what the kids were eating (ages 5 and 8), and I will NOT make that mistake again. Today i feel so drained and tired, a little shaky, and a little off.......I realized that I went 9 months with only a taste of real sugar ONLY 3 times. birthday, christmas and Easter that a weekend of sweets and carbs......... was a bad bad move. This is real life folks and I have two options, I can continue to eat like i did this weekend, make these little excuses in my head. OR i can do two weeks of strict Keto, and continue on with Life as I now know it....... and I have my Pelican on my arm to remember to continue on this healthy Journey to honor my Brother Chris.... Oh i should also mention, I went hiking and exploring with the kids, and physically i was quite active the entire time..... so there is that!! I am still babysitting this evening....... and I will Not sway in my direction..... this is my life, and it is what i make of it. Please have a blessed day. and be Kind to each other.
