Jealous
I'm so jealous of my aunt! Everybody says I'm crazy & get over it, but I can't help it. I'm jealous. See, my aunt is about 10 inches taller than me and weighs about 20 pounds more than me. She doesn't look it! Put us side-by-side and everybody guesses that I weigh the most. We wear the same size pants currently, but when she was my weight, she wore a full size smaller. She holds her weight well. Everytime we go anywhere together, she gets guys flirting & hitting on her. I'm married so I don't need the guys hitting on me, but sure is nice to turns heads once in awhile! I don't need to hear I'm crazy, or that it's a curse of being short, yada yada yada. I know all that. I'm just jealous anyway. On the other hand, it motivates me to push a little more. This weight will come off & I will look smaller & feel healthier. I KNOW IT!
Okay enough of my ranting. Lets end on a positive note. I am still on progress with my goals for the week. I'm doing well & feeling great whenever I check something off as accomplished. My children are paying more attention to what they eat, too. One of my younger daughters actually chose an apple over candy or chips for snack time! She said it would probably fill her up more, has less calories, & is healthier. She didn't even blink twice at the junk food. 
My other children chose to share popcorn, which is a decent choice, too. I love the fact that they're making healthier decisions without me pushing or forcing them. By choosing to eat better on their own, they're establishing good eating habits for life. If I forced them to change their eating habits completely, I think they'd rebel and go junk food crazy when I wasn't around. Mind you, I am making healthier dinners & do insist they at least try & taste their vegetables; but I let them make their own lunch & snack choices.
Well, I'm off to walk the dogs & get some sleep. I feel better for venting & thinking of that apple is making me smile again.
Best wishes everybody!
