Made it through Christmas...
Without eating everything in sight! lol I did rather well with all the blessings of food around us. I made good choices and will be rewarded for them I know. I am not saying that I was a saint and didn't go off my diet, I did eat some goodies, who could resist! But, it was different for me than any other year, I didn't eat to just be eating. I ate some select choices and only had a small portion :). I am pretty proud of myself.
Now, to make it through New Years. I usually don't eat a bunch during that time but, it is cold and there isn't much to do execpt be in the house, all the cleaning is done, my MIL is coming to town this weekend so food will be surrounding me. I can do it though, I did good up to this point.
Resolutions anyone? Well, I did something different last year, I didn't make any resolutions and I have to say, I did better with everything than any year before. I usually make a list of 10 things I need to work on/improve and it was always such a let down because I never accomplished anything to the extent I wanted to. So, by not making and "actual" list, I went by my mental list and made more headway than ever before. I became closer with God, I became closer with my children, my husband, I lost more weight this last year than ever before, and found an inner strenght I didn't know I had. I owe it all to NOT having a new years resolutions list. I am not saying for anyone not to make a list, I just tried it and it worked for me
