Good afternoon,
Hope you guys are hanging in there ok. I am struggling. Since going on some little outings (June and July) I am off track more than on track. Some meals/moments are ok, then others ~ I am just plain out of control. I am doing wrong and I know that I am and I go ahead and do it anyway.
I have got to come up with some kind of strategy for being out and about and having to eat out where I can somehow keep more on track.
I think part of my problem is that eating out was something we never got to do much growing up. And didn't do much all our married life. So, when we did, it was a real treat and what we chose was something that we couldn't get at home. So, I still have that mind set. Just need to learn how to deal with these new different opportunities in my life.
I guess I am a little bit frustrated because it seems like being able to go on these outings should be something to look forward to and to enjoy. But the stress of having to worry about what I eat kind of takes all the enjoyment out of it.
I have got to learn how to work around this.
Thank you for letting me share.
