Well people, I am on my second day of trying yet again to lose this bunch of weight...but instead of focusing on the negative which is something a lot of us do a lot of the time, I am going to focus on the positive and pat myself on the back for doing so well this last couple of days....
So anyway, my husband is going away on business for 3 long weeks this coming wednesday and even though I am going to be sad and lonely and miss him a lot, I am choosing to focus on the positive, which I call...
OPERATION: hot housewife!!!
In the three weeks he is gone, one good aspect is that I will be able to focus COMPLETELY on myself and not have to worry about him, his meals, his schedule, being a good wife, etc.. all the things that sometimes get in the way of staying on plan....when he is gone, I am going to pamper myself, and TRANSFORM myself...
Okay, I know it's impossible to lose 100lbs in 3 weeks hahahahaha, but I am shooting for at least 10, which is reasonable in 3 weeks since I am so overweight and it comes off faster when I am this big...
in addition to that, I am going to focus on some things I have been lacking in, and lazy about, or feeling too fat and ugly to do etc etc...
In the 3 weeks he's gone, I'm going to...
give myself a facial
get my hair cut and dyed in a hot fall red (hubby likes redheads and so do I, and I need a change)
give myself a manicure and pedicure
exfoliate my whole body and soak in many hot bubble baths with candles and a trashy magazine
clean the house (I'm pretty good about that, but I mean CLEAN it...)
do yoga every day and take a walk every day
stay on plan with my eating
buy a cute (inexpensive) outfit for when I pick him up at the airport...and maybe something to go under it
Basically, just use that time to focus on ME and pamper myself and do whatever it is I always feel too tired for, or too fat and lazy, or not have time for, etc etc.... instead of the alternative, which would be to sit around the house missing him and feeling sorry for myself and counting the days until he comes home....
