Well, I totally blew it today, lol. H and I took the kids to see Finding Nemo, and I ATE! LOL
We bought a large popcorn, soda, and I had brought some little chocolate donuts the kids like. I ate so much popcorn, some donuts, and my entire soda, I'm ready to puke!
Well, back on track tomorrow I guess. I took today off from walking, I usually take a day or sometimes two off from my morning walk.
I also stopped taking birth control pills. H got "fixed" after we had D #2, and I went on them because I had been diagnosed with PCOS (polycystic ovarian syndrome). I'm lucky though, because most people can't even get pregnant if they have it! Anyway, it darkened some skin on my face and since I've stopped, I feel a lot better and the marks have faded some. If you know anything about PCOS, you know that some people get excess hair. I have a bit on my face that I always waxed, or tweezed. The pill was supposed to lessen it, it didn't. Oh well, maybe I'll have it lasered, no biggie.
My moods have been so much better, our life is really great. I've learned how lucky I am to have this board. It's a great place to come and vent (as I did on Father's Day) without taking it all out on H. By the time we discussed it, I wasn't really upset about it because I wrote about it here and got some replies. H and I have really learned to communicate much better in the past 8 months.
Anyway, JOIN us for the Challenge!! Even if you don't follow to the "T", it's a great way to get started, or continue working on yourself!
I feel so much better since the bomb was dropped. I have life now, I have a great H, great kids, and I actually am truly happy!! H tells me how happy he is too. He wrote me a love letter the other day, after the Father's Day incident. He wrote how much he loves me, how this is the happiest he's been in a long time, etc. How he hopes he can make me as happy as I've made him!!
I've always been a writer, and since I'm a teacher I love to write and to read, so I've started a book. I am just writing about my life, the lessons I've learned, etc. Who knows who will read it, maybe just my kids and H, or more people. I will post some journaling on here at another time. Hope everyone is doing well, and working on their Body For Life!!
