Sat, Sun and Monday... catch up

Well, Sat., Sun., and Mon. was horrible for me. My first thought was that Lyle must not have realized that we were starting our new meal plan during the Labor Day weekend. I came to the conclusion that no time would be the right time because I always have something going on that would sabotage my diet. I was actually embarrassed to write down what I ate because I haven't even started the actual diet part of the plan. I even went as far as telling my sister that I would not blog anything that I ate this weekend but I have to accountable for my actions. So here it goes:

Sat-
Breakfast- spoonful of hashbrowns, 2 pieces of pork sausage, 2 biscuits
Lunch- nothing
Dinner- Arby's super roast beef and small fry w/ lemonade

Sun-
Breakfast- McDonald's chicken biscuit, hashbrown
Lunch- nothing
Dinner- spoonful of mixed greens, green beans, baked mostaccioli, potato salad, a chicken wing, 1 rib and a bowl of fruit

Monday- I actually was going to start my meal plan but I had to go grocery shopping. I made out a beautiful list and was very motivated. While I was at the grocery store I read labels and attempted to pick out the healthiest food possible. I changed Lyle's meal plan a little to fit my needs. My plan was to have the fish department at Schnucks bake some fish for me that would last me a couple of days. Well unfortunately, they did not have any seasoned tilapia like they normally do. Then to top it off, I could not find a descent bag of grapefruit. It was a couple of other issues and I was 2 hours into the grocery shopping (yes, 2 hours) and I started to get irritated and aggravated and then I was working on stress mode, which turned into hunger mode which turned into making bad food choices and leaving hungry with cupcakes. So on Monday, I started off eating healthy. For Breakfast, I ate 2 boiled egg whites and a bowl of fresh mixed fruit. Lunch - a chocolate cupcake Dinner- Chicken and fries and okra from a well known chicken place.

I have already planned out my meals for tomorrow. I have everything prepared so there's no excuses.

How Do I Feel? I feel like I need to be on someones prayer list so please pray for me! I was lying in my bed asking God when was he going to step in and help me. The words that came to me was free will. He's provided me with various opportunities and opened up doors and now I have to make the positive choices and just do the work. As the song goes, "nobody told me that the road would be easy, I don't believe he's brought me this far to leave me". I will have victory!!!!!
