Facing challenges and temptations

Wednesday January 9th 2013

Meal 1- Choc Shake
Meal 2- Choc Shake
Meal 3- Chicken Noodle Soup- YUM   I let it soak in water for a few hours
Meal 4- Grilled Chicken and Salad 3 tbs lite Caesar
Meal 5-Lemon Merengue Bar-   Fave
Meal 6- Brownie
Snack- 2 tsp peanut butter ( not on plan )

Water- a TON didn't really count

VERY challenging day-  I wanted to come home and eat pizza.  On my car ride home I called the Hubs in an emotional moment.  When I got home he had the chicken grilled up and the salad made. What a love!  So the fleeting temptation was there but I did not give in!

My job can be challenging, as I'm sure anyone else's can be .   Trying to balance it all is the goal but I do feel like my multi tasking skills get better and better every year.  But yesterday  for almost 8 hours straight someone needed me.   From clients coming into my office in crisis to co-workers coming into my office in crisis.  This is what I do, this is what I love, but by the end of the work day I was wiped.  On the car ride home I had to decompress.  I started going down that road of worry... for my clients for my coworkers... but I stopped.....  Right now I have a roof over my head, I have a car to get me to and fro, I have a loving husband and my loving Chewie who will greet me with kisses when I get home, I have a loving God who is near... this is my reality and I need to leave the work stuff at work and enjoy the life I have!     Not let others problems rule my life, my decisions, my choices for health!   

So, No Pizza for me!   One day in life I will have pizza again... but it will not be This Day!
