The goal for today is to sit down and plan a menu for next week. I have never been good at planning ahead, especially menus. I think that is why I have always had a buddy to diet with, we would sit down together and plan (which was easier). Unfortunately, all my diet buddies are on the east coast and I live on the west coast. I have gained tons of weight since moving here and its really depressing. I'm not comfortable in my own skin. My husband keeps telling me that I am beautiful, which is nice and frustrating all at the same time. It's wonderful that he doesn't pick on me, that he still finds me attractive, etc. It's frustrating because it doesn't occur to him that if I am dieting, a bag of peanut butter m&ms (a serious weakness) is a bad idea. He has the attitude that it doesn't hurt to give in and cheat, but it does (especially in the begining). If I stick to it, then life is good...when I start allowing myself to cheat then I slowly inch by inch give up.
So, the kids are out of the house for the day. My husband is at work. And I am going to start the dreaded task of menu planning.
