Today has been a pretty good day except for those random cravings. Even though it's day one, I know I can do this. Weak moments and all. Lunch was pretty good, decided on something that sounds pretty gross but was actually really good. Beef broth and cheddar cheese soup. I also had some Jello and pudding. I wasn't full, but was content. I took a nap and right before ALMOST grabbed some chips. Didn't help that my daughter was putting a cookie on my lips for me to eat...gotta love them.
My mother in-law has to be the best in the world. She was coming down to help with Avery after surgery, but came down earlier because I can hardly walk without being in pain (fat knees). She spent just about all day in the kitchen making and blending Chicken Tortilla soup and Potato soup. Both were very delicious and I have enough Chicken Tortilla to last this whole two weeks! It may not look too appealing but it is very good. Not only did she cook for me, she cooked for Eric and my Dad. Their meal looked 1000 times more appealing than mine...how could you not want fried chicken, rice, and broccoli. I'm a girl from the south, you say fried chicken and I'm one happy fat girl. I'm pretty proud of myself though, because I had none. I ate my potato soup and enjoyed it.
I keep having to tell myself that I can do this. This is something that I want. Not only for me but for my daughter. I want to be there when she gets married and has kids of her own. Sappy I know.
So for now, I will enjoy this popsicle that I'm eating and take this one day at a time!
