I often sit and wish for another problem, one not so visible. People can have bad personalities, bad tempers, be unintelligent or plain dumb, and some can be downright horrible to other people, but if they are thin and pretty, it is all overlooked. At least that is what my perception is-that's what I see. Especially in dating. Why does the Bachelor have to have only size 0 and 2 on the show. Are they the only women worth anything. Good thing Darin loves me for who I am-even though I am bigger now than when we met. I know in the long run it doesn't matter-I will be perfect in the eternities.
But it is so hard to think about the eternities when right now is so hard. I had a rough day with the kids, so I am fighting off the "I need a snickers bar" feelings. I made a normal dinner instead of McDonalds because I knew I would want a burger instead of a salad. I have done this before, I don't know why it is so hard now. I guess when I was single my focus was totally different and I only had myself to take care of. Darin is gone and I tend to do more damage when I am alone. I have told myself I will not eat anymore tonight-I am full from dinner and it is 7:00, so we'll see how I do. I know I can do it. I did it all last week-no eating after dinner. I may even exercise when the kids go to bed!!

You can do it! It's always the late night treats that get me. I usually pop some popcorn (sans butter) and just eat and eat. It helps me when I am trying to lose a few. Good luck.
