In Control? BS!

I have not been in control. I was but I wavered. We are coming up to the birthday season in my family which is never a good time for control but I have to be strong. The feet are still an issue but have been a bit better with the night splints...at least until I start walking around for any length of time.

I am re-reading The Thin Commandments by Stephen Gullo. It is good. I also have the audio version on my iPod so I can listen to him as well. What I need is for someone to follow me around and smack bad food out of my hands! From the ages 16 to 20, I worked after school for Laura Secord. One of my gigs was in their bakery outlet where I was with a bunch of wonderful senior ladies. I had so much fun with them especially my boss Mrs. Roberts. She was lovely and hilarious. If she thought I (or any of the other ladies) had had enough sweets, she would go so far as to wrestle it out of our hands. Some days we laughed so much our sides were aching. I need a Mrs. Roberts now.

Cashews

Some wag at the office brought in chocolates today. I managed to resist them but later I went for a walk and bought some cashews. I didn't eat too many but probably more than I should have. Since I have been walking more and I am overweight, I have developed plantar fasciitis in both feet although one foot is worse than the other. It puts a crimp in my exercising.

In Control

My diet resolve can be summed up with the mantra "I am in control." And I am. I am the only one who controls what I eat. I am trying Lean for Life again so I am on the initial 3 protein days. I am doing ok and every time I want to eat off plan, I just tell myself again that I am in control.

I have been having some foot problems which are probably plantar fasciitis. It interferes with the exercise. I'll try to do better with the posting.
