Set backs and Nomsters

So yesterday I had a *huge* setback. i went out to lunch with my mother and my food choices were not spectacular but not heinous either. However of the 4 hours out with my mom my daughter was eating for at least 3 of them. Let me backtrack to the beginning.

My husband has to be at work by 4 pm, which means that we have to leave by 3:30pm. I was running a little late so we left at 3:35. Now you have to understand that my husband *hates* being late. However as I was walking out the door he had me run back in the house for gas money. So we had to get gas. Not a huge deal he leaves a little wiggle room but he's getting tense and blames me for leaving late. We go to hop onto 95 where there is a bunch of construction and there's an accident in the construction zone. So he starts to flip out blaming me. I offer him a piece of chocolate to make him feel better. STOP! As he was eating it I realized that I was enabling eating to fix emotional problems. BAD! but at least I realized it. I call his job (because he's driving) and let them know he's running late. So when we finally get there I call my mom and let her know I'm on my way.

I pick my mom up. We stop and get gas and then I pull over and feed Loey for an hour. Then I put her back in the car seat where she screams a bit as we drive to Applebees. We get inside and sit down and I feed her some more. I get part way through the appetizer (spinach artichoke dip) when she decides she's not happy with the situation at all and loses it. I get to have a couple bites of my lunch (3 cheese chicken penne). So I leave and set up in the car to feed her. My mom finishes her drink and pays and gets everything boxed up. This was about another half an hour of feeding. So I get her quiet and we go to Walgreens. By the time we reach Walgreens (only 5 min away) She's screaming again! So I feed her while my mom goes inside. My mom's inside for another hour and a half. She comes back out and my daughter is still eating! She goes back inside and I ask for a diet soda and A piece of chocolate. She brings out 2 OF EACH reeses cups, caramel eggs and cadbury mini egg packs. I was so frazzled at that point I ate 1 of each.

I drop my mom off and feed the baby some more till she finally fell asleep. (She is totally going through a growth spurt). I didn't have the energy to cook so we ended up eating McDonald's. I ended up with -14 weekly points. Go me.

Day 51

Starting Points - 32 daily + 24 weekly

So Wed I ran around and spent time with my mom. My mom is handicapped and I do all of the work for her. I shop for her and take her to her Dr. Appointments. Sometimes I forget that it's fun to spend time with her because almost all the interaction I had with her is taking care of her. I'm really sad that I lost sight of that. Well Wed I actually got to spend time with her, We had dinner (she had chinese and I had a low point sub from subway!) We watched my life in ruins which was much better than I was expecting. I made some Halloween cards and we talked a lot. It was a really good night and I want to make sure to repeat it.

Day 35

Starting Points - 32 daily + 35 weekly

Monday was an interesting day. I woke up super early at 9 am (we are a second shift house hold) for a meeting and the person didn't show. The meeting was at Denny's. I got a horrible sandwich worth 33 points, but I only at a 1/4 of the sandwich. Then I went for lunch at Chili's with Ruby and a middle school friend, Jenny with her 18 month old.

Then Ruby and I took her cousin to Walmart. We hit the bathroom, and while I was waiting for her the female security guard came in with a male cop. The cop knocked on a stall door which swung open. The cop said "What are you doing in here?" They pulled a black man off the john (pants up thankfully) and they started yelling "where is it?" They reached in and said "watch out there's an open blade" at that moment I stepped into the handicap stall and told Ruby that perhaps she shouldn't come out. She asked "is it that bad?" I said, "yes" Apparently the man was shooting up in the Ladies room. The security guards told us that we could leave. They had the guy against the stall. I saw the knife in one of their hands and a needle and drugs on the counter. When we left I was really shaken. I wanted to just get out. By the time we left Walmart I wanted to eat anything fatty. I wanted pizza and subs and chicken nuggets and fries. I always react in the extreme in situations like this. Stuff involving cops or loud voices or sudden movement. It's a problem that I have from when I was working at the harbor and a friend who owned the store next door was attacked by her husband. My heart starts to race and I can't calm down. But I didn't give in. I didn't binge to settle my nerves. I even ended short on my points.

Day 33

So yesterday I had a party at the Renfest after it closed. I went in early with the lovely Ashley as my assistant. I had a lot of fun. Ashley ordered a corset. I bought an early birthday present for my husband. Ashley got herself a beautiful leather bound book and a date. She is nervous though. She's a doll. The party went ok till some roudy drunken people showed up. It wasn't a huge problem but it did make them hard to control. Some ladies left early and I had to pause the party to take care of them but Ashley was fantastic and did a "Care and feeding of your toys" segment for me. But cause we were running around food choices weren't the super best.

So my Ruby's brother got a job at a new Chili's. Friday they were doing a training day and we got an invitation. There were 4 limited menus and only one person could order off of each. Now I got the one covered in chicken fingers. I resisted the siren song of breaded chicken and went for not the guiltless chicken but a happy medium of their Monteray Chicken. OMG so nummy! I ate half and saved half for my hubs. It came with super awesome mashed potatoes and steamed veggies. The veggies did have butter though. We also had salsa and chips and had to split a trio of dessert shots. I did well for me.

Day 27

Starting Points - 32 daily + 35 weekly

Today was the weigh in... dum dum dum. I lost 4.8 pounds bringing me down to 258.2! I'm super excited.

Ok so I have a problem. It's a food problem. I'm pretty sure that some of you might be able to guess it's a pizza problem. A friend of ours invited us out for breakfast/lunch and suggested Cici's the all you can eat pizza buffet. Josh told him that perhaps on our current diet it wasn't a good idea.

So we went some where else with him. In the afternoon we had game plans with a new role playing group (see I told you I was a super geek!) I was nervous but had a lot of fun. In the end we all ended up at Cici's. I didn't do anywhere nearly as bad as I was afraid of. I had 6 small slices over the course of an hour. I know that sounds bad but in a normal day it woul be 6 slices per plate stacked high on the plate literally one on top of another. It's a bad bad thing for me. I made sure I put only one piece on the plate at a time. I ate a salad with light ranch first. I tried really hard. I only tipped into my weekly points a little. It's a small victory but for me a victory.
