Day 34

Super Bowl Sunday is coming up. I heard a news report that people eat anywhere from 2000 to 6000 calories during the Super Bowl alone. That is insanity! That's almost my whole calorie intake for the week. My goal is to consume anywhere from 1000- 1100 calories daily. So, 6000 calories is almost a weeks worth for me. I plan to not go much off my normal plan. Maybe a little bit of an indulgence, but we are making healthy food & snacks. Portions size isn't a big deal for me anymore because I get pretty full fast and I've taught myself what a normal portion size looks like. I believe that's part of the reason why it's a bit easier for me to breathe nowadays because I'm not constantly full.
I'm going to try not to be such a food Nazi where my husband is concerned, especially on Super Bowl Sunday. I kind of have this nasty habit of expecting others, specifically my hubby to be doing things just the same as I am. So, If I want him to no longer continue on our healthier path... then I should just keep on bugging him about things. Or I can let him make his own decisions, support him no matter what because he's a big boy & no matter what he always supports me. I mean seriously I could literally eat an entire bag of Chip Ahoy's, an entire pizza & 4 famous stars (not that I've ever done that before or ever could even if I wanted to) in one sitting and he would never judge me. I have an amazing, incredible, wonderful, did I I say amazing, husband that I love more than anything in this world. So my goal this Super Bowl Sunday is to mind my own business... and let him & everyone for that matter and make their own food decisions without judgment, second glances or scolding from me. Who the heck do I think I am anyway? So anyway,
Wish Me Luck!
