Good Start... ended badly

Well, I was off to a good start today... had a few bad phone calls that I let put me in a mood.. so instead of salmon, zucchini and rice for dinner, I had wings and fries. It was my choice, I looked myself in the mirror and said "you made a bad choice, but tomorrow will be better"

Daily I remind myself that my food choices and my outlook on life is what is in my control. I do not want to be like others in my family and extended family. I will win this battle and I will set a good example for others including my children.

Rebecca who is 7 has always been healthy, made healthier choices for the most part, but Sophia who is 2 would drink juice, eat Popsicles, ice cream, lollipop's and candy all day long if we let her. oh and Soda, she loves soda although I keep telling her it's blah! Rebecca has never drank soda, tasted it once and decided she didn't like it, didn't touch ice cream until she was probably 5 and was always satisfied with 3 jelly beans as a treat. I worry so much more about Sophia because she does have a gravitation towards the junky food, although she loves Brussels sprouts about as much as she loves hot dogs.

Anyway, today was a rough emotional day, I know unfortunately there will be many more ahead of me the next few months with personal changes that we are going through, but we will make it and I will succeed.
