Here is a thought that is kinda funny, but at the same time not when you are watching what you eat.
Okay...I have been watching my food and portions for almost 3.5 weeks and I have lost between 7-8 lbs.-good...not monumental. But I figure if I keep it steady I will be where I want to be soon. Here's the thing...I have been eating 3 healthy meals and 2 snack type meals, and water. Haiden has been asking me, "what's that, can I have a bite?". So of course as a mommy should I let her try it...then she wants most of it! My measuring of my servings is wrecked...I really don't know what I just ate and what she ate so I feel this sense of greed come over me. I want to say to her, "sweet girl...mommy is soooooo hungry and this is the end of my existence if you eat all my food!" And she has so much other food that I would rather eat anyway. DO you guys know what I am talking about? So I have that greedy monster in me right now or I should say a hesitant monster that does not give with joy to my child, but I do regrettably. Well, the other night i treated myself to one of those 100 calorie microwave popcorn things. Kids are in bed and I am in American Idol chill out mode, all of a sudden Schafer starts stirring and crying and I go to check. I come back and Chris took a big hand full and stuffed it in his mouth with a "I just got caught" look on his face.
I let him have it..............the angry monster took over my body and a stunned look turned to anger, and I said you ate my snack!!!! That is all I get! Why would you sneak that!!! His eyes got big and he said that he forgot about that and he was sorry. He kept saying, "I'll make more and you can have some of mine...sorry". The ugly monster then sunk back to that hesitant monster that said, "that's fine, just please don't eat my food ever again."
The End

LOL..it is funny to read someone else post something like this. Having 4 kids, I rarely get to finish anything I start, but my pet peeve is my drinks. It never fails that someone helps me drink my drink! Little miss will get this Oops! Look on her face when I walk in and catch her in my drink. We have been working on...a get your own drink philosophy around here lately. That way I don't have to feel guilty when I get mad about them finishing my drink for me! Go Get Your Own....aka GGYO!
Oh my goodness, I'm laughing so hard right now because this is how I feel all the time! I have this problem all the time, and with two little food thiefs I never get to finish my food! What I usually do is make them there own little bowl of whatever it is i'm eating and then they won't even try and get mine. Now for the husbands if it's in the evening and I'm making my snack I'll usually ask him if he wants something and i'll make it at the same time, that way he won't try and eat mine.
The biggest thing i've learned is to just make everyone the same thing and then they won't feel like I'm eating something better. Most of the time it's healthier for them anyways.
Oh, no way am I gonna be ok with someone else making my 100 calorie snack into an 80 calorie snack. No. Way.
hey Kacie.. Frank and I were listening to the cd Chris and Brandon made and we were just blown away. We are amazed that even to this day the music you recorded is so anointed that it makes us want to fall on our knees and cry. Thank you so much for your ministry...even now. It means more than you will ever know... it ministers Jesus to us every time we listen to it.
that is Joi and frank...not bailey...sorry
