Today during our training session, our trainer, Shane, had my friend Mandy and I each pull the sled with (6) 45lb. plates on it....300lbs total with the sled! It was hard, but it feels so good to challenge yourself and see just what we are capable of! Now to keep the eating in line today!

Gain
It's only fair that I report gains as well as losses. I'm disappointed to have to say that I gained 2.2 lbs this week. My body does big losses and big gains for some reason. No .2's here! Lesson learned...I need to track what I eat more carefully and watch the emotional eating. Here's to a better week!

Stress and self-sabotage
Okay...this page is about me being real, open and honest. I know that there are a number of other moms of children with autism who follow this page, so maybe some can relate. Today was a very difficult day at church with my 12 year old son with Aspergers. I spent half of my time frustrated with and trying to reason with my son, and the other half of the time trying not to break down in front of everyone. When I got home, what did I automatically turn to for comfort? Food. Why is it that we equate food with comfort and pleasure. Even now, it is taking everything I've got to not eat my way through the frustration.

Weekend Woes
Am I the only one who can usually stay on track fairly well during the week, but then let's it all fall apart over the weekend? I have been off track for the last day or so, but I am determined not to let that continue on through the weekend. I am turning it around NOW....not tomorrow, not Monday, not next week. I will stick with my meal plan this weekend and choose healthy snacks.
