After one obstacle comes another...and another...

Yesterday went really well!!! I avoided the dessert trap and had pork chops, broccoli salad (minus the raisins), tossed salad (picked out the carrots) and steams broccoli/cauliflower! It was a really yummy lunch! Then I stuck to my guns and just had my meals. There was many times for temptation and a husband that kept wanting to take a bite of all the desserts, but I made it!

Now to today...Sammie hasn't been feeling well since Saturday night. She has been throwing up and not eating. Last night she finally had some chicken and rice. I took her this morning to the vet and they were more worried about the trending weight loss she has had...they ran blood work and it's concerning so more $$$ and send it off to the lab...hoping it's not to serious. This of course brings an enormous amount of stress and worry! My reaction is usually to not pay attention, miss meals, then pig out on something...this isn't going to happen this time!! I got stuck without my water at the vet, but ran out while they were doing something real quick...and ate my third meal a little late since I wasn't prepared to be out that late. BUT I didn't eat the cheese/crackers I brought for the girls just in case they were hungry...that's a victory in itself! As the stress of her health and $$ now intensifies I have to find time to de-stress too! That's where I have to be more diligent in my quiet time in the morning and taking some time in the afternoon to chill as well. I will make it through this...

Oh and weigh day is TOMORROW!
