aah, such is life. I always find myself saying, "I'll be happy when and if all these things happen". or, I'll start fill in the blank when I'm ready, and all the stars and moon align, and everything is this perfect blanket on which to lay my new goals. There is no "perfect time". Its your mind talking you back from risk, from novelty, from getting out of your comfort zone. But it's getting out of that comfort zone that is living, and reveals your stremgth. So if nothing else, just to reveal your will, get through tonight. Tomorrow is tomorrow, but you will face it knowing that you succeeded in something that you commited to. Revel in things that tonight is really about- relaxation, shutting out the world for a moment to stnad still with your son. That tastes better than pizza...

Good luck to you!!!

Keep up the good work BB - you and your son will be so proud of you for staying strong and sticking with your plan!

Re: "the kids"- I have to laugh, you said instead of a tempting pizza you brought home a happy meal-- I've been doing the SAME THING!

My poor kids have had yucky dinners since I started (3 days).

I know if I get in the kitchen I'm going to be tempted so it's been frozen crock pot stuff, burger king, canned soup and sandwiches. I don't know how I'm going to "de-tox" them when I'm though ;)

Just think though, we'll be healthier and happier when we get done and fix their diets then too.
