Fast Food No’s
I was trying on outfits in my closet which I either purchased as a “goal outfit” or kept from “prior 2nd set of babies days” to gauge my progress of my weight loss lifestyle journey. I was extremely excited when I realized I could fit my all black outfit I purchased and wore for Valentine’s day about 4 years ago (pre 2nd set of babies days). I came out of the closet to show my family my progress and one of my family members literally said they didn’t like me this small.
About an hour later after I had put up all the clothes I had tried on I realized I was pretty hungry. I went into the kitchen to make something quick to eat and the same family member who made the comment of my size being too small said “are you hungry? I am hungry as well. Can we go to S**ic?” Here is the deal. Prior to my commitment to re engaging in my normal life card lifestyle I had a moment (while pregnant) that I ate at the fast food restaurant I will not name (out of respect) because I was eating a lot of crap and making a lot of poor choices. There is a reason I gained 80-90lbs between my back to back pregnancies!
I politely declined the offer to grab fast food. It did remind me that not everyone will have respect for what you are trying to accomplish. Not everyone is supportive. I have to make my mind up daily of what is important to me. It is a very delicate and slippery slope to re engaging in poor habits which lead to rapid weight gain. In weak moments I have to plan for my resolve and reaction so I will succeed.
