I am bringing you an update on our kitten. She is not much better and still is not moving her back legs. She is taking a lot of care and the doctors have moved on to steroid treatments. We will have to see.
This is taking a lot of my focus right now, so my weight loss isn't top priority. However, I am still doing my exercise every day and trying to eat right. It appears I gained almost a pound over the weekend with all the food, but I enjoyed it all and do not regret it. I know the pound (plus more) will come off so I'm just focusing forward.
I think what this shows me is that my routine has become so ingrained in me that I keep it up even in times of tragedy. It's becoming a way of life as opposed to a "diet." Which is a good thing!
I also had half of a steak on Saturday night. Hubby took three of the kids to visit his mom and my other daughter and I stayed home to take care of the kitten. We kept a steak here to enjoy. I grilled it out and it was fabulous, but being a ribeye, it was very fatty. I found that after a half of the steak, I just couldn't eat any more - it was too rich and fatty. I felt a little ill (even though I enjoyed the steak's flavor).
However, being off schedule due to the kitten, I have not made a grocery list for the week yet and it's already Tuesday. Luckily we have some things still in the freezer and I can wing the dinners (and make them healthy) until I have a chance to do the menu and grocery list!
So, I am just on an even keel with my journey at the moment, and really, I don't think I can ask for anything more!
I had the same moments last week where I'm doing well exercise wise but I've eaten a bit more than normal. I'm like you and stay positive and move forward.
