This week I've done really good. I know it's only been 5 days of eating well - I have my whole life ahead of me. But I like to take it one day at a time. This is really hard for me considering all the bad/junk food we have in this house. We live with my dad - and he eats whatever he wants, so there is always bad food tempting me! I worked out on Monday, but that was the only day :( I need to try and do better with that. I feel so much better when I'm exercising.
James and I were out shopping and I wanted to buy naughty food; but I didn't.
We went to see "We bought a Zoo" yesterday and I wanted popcorn; but I didn't get any. Instead we had Subway after and I got a 6 inch turkey/ham.
Tonight I baked some yummy 3 point chocolate chip bars - they *of course* don't taste like the real thing, but they are still good and satisfy a chocolate craving. I wanted another one, but I'm going to be good and just eat that one tonight.
I'm very anxious to weigh myself on Monday. I've been thinking about it, and I'd really like to re-join Weight Watchers. I just feel more committed when I actually go to the meetings and someone else weighs me in.
We have a 3 day weekend this week (MLK birthday on Monday) and the weather people call for snow starting tomorrow night through Tuesday! I don't like getting my hopes up, but I'd really like to see some snow! I think Logan would, too!
Speaking of Logan; he is finally rash free now! I fed him some apple, pear, banana combo for breakfast on Monday morning. He's had all 3 of those fruits separate with no reactions - but Tuesday morning I was undressing him and he had a terrible scary rash all over his legs, arms, neck, and cheeks! I started crying and called my mom. I sent her a picture of it (she was at work) and said "Wow, that's really bad!" So I took him into hid doctor. His doctor said it was from something he ate/touched in the last 24 hours. I said nothing has changed - I've fed him foods he's already had - no new shampoos, soaps, detergents, diapers...nothing in the last 24 hours. So I kept looking around and thinking...I washed all his clothes that came in contact with him - I vacuumed like crazy. And then I thought "What else was in that fruit?" I looked and it said there was "Citric Acid" in there. I read before somewhere that introducing citrus foods to baby's before they were 1 was a good idea. And thanks to Sarah - she found an article that stated that. I'm about 99% sure that's what caused it. Unless he's suddenly allergic to the dogs or cat? There is nothing else I can think of! It took 4 days for his rash to be gone. It was so scary looking :( It didn't cause him any discomfort and his mood was still the same. I just hated looking at it!
I can't believe that Logan is 8 months old now! I haven't taken his 8 month pictures yet (yesterday because of the rash) and today because he had a really short nap and was kinda grumpy tonight - not good for taking pictures! I'm hoping tomorrow we'll be able to get some. I weighed him again tonight and he's still at 16lbs 2oz. I'm hoping that's okay! He's only gained 4oz since last month. He's around 27 inches long - not sure what he was last month, but pretty sure it was 27 or close to. I know in my baby book there is a time where I didn't grown as much, I think it's normal - I hope at least! I'm so excited for his 1st birthday party. I have so many ideas I can't wait!
