God- Control Today!

I'm back! Yesterday, was busy and a bit depressing in the
evening. I ate some chili that I made after I told myself
that I wasn't going to eat for the rest of the evening!!!
That led to a few tootsie rolls. BUT .... today is a new day!!!
I was tempted by the thought of making scrumptious
pancakes this morning for breakfast and my 13 year
old said as I held up the box to view the nutritional
info, "Mom, don't make those! They are horrible for you.
Do you realize one serving is really only a 4" pancake?"
OUCH!!! That would mean that the amount of pancakes
that I was truly looking forward to would have cost me
way too many points!!! Plus a dab of marg. and syrup...
yikes!!!
Thus, I went with scrambled eggs: 1 whole egg =3 pts plus
3 egg whites= 1 pt. for a grand total of 4 pts. I drizzled some
ketchup on top and yummy!!! I am actually stuffed after
eating those eggs and drinking 1 L. of water. Hooray!!!
The old me would've flipped out at the thought of eating
scrambled eggs without toast... but i did it!!
By the way for all of you who are wondering if I followed
through with mopping the kitchen/laundry room floor
(I hope you are wondering.. that's what you are here for-
to hold me accountable!!)... Anyhow, YES!! It got done.
Why do I dread doing something that only takes about
15 min. and that makes me so happy when it's done?
We have one of those industrial type mops with the huge
bucket on wheels (I think John got it from the mall cleaning
people- that's how giant it is!) Needless to say, it covers more
area than my scrawny older mop.
I must get going... I have to pick up Abby, Evan and
Jonah and Lindsay (Heather's 2 kiddos) in town.
We're just planning to get Johnathan's bedroom done
today- pray that actually happens!!!!
Praying for a lot of "God-Control" today- eat healthy,
NO turning back!!!!!!!
love ya, k
