It's amazing how the little habits that we created over the years come as natural as taking a breath. I notice this as I walk by the table where my kids have their "spread" from Halloween. I grab a "fun size" snickers and pop it in my mouth without thinking twice.
I on the other hand do not find my size fun, the opposite is true of that. Nor do I think that 20 fun size candy bars gulped down is fun either. I hate that feeling you get after you have engulfed an entire bag of something.
It takes alot to retrain my brain to realize that fun size to me is feeling good about how I look, and if anyone knows me I'm stubborn (very stubborn) especially when it comes to my eating habits. Growing up I was the girl who could eat anything and not put on an ounce....well, I'm not 17 anymore (by a few years). So I'm thankful ,well I try to be, for a husband who holds me accountable whether it's exercise or food. Surprisingly enough I get defensive about what I eat or if I worked out.....but, that's price you pay when you ask people to hold you accountable.
Thank you God for giving me a husband who supports me and wants to be "fun size" right along with me:)
BTW~I had a great walk outside today! And only had one fun size candy bar...not 20:)
yea!!! good girl! my husband is holding me more accountable since he let me get "my" treadmill! boy does that accountability stuff hurt!
