Back In The Groove

     I think I have finally recovered from our weekend in Atlanta! All I can say is what a weekend! It was truly a roller coaster. We did everything we wanted to, and had a lot of fun, but there were a lot of things that didn't go oh so great. It's ok, though. We survived and go to spend time with Roger's cousin, Leah. I am so grateful for that! She is an amazing person and I already miss her so much!
     We got 3 ballgames in on our trip. The minor league game we went to on Friday night was a lot of fun... once we go there! It really made me wish we had a minor league club in Northern Colorado. This park was so empty, and the team was playing in the playoffs. I really think this area could have filled up that park. I wish I could make that happen! I really didn't think Turner Field (Where the Braves play) was anything special. It was a very nice ballpark, but it really lacked a lot of the extras that other stadiums have. I am interested to see what they do with the new park to make it more exciting. The Falcons game was only the 2nd NFL game I have ever been to, so I didn't have a lot to compare to, but it was a lot of fun! Games are really a lot of fun when you don't have an interest in who wins or loses.
     I didn't do horrible food wise while we were gone. I was very lucky that the hotel we stayed at had a free hot breakfast that actually included a lot of options that worked for me. Not a lot of places go out of their way to have options like that, and it was great to see! I ended up weighing exactly the same when we got home Tuesday morning as I did when we left Saturday morning. I would definitely call that a win while being out of town for 4 days!
     This week back at work really hasn't been as challenging for me as it has been in the past few weeks. I think I'm back to the point where I'm not thinking about food all of the time, and that is definitely a great feeling. I'm concentrating on getting a good, hearty yet healthy breakfast in in the mornings and it is really helping me get through the whole morning without ending up starving at lunch. I'm also getting back into the grove of making dinners at home again. I really do enjoy cooking, and if I plan ahead it really isn't that much work.
     Sometimes it feels silly to me putting these thoughts into this blog. I've said it before, but it's still true. This blog is really helping me get back on my journey to success. It makes me feel accountable, even if I am the only person that reads what is written here. The addiction to food truly is like any other addiction. It's a process, and sometimes it can feel like a very lonely one. I know I'm not alone, and for that I am forever grateful. I have so many amazing family members and friends that help me every day whether they realize it or not.
     I am looking forward to weigh in on Sunday and getting closer to the next fitting in the dress!
