Day two

Ahhhhh, day two, what a crazy day you were........

It started off with the ever so tasty shaken passion tea lemonade, or whatever the heck it is call, and boy was it fantastic.......seriously I love that drink.....I can only imagine how much sugar it has in it when a glass is 4 points, but it's worth it......

For dinner I made haddock and scallops.....Mmmmmm, perfect way to end the night........

Today I had a small taste about what my life will be like very soon enough. For the past 12 weeks, I have been off work b/c I had surgery......you see, I usually work 7-3, which screws up my eating schedule completely, so one of the things I need to get in order is making a shake or something, b/c there is no way I can stop at Starbucks every morning, or lol I need to hope they open at 7am, not 6am!!!!!


One of the things I find insanely frustrating is I feel so alone being overweight, not physically alone, b/c I have my boyfriend who loves me and all, but alone with your feelings of being fat or what it feels to be fat, and I realize, when I am eating chips and my sister is working out, that I have made choices to be fat and I get it, but its very lonely too, you can't shop in all the stores as your friends, you don't check yourself out in the mirrors at the mall etc.........I often wonder how do you get self control.......is it something you just tell yourself everyday or do you just really really want to be thin, so you get self control, and what happens when you really really love food and can't stop yourself.........

These are things I need to learn and tackle before I get thin I guess.......

Congrats on another day done!

Two things I've learned to love... Crystal Light pink lemonade shaken into my water bottle because I REALLY miss juice, and one (or two) homemade mochas each and every day... simply can't afford Starbucks, but found I could afford a Starbucks travel mug so I can make my own.

Bring on day three! Good luck!

Hi there! Firespark from the WW boards here :)

I love Starbucks too, but I get the Shaken Passion Iced Tea (without the lemonade). They add a "classic" syrup to sweeten it - really it's just sugar water.

But I like to ask them to substitute the classic with the sugar-free vanilla (that they add to Skinny Vanilla Lattes) and I love it! Plus no points for the syrup (just the lemonade in your drink). It does add a vanilla taste, but I find it goes well with the Passion Iced Tea. :)
