Plateaus and Friendship

Well, the plateau is here. And hopefully its not to stay for long. All i want is to stay on track with losing 4 pounds a week. But i may have to settle with 2. That can't be so bad. I'll just have to adjust my thinking and go forward as always. I have not eatten one single treat or dessert and have even kept my fruit to a minimum for 30 days. Today is day 30! That is something and i'm just looking forward to seeing months go by like this. 'Til my addiction to dessert everyday and sugar in every cup of joe and no self denial is way far behind me. A thing of the past. Do you know how easy its been, though? So easy, until day 28. Then it felt like i could hardly keep myself from a snack between my every three hour meals. I did . But, Why? I think this time i'm going to chalk it up to emotions. With Renee moving i feel like i'm losing part of my family. Shoot, i spend more time with her and Adora and Chloe during a regular week than i do with my husband. That girl has become my closest friend and i think we don't keep anything back from eachother and live so openly that i'm going to be losing a sister. We have had all that a good relationship needs to flourish. To begin with we don't live in some dreamland where 'its all good'. You know. We have had to apologize to eachother over grievances, we've cried, been in similar boats with our children and husbands, we've mostly laughed at funny stuff and enjoyed many meals and sunny days and a few Rubios tacos. actually, probably dozens of tacos. I wish i could really share how i love that girl right here. But i think she knows. All i can say is if any of you gets a chance to hang with this girl like i have don't let it get by you. She is a jewel and i mean that in a hundred different ways. My Proverbs 31 friend! I love you Renee. i will miss you in the biggest way, until you come back. Then i will hope to live right near you again.
