It is mid-week and I am feeling better after my second relapse. I felt worse than I had the first time I had relapsed but I am just glade that I was able to overcome it again and not just give up. I was afraid that I would just give up after that second relapse but I am in day five of week four so I am doing good! I have been doing good with the snacks, I have been trying some new things like hummus and peanut butter with veggies. I am not a big healthy eater person but I am getting use to it and actually liking it.
7pm- looking back on the last couple of day and weeks, I have noticed that I have made some good changes and improvements. One thing I know that I have changed from when I first started is staying away from eating out. The first two weeks I would eat out a lot and it was hard for me not to get a meal that had some type of bread in it. I had to stay away from fast foods after I realized that I would eventually order a burger or chicken sandwich. Another thing I have been able to see a change in is my attitude towards my family’s non-supportive selves.

That is a little surprising to me because I am not a huge cereal person, I like my bagels or eggs with toast, which right now cannot and will not happen! I have a feeling this weekend will be easier for me, I have a lot today so I will be one the run, staying away from being home and around all that temptation. I decided this time that I would bring my snacks to my parents’ house and keep them with me wherever I go, in case I get a slight urge or craving. I do not have any parties or events to attend so I know I will no be pressured into eating what I shouldn’t be eating! I am really happy that I woke up with a positive attitude about today and that it is going very well so far. I hope I can keep it up throughout the whole
