Smiling doughnuts!


First of all I want to thank you all for your comments ..... they all put a smile on my face when I read them!  Thank you all for the support ........ it's just what I need!  :)

So, I do have to say I am a bit anxious about weighing in tomorrow.  I have been working hard to get that 10 lbs. lost badge.  But, when I did my scale check this morning I think it has a different goal in mind for me.....I might have to wait till next week to get it.  :(   We'll see tomorrow morning when I do the official weigh in.  I have been anxious all day about what I eat today......I don't want to fall into the trap of only trying real hard right before I weigh in and slack off the few days after weigh in.  I want to make good choices about food all the time no matter if weigh in is tomorrow or not!  So far I have been making good choices most every day.....I just don't want to fall into a bad habit as I've done so often before.

I did 1hr. work out today and it went well I think I'm feeling good about the  "big Saturday event" although I will need to practice the rest of the week to really be ready.  I have been thinking hard about this and wondering if I should post info on it or not. It is very much a part of my life and I do want to continue with it. Well, I have been reading other peoples blogs and impressed by the fact that they can be so open.....I can't even post my weight.....I did put a picture of my face on here......and I'm working on getting before pictures together.  I am just afraid of the comments, peoples opinions, like I have had in face to face life.  But, so far I haven't seen the negative stuff going on here like in face to face life.  I have seen so much encouragement and support......I never knew it would be so positive.  So, I'm working on getting the courage to share my "secret" with everyone on here.....soon, I hope.  :)

I wanted to share with all of you my beautiful doughnuts that I made last night.  I baked them and then put a light glaze on them.  Not sure the calorie content??  they are a yeast dough, very fluffy and light, baked....so not all the fat of a regular doughnut, and a light glaze made from powdered sugar and water....oh and vanilla.  My family is loving them....I had one last night and didn't feel bad about it afterwards.  ( I did feel bad about the little left over dough piece that I ate though, you know the piece of dough that isn't big enough to make a doughnut out of but you bake it anyway  :P) They really turned out nice!

I'm glad you found my blog and appreciate your encouraging words. I see you are doing well yourself and off to a great start. I understand how hard it is to share all that stuff that has always been just for you. I have found that sharing has given me an outlet for all the stuff that keeps me EATING. There are some things that I opt not to share, but that is more out of respect for family/friends if it might hurt anybody's feelings. Putting my weight out there the first time was VERY HARD, but once I did it was like I opened a door of shame that I had stayed locked behind for to long. God has set us free from bondage and condemnation...so think on that and it should make sharing for your own sort of therapy that much easier! Just some thoughts from where I've been and where I've come. I have far to go, but will get there because I'm not in it alone, I have a Heavenly Father who promises to never leave or forsake me. (Sorry I didn't meant to write a book, I tend to ramble once I get started).
