I do not like this job

It’s so crazy ¬†that we women get so crazy about our weight.

I watched Sandra Bullock on Oprah yesterday. This was the After Oscars Party Special on the Oprah Winfrey Show. Sandra looked incredible in that gold dress. Her body looked fantastic. Oprah asked her what she had planned for the day now the Oscars were over. Sandra kind of said that after 3 months of hardly eating what she wanted to do was eat a large, juicy, burger.

I got on the scales this morning and shock and horror I am 4 lbs heavier than I am used to seeing. Where did these pounds come from? I was horrified. Well now let me just think about this for a moment. Last night I ate this delicious dessert called a hazelnut bomb. It’s basically a sticky, sweet chocolate cake with a single hazelnut on top. My husband and I share the small dessert by dividing it in half. I get this dessert at Fred Meyer and I before I even open my mouth to ask for it the woman behind the counter puts two in the dessert box and smiles sweetly at me. This is how often I buy it ( it’s every week practically ).

So how will I rid my body of these extra pounds? Well, I could reduce the amount of food I eat daily though I do not eat that much throughout the day. This evening we are having sausages and mashed potatoes with vegetables. What I’ll do is have a tiny amount of mash, sausage and lots of veg. I don’t drink alcohol during the week anymore and I hope to run tomorrow ¬†morning. I will get on the scales in a few days time and stop stressing about the damn 4 pounds and how many calories are in the dessert.

I don’t like to worry about weight and what the scales says but I do, I must admit. I just wished that more of us women would just feel good about ourselves and our different body sizes and be comfortable and happy with that. ¬†I know this is easier said than done.

When I go grocery shopping this week I think I will avoid the dessert section, for this week anyway.
