Weight This Morning

Well, this morning I was down to 196.  This fluctuation is baffling me.  I know it is natural.  But this inconsistant?  Really?  I am going to call tomorrow to get my appointment with my OBGYN for a followup to all of my bloodwork.  I am not looking for a quick fix.  I just want something that works for me, and I have exhausted all of my resources within my means trying to figure out what is best for me.

I wish I could get my husband on board 100% with this whole healthy eating thing.  He WANTS to be, but when it comes down to it, he refuses to give up the "nabs".  I can't make him see that even the Cheese-Its and Chex-Mixes aren't as "healthy" as he wants to believe.  He is "one of those" who can stop drinking coke for a day and lose 5 pounds.  So, he has this justification that he is within his healthy weight, so he should not have to give up the snacks he enjoys. 

Thus the journey to transform my FAMILY into healthy eaters hits a roadblock everytime we go to the grocery store.  Here I am, trying to buy healthy for myself and the kids, and he screws it up.  I NEED for him to convert to this healthy lifestyle as much as I need for me to.  I LOVE healthy snacks.  And I think my kids do to when they ask for them.  But, what 3 year old is going to choose carrots over check-mix?  Not many.

I have a long raod ahead of me.  And for now it is pretty lonely.
