Ok so I'm nearing the end of day 2. I haven't felt hungry at ALL, in exception of a bit this afternoon, but after chugging the needed H2O, I was good to go. I'm happy to say I've got my water consumption up to 1 1/2 gallons per day. Before, I was struggling to get in one gallon, so this is great. Of course I'm using up a roll of TP each day, but it's all good...
Jon was delayed a bit but should be home sometime tomorrow. I'm sooo excited to have him back in the house, but nervous about doing this around him. I KNOW I will do it, but the temptations will just be greater. His style of eating isn't going to change and I know there will be grumbles when he hears that we're having fish and veggies, yet again, for dinner. I'll throw in a baked potato for him, but I'm not planning to make too many meals different from mine. I know I will have to make some things for him that I can't have, but I'm not doing it every night, that's for sure. I can see him now....raiding the cupboards after dinner. ;)
Did I mention I've started a new job? It's only part-time...about 3 nights/wk, serving in a bar and grill nearby. I took the serving spot in hopes of working up to bartending. I wanted something where I could still stay home with Aiden during the day, and this was the quickest way to make the most money in the shortest amount of time. Now...I should mention they are about 10hr shifts lasting WAY past my usual bedtime, but I know the $$ will be worth it. I've heard most girls take home around $300/night on a Saturday night. Plus it's working around mostly older business professionals....it is in NO way a "club". They are open until 3am, which really sucks, but what can ya do. I'll be having lots of fresh grilled chicken and veggies while I'm there though...since that's about all they have that I can eat. Other than that I guess I'll have my own little stash of foods in the cooler that I can eat in a FLASH. I guess I'll look on the bright side. I'll be busting my ass for about 10hrs per shift- that has to up the calorie burn, right?

I've got a grumbling hubby too ... I make him an extra side like Rice-a-Roni (his fav) or Stove-Top. And usually, he ends up eating a late night snack of his choosing. Hey, I did my part though and cooked him a healthy meal of protein and veggies.
I am lucky my hubby is out of town all week even though it pretty much sucks it is great for eating clean, it is the weekends that are hard for me.
The new job sounds great!
Best of luck with the new job & the new adventures with Beka.. :)
Congrats on your new job!! That sounds great, especially since you're able to stay at home with your son.
You are AWESOME for getting in 1.5 gallons of water a day! I think I'm still working on that, but I'm getting there. You are definitely going to be my motivating factor for that among other things. :)
I have the same problem with my husband, only I end up always making him something different. Granted I don't do this every night either. Tonight, for example, I made him a batch of buffalo burgers and I got turkey. It becomes REALLY hard when I start making the yummies like lasagna, pork chops, fettuccini alfredo...*drool*..LOL..
You are so awesome. :)

I was wondering where your blog was! :) Congrats on the new job! That sounds like hard work and a lot of fun all rolled up into one. I always thought it would be so much fun to be a bartender. ...Then reality set in and I remembered that I'm the klumsiest person on earth. :P
I'm in awe of that water consumption... I've been alllmost getting my water in, but it's seriously hard for me! I'm part camel, I think...I could go all day without drinking much of anything.
My husband is the same way... I wish he would eat healthy stuff, but other than chicken, he usually turns his nose up at it and I'll cave and make him something yummy that I can't even sniff of or I'll gain 5 lbs.
You're doing so awesome!! Can't wait to see what Beka does for you! :)
