Trying not to take sneak peaks

on my scales. My weigh in day is Saturday. I have been busting butt this week to get and stay on track. I think I am doing good with my journaling my food. I know I need to do this to keep track of every morsel that enters my mouth.  I just need to hide the scales so I don’t get on them every day or even 2 X a day like I have been doing. I have been obsessing with this.

On another note, I think hubby is really starting to think more about what he is eating, but not ready to give it another try. For those of you who know, he has decided to join me in this quest for weight loss numerous times and then just gives up. I am there for him if he wants, but I can’t force him as you know. This has to be something he wants to do for himself. The other night he asked me how many calories where in the peanut butter and jam sandwiches he takes to work every day and when I told him he was shocked, Like I also told him that is if he used only 2 TBS of P/B and 1 TBS Jam on his white bread it is 400 calories each and he takes 2 every day along with chips and cookies etc. I was trying to pack him healthier lunches like fruit and lower fat items and found out he was trying to give them away and get something from the snack machine at work. So I just started packing him his old lunches again. Well he decided not to take P/B and jam anymore and today he has 97% fat free ham. It may be a slow process, but I am going to help him when he asks for help like he did. Other than that it is all I can do. I hope when he sees what I am doing for me and for my health he will decide to jump in himself.

I hope everyone is having a great week!
