I probably Cut off My Head to Spite my Face…..
Regarding my blog about a week ago. I told my ex to take his money and shove it! But in a little nicer way. After two weeks of almost literaly begging him for money for school clothes.
I have a lot of pride(which is one of my downfalls) and don’t like to ask him for anything… Even though he should be supporting his kids. He loves to play games. And if he didn’t have it I would understand like I have in the past. But he told me he has it hes just to busy to deposit it in my account…so I told him to keep it.
I figure it is stressing me out more by getting upset at him and his games. I have made it the last 12 years without him and will keep on making it.
So on the upside I am using all of my energy on myself and my kids( Amanda and Kiara). The scale is starting to creep down a little but not by much. But thats not discouraging me because I have started to loss inches around my C-Section belly! Woohoo! 2inches! Because every night for past two weeks I have been working out. For the past 5 days have been going a total of 5 miles on my Gazelle. I have been drinking at least 6 cups of water daily. I did cheat a little on the weekend but i never went over my fat and calorie limit daily. I am trying to lower my carbs because I think that is one of my problems. Well until the next blog…lol
Everyone one have a great Tuesday!!
Congrats on the inches! AND for standing up for yourself, good job!! I know there will be other ways your needs can be met, I know from experience that God does provide even whe our exes don’t! Good job!
Is it wrong that the first thing I thought of when I read your subject was “hmmmmm, I wonder how much my head ways”. A bit of a one track mind at the moment
Sorry you’re stressed, but congratulations on the inch loss. If you’re running that much you may be increasing lean body mass at the expense of not seeing so much movement on the scales. Although it can be hard to see it as such when we all fixate over weight…. this is a good thing!
Inches off are FAR more better than what the scales say. Stick with it. You are doing a fantastic job!
Hugs,

Yes indeed, you have cut off your nose to spite your face. I understand pride, but you need to put your children first, which I am sure you do and what you said to him was as a direct result of his immaturity. Still, live and learn, next time take the money and buy your girls some well-deserved clothes!
