Fighting For A Life Worth Living

Days 48-50 I Did Something Bad...Very Bad

It has been a while since I last wrote and a lot has happened since then. Life has been crazy and my diet has been as well. Sunday was Father's Day and we spent it with both of our fathers. It had been suggested on Saturday that we have a cookout at a park, but with such short notice I couldn't reserve a shelter house and had to pray we could find one. The good news is that we did. We all had a great time at the picnic, but I did something I am not proud of.

I believe I have mentioned my sister-in-law in my blogs before, but if I haven't, she too is trying to achieve a healthier lifestyle. Right now she is trying to cut sugar out of her life. This last week has been very tough on her and she has went through strong sugar withdrawals. At the party my mom made my dad's favorite dessert. It's called cherry delight and it is delish. I tried to get my sister-in-law to eat some and I feel awful about it. As a person who is trying to get healthier myself, I know how tough it can be to say no to a food without anyone pressuring you. I tried telling her it had cherries so she would be ok. In the future I will have to be more alert and make sure I never do that again. We depend on each other for support and I let her down. I do want to applaud her, she didn't take one bite of that dessert!
