According to my family, I don't eat enough.

On Friday night, my family decided to gang up on me to discuss how little I eat now. It's so interesting to me that the exact same people who have encouraged me to lose weight for years are now telling me I don't eat enough.

My dad commented on how I was a cheap lunch date because I ordered off the children's menu and my sister went on and on about how she doesn't think I am eating enough.

PEOPLE - I can only have one cup of food per meal. You know this. I've told you several times.

When they made said comments, I felt like i had to defend myself. I mean come on! Be supportive instead of critical.

I will admit that it was pretty difficult to stay "on track" while in Dallas. I was sure to eat a South Beach bar every morning and tried very hard to ensure consumption of protein and veggies. It's not easy when your entire family insists on thick crust pizza for a meal. I literally had one piece of pizza and didn't eat the top part of the crust. With a little salad, it filled me up but I felt SO guilty about eating greasy pizza. I'd rather have a chicken breast or piece of fish. WHAT IS WRONG WITH ME???

I'm feeling pretty guilty because I haven't been to the gym since last Tuesday. I promised myself I would go today. There's a yoga class tonight at 6:30, but I've got plans so that won't work out. I think I will go and do some cardio and from this point on, try and schedule around those classes. I KNOW I've got to start toning. I already feel saggy and that's not fun. At all.

More later!
