So, as John told me a LONG time ago and was CORRECT, the more I write on here the more diligent and smart about my food choices I am. Today will be my 3rd day straight of eating healthy and working out. Woo....hooo. lol. I notice that I'm GREAT from waking up til about 5pm. I won't even eat a BITE of something that I think is "bad food". Then this OTHER side of me kicks in and thinks it's a big free-for-all. It's really hard to get into the right mentality at night for some reason. If anyone has any suggestions for that would be great. It's from about 5-10pm that I get all the cravings. And it's not because I'm NOT eating enough throughout the day, because I am. Urg. Well, hopefully I'll be successful again tonight at eating my healthy chicken/turkey/or salad. Whatever it is.
Okay, well, nothing new from me, I guess. Hope everyone has a safe and fun weekend!

goal by Dec. 6: 143- 3 lbs to go

Well, I know it's been over a month now with me writing ZERO. While in Pracs I did try a couple of times, but my internet connection there was so crappy that by the time I'd hit "post" I'd get a page that said "internet explorer cannot display the page", that was ANNOYING.
Well, I'm through with Pracs, I still have to drive that crazy 5 hour trip one more time NEXT Friday to do all my follow up visits and stuff. I didn't lose "alot" in Pracs, but it did jumpstart me, so that's good! Right when I came back, we celebrated John's bday and saw the movie "bee movie" so that horrible movie theater popcorn lured me in. Also, right when I got out of Pracs I stayed a night with my sister and we had a girls night out (which involved yummy food and stuff....) Then I ate well until Thanksgiving and that wasn't as BAD as it could've been, but looking back, I could've made healthier choices. THEN, I was off in the state capital for the weekend for Christmas shopping and basically just a weekend of fun, and THAT was where I ate the most. But...considering all that and here it is a week later and I'm trying to get into the gym routine AND I've eaten well the last couple of days, I'm hoping that I can hang on and just push through. Another thing that tries to hamper my ability to lose weight is the "comfort" issue. Right now, mid-140s I have all these clothes that fit and I'm used to how I look like this. 10 lbs smaller and I don't have as many clothes and 20 lbs smaller, I don't think I have any. (which would be a fun excuse for a shopping spree)...but still. Who knows? I feel like RIGHT NOW I have a large amount of ambition but I know I've written those very words many, many times....so I'll just go with the flow. As of right now, I'm doing great. Hopefully tomorrow, I'm still doing great. :)

I'm going to do a one week goal (Dec. 6). 143, I think I can hit that easily because I'm hitting the gym this week for the 1st time in a month, AND I'm eating really clean.
