Just touching base quickly since I'm trying to get out the door. It's almost noon, yikes! Anyway, didn't do any exercise yesterday, but I ate well. At the mexican restaurant I didn't eat ANY chips and salsa - not ONE!! I ordered the taco salad w/ chicken and no cheese or guacamole (ew) and didn't eat the shell. I was bad and had one of those little McDonald's sundaes though. But ya know, one treat like that for the week isn't bad, so I'm not worried about it. I couldn't go to sleep for some reason last night. I think I was stressing about the future...where to go to school, money, the rest of my life, Greg's job, etc. so I was in bed on my laptop until about 3 and then turned it off and tossed and turned for a while after that. Kept waking up. Greg bugged me when he left about 10:30 this morning that I was still in bed (plus I had cramps) and I just told him I couldn't sleep and didn't feel well. Oh well. Feeling better now and just ready to get things done. Sometimes I hate being in this mode b/c my mind is constantly racing to get the next thing accomplished and while that's nice sometimes it can be hard to turn off.
On a good note...I have been checking the scale everyday which I know I probably shouldn't do, but I normally don't get too discouraged. And luckily this week I haven't had to! This morning I weighed in at 127.0 that's a 1.8 lb loss from MONDAY; woo hoo! I'm just hoping the scale keeps going down and shows those kinds of results for weigh in.
I'm planning on going to the Y and doing my Jillian Michaels workout today, but it will have to be tonight. My job has to be done outside in the daylight, so since I only have about 6 more hours I need to get a move on. Anyway, I've been keeping up with everyone's journals and will read more later tonight!
Have a great Thursday! Alaina
