I am so tired today. I think I am going to have to take a lot of breaks to get up an walk a bit or I may fall asleep at my desk. It's been gloomy here so I think that's part of it, and I didn't sleep well last night, so that doesn't help either. Maybe an early bedtime will be in my future, which sounds wonderful.

On the eating and exercise front, I feel like I've done well this week. My kids and hubby made themselves buttery grilled beef and cheese sandwiches on Texas toast last night, but I stuck with wraps instead. I knew if I had that bread and butter it would hurt my stomach, so thinking about that really turned me off of the sandwich, and the wrap was good and I could make two small ones for less calories than one of those sandwiches. I'm liking my exercise program so far too, so hopefully I stick with it. I'm going to struggle after work today to get it done because of being tired, but I just have to get myself changed and do it.

That's it for me. I hope everyone has a great day!!

I had a drop from last week, so I'm on the right track. I did eat a few extra snacks over the weekend though, so I'm going to try to figure out this new eating plan this week to see if maybe something would be better to snack on. The plan I'm following is about timed nutrition and eating certain types of foods at certain times, but I'm still learning. Normally I just try to eat healthy foods and stay within a calorie budget, but since I'm doing this program with a friend I want to stick to it as much as I can and try to learn something along the way. I think my hurdle is trying to choose foods that will fill me up and eating those at the right times and in the right quantities. When I'm at work it's much easier because I have nothing else to grab and eat (unless someone brings me cake), but at home there are chips, or granola bars, or just other things that I can get into. After my extras over the weekend I feel bloated today, so lesson learned, and hopefully I'll remember for next time.

I'm just going to keep plugging away. I hope everyone has a great Monday!!

I thought yesterday was going to be great because I had my plan, but my hubby kind of threw a wrench in the works last night. He was off work yesterday and usually on those days he'll start dinner while I'm doing my workout. Well, instead of making what I had planned he ordered pizza. What the?!! He was tired so he didn't feel like cooking and didn't want to wait for me to get done working out to make dinner. I ate one piece, but I stuck with the one. I made myself some fruit and had a slim fast shake with it and I was good. I may have been a little higher in my calories because of the pizza, but I was able to stick to the one piece, so that's progress for me. Usually I'd just throw in the towel, gorge myself on the pizza, then regret it later, but I didn't regret the one piece. The struggle is real and this is life, sometimes people are too tired to make dinner and just want pizza, but that doesn't mean I can't control myself.

Here's hoping today brings me no food surprises!! Have a great Friday everyone!!

Yesterday I beat the cake demon, for the most part. I ended up eating a few bites of cake, which I did record in my food diary and it may have been a high estimation, but I threw most of the cake out. I had a few people who gave me the suggestions for saying no next time, and I usually do, it's harder for me when they set the cake on my desk and wait around for me to take a bite. It didn't do any damage, so I'm just proud of myself for actually throwing almost all of it out. My old habit would have been to eat both pieces of cake and then skip my lunch or healthier options later, and maybe not even do a workout because I would feel miserable after eating the junk food. I know I can have willpower, I just need to keep exercising it.

Today, there is no cake to worry about. I've got my healthy options and I'm moving forward. Also on the plus side, tomorrow is Friday!!

Have a great day all!!
