I have to tell you about the funny thing at the grocery store yesterday. I'm checking out and the store I go to always has candy or sodas or something that they're trying to sell at the cash registers. Well, yesterday it was their version of Coke Zero (store brand). They said they wanted their customers to see that their brand is just as good. I told them I didn't drink sodas and didn't want any. Both the lady at the cash register and the bag boy were completely shocked! They asked what I drink since I don't drink sodas. I kinda giggled because it seems so odd that two people right there would think that there isn't anything else to drink. I told them that we drink mainly water but also drink milk and juice. The lady asked if I drink coffee. I admitted to one of my weaknesses, and she asks if I put sugar in my coffee. "No, I drink it black." The bag boy asks if I'm a vegan or something. lol. I explained that I'm not a vegan or anything, but I just like to eat healthy and have a healthy life.

Since when did it become so shocking to eat and live healthy? Since when did our society become so dependent on junk food that when someone wants to put only good things in their bodies that they are the weird ones.

I've done so well this weekend! I can't even believe it since I've been doing so bad. I ate really good yesterday (ate my worst meal at lunch time, higher calorie meal not necessarily a bad meal). I was wanting to celebrate with one of my children who did really well at piano recital and who wanted ice cream. So, I celebrated with them with some frozen yogurt. It was so yummy and good for you and low in calories. I only went over my "allowed calories" by 5. Plus, it helped with craving something sweet. :)

I went out jogging yesterday morning and did a lot of running around and house work. Then today I got one good workout in and have done a lot of house work (including rearranging my furniture). Plus, I've been running around having tickle wars with my kids. I know that it doesn't technically count as a work out, but it sure does feel like one. lol.

Today with my food, I've been very careful to follow what everything says is a serving portion. Typically when I have sandwiches I like to pile on lots of meat and lots of cheese. Today I only put on what the serving amounts were.

I was having a hard time getting back into the swing of things, but I'm getting more and more into it the farther I get back in it. I knew I would since I love the healthy life.

This week I started doing better on my diet, but I'm really finding it tough to get back on the horse so to speak with the exercise. I finally did get up and do half an hour this morning of exercise (I was doing a full hour before the foot incident). I'm really not feeling the motivation. The desire is still there (especially with my husband's and my anniversary coming up and him saying I'll want to feel good in a nice dress. So, with the desire there where's my motivation? Any help from anyone? I really need encouragement or something or I may never get back on the wagon.

My friend that introduced me to this site asked me if I was still doing my journal on here. He said that I should at the very least keep that at and it may help my motivation to return. It's funny because when I fist started on here I said pretty much the same thing about this journal. So, here I am typing out all of this, and I can't help but think about where I want to be with my weight and body and feel a little motivation to get back out there doing everything again. I was even feeling happier when I was doing all that exercise. I'm naturally a happy person, but last week and especially this week I've been feeling a little down. No particular reason. There's nothing bad going on in my life or anything, but I'm not doing my exercises. I really think that was a great mood lifter for me. I was doing something for myself (not to mention that exercise is a natural mood lifter). Just need to get back in the swing of things.
