OK....

So.....maybe this time wasn't so different. I do well for a few days and then fall off the wagon. I fall off the wagon often. I haven't been back on it for over a week now. Ugh. You know, maybe I am just not as mentally ready as I think I am. Or maybe I need the support of others going through the same thing. I don't know. Can someone tell me what is wrong with me?

Maybe I just have too much going on.

1. Work
2. Grad School.
3. Boyfriend (who is wonderful!)
4. Bowling
5. Project Mentor
6. Big Brothers Big Sisters
7. 2 dogs and 2 cats
8. foster kittens
9. LAC (although I missed this month :( )

I think that is about it. I also have to deal with laundry, cleaning, and all that fun stuff. Unfortunately, that stuff hasn't been happening lately.

Oh well. At least it keeps me out of trouble!!!

Class Night

I am sitting in class and asked myself, "What better time is there for an update?" Yes, I am a little bored. What can I say.

My eating is going well. I went a little over today because I let myself get to hungry this afternoon. I ended up getting a Jr. Hamburger with the Mandarian Chicken Salad that I had already planned for dinner. Oh well. It was good and it is over now. I am full, but very thirsty! I need something to drink, but can't just get up during class. I am sure we will have a break soon.

Just wanted to write for some reason. Nothing new to really report.

Weekend Visit & NKOTB

Although it was painful, I recorded my food choices from Friday, the NKOTB concert day. Let's just say it wasn't pretty. At least I danced! It is OK though. I know that it was a special occasion and it is OK to splurge. What's important is that I wrote it all down.

My mom was nice enough to come watch my dogs for me while I went to Cleveland overnight. I have to say that my Mom is one of the nicest. I know that I can count on her. She just started weight watchers so we have been trading journals. It is nice to have her support.

The NKOTB concert was AMAZING!!! I want to see them again. It was sooooo much fun.

Returning.

After about 7 months, I have decided to return. I have a plan now, and this time will be different.

First, I am just recording what I eat. I am not going to "count" calories just yet. I want to analyze what I am doing and why I eat at certain times. Then, I will start counting slowly at first. I will eat at the top of the recommended scale for weightloss. Finally, I will start adding in exercise slowly.

I will post when I can to keep myself honest. :)
