Friday Food & stuffs!

Once again, the breakfast is letting me down. I need to eat more.   

We are off this afternoon to head into the wild west of Texas.  Dog is coming on his first big roadtrip with us.   Should be fun!! 

I'm promising myself that I am going to make better choices on food. except tonight.  We are rolling through College Station and there is a fabulous restaurant there that we get to once a year.  However, I think we are going to get a main and 3 appies to share and a dessert to share.  Its a wonderful local, fresh chefs place and we like to indulge there.   Since we will be getting plaenty of exercise this weekend walking around, we are going to splurge tonight. 

Anyway. here is what happened today so far.

Thursday Foods!

I'm feeling a little more positive.   I think that setting the bar too high is as bad for me as too low.  I had a couple chats with the husbeast about it. And I need better moderation of all things.  Less swings and more "manageable" changes.   I hate that when I go off diet I then just lose all control.   Not good.

The main thing that I've noticed on my last few weeks is that my breakfasts have been getting smaller again.  I know that if I eat closer to 600 or 700 in the morning then I dont eat 1,000 calorie dinners.

Must make a better effort to get back to that.

Wednesdays Food

Woke up this morning and I was actually hungry!!   Its been a few weeks since I was actually hungry and not just presumptively eating to ensure that I was never uncomfortable.

I think that I’ve done enough wallowing for this month, and its time to put on my big girl panties and start buckling down again.  Where is the me that was all “this is going to be hard, I know that, and I want to do it anyway”… I want her back.

Food Report - Tuesday

Yesterday I managed to send myself into CRAZY-LAND by not eating anything from 10 until almost 2pm but some 40 mini jelly beans.  Hello Sugar Induced Psychotic break.  Nice to meet you.

I ended up eating chocolate and half a box of Kashi cereal on the couch because that was the best thing that was going to keep me from eating a bucket of ben & jerry's.  

Sad.

Ahh, daylight savings... how I hate thee

Blarg, I've felt like a run over rat all day.  I couldn't get to sleep last night, I couldn't get up this morning.  Phew... time change is hard on a poor sleeper like me.

Enough about that. I need to get back to working out, I need to get back to regular blogging, I need to get back to tracking my food all day.

I've also not weighed in and I know why. Because if it was made of food, I've been jamming it in my pie hole.

Friday... getting better by degrees

Right, for the last 2 weeks I've hardly had more then 3 glasses of water a day.  My water bottle at the office has sat dry as a bone all day and I've just soldiered on. 

I've felt like a$$ and that is the main culprit.  How am I supposed to feel good when I am all dehydrated.

ANYWAY.   Water today is getting consumed and I'm feeling good.

Co-worker brought in homemade brownies and I ate one.   F**ks sake.  Is WEAKNESS MY MIDDLE NAME.   the sugar cycle is a killer. So that is the only sweet that I will have today.   Already gone before 10.30am. 

Okay - back to work.
