Today I have made a commitment to restart my working out and trying to make healthier food choices. I have kinda been eating terrible the past week. Way too many kind neighbors with yummy Christmas treats, too many Christmas parties with delicious goodies and too many yummy snacks at work. I have given in and now it is hard to eat my celery and carrots! Today I passed up the homemade cookies brought to us last night. I had to let my kids and husband eat them all so I wouldn't be tempted. This time of the year is so hard!

This week has gone by so fast and I only made it to the gym 2 times. Oh well. I guess I will just do what I can.

Well, I don't like the numbers that are on my scale right now. I did pretty good on Thanksgiving, but I had trouble with the left overs! I had 2 pieces of pie yesterday! Oh well, I am getting back on track today. I went to the gym this morning and ran extra to try and make up for this weekend.

Hello, I haven't had time to exercise at all this past week. I am excited for Thanksgiving and am going to try hard to stay in control of my eating. Holidays are so hard.

This week has been another rough one! I am in process of switching jobs and the training for my new one is very stressful! I didn't get time to exercise very much last week but I think (for the most part) I stayed on track with trying to make healthy food choices. Usually during stressful times I would eat, eat, eat to feel better. Then I would end up getting more stressed out because I was pigging out. So I am thankful for my balance eating habits that I have been learning the past 14 months.

This week is going to be a challenge to exercise. I have to work a lot more than usual and If I do exercise it will have to be in the evenings (which is nearly impossible when my 4 kids are bugging me.) I have tried working out from home but my 2 year old is always "helping" me. We will see how it goes.

I totally forgot about the weigh-in. I remembered in the middle of the night on Saturday, so I got up got ready for work on Sunday (5am) without thinking about in again until I was walking out the door. My weight this month is fully clothed and I had already eaten/drank water. So 165 is really 160ish. This is awesome for me. I am not really even trying to diet (I was a little obsessed before). I am just making healthier choices and the weigh is still coming off. YEAH.
