Unintentional Fasting?
I just realized that I haven’t eaten a single thing since my smoothie this morning.
My mouth hurts too much to even think about eating. This is not fun.
I think I’m gonna try and either make a smoothie for dinner or go somewhere and buy some soup. I need to eat anything that doesn’t require much chewing.
The good thing is that I have been drinking water like crazy....

Product Review: Erewhon Cereal
A couple weeks ago I was contacted by Attune Foods about testing some cereals and writing a review. Of course I said yes! Normally I am not a big cereal eater and I am VERY picky about the cereal I like, so I figured I would be a tough one to impress.
The two cereals that were given to me to try out were Erewhon “Strawberry Crisp” & “Crispy Brown Rice: Mixed...

Time to finish strong.
We have all heard the saying, “It’s not about how you start, but how you finish.”
So let’s end 2011 by kicking ass this last week of the year. Let’s finish this year healthy and strong!
I’m going to end this year better than I have ended any other year!
Let’s all end this year better/stronger than we started it!
My dad just had to make things awkward...
Thanks Dad.

I am do incredibly bloated!!
And the scale showed it this morning.
235.8
Bleh.
In the last two days I have stayed under my calorie goals, BUT I haven’t been eating the right foods, thus the bloating.
At least I know it’s just water weight, but it sure does not feel good or look good on the scale.
Today I am back to the right foods.
As much as I love Christmas and the holidays, I am so ready for all...
Yayy for getting stuck in the elevator!
That was fun!….NOT.
Not cool.
I need advice from y'all!
Ok…soooo…
There is this guy at work that I’ve been friends with since like August. Well since like October things have kinda turned into a friends with benefits kinda thing. (weird, I know)
Well I just found out that he is spending Christmas completely alone. All his family lives across the country and his friends are all going out of town. I hate knowing he has to sit around...

Having a "secretive relationship" at work...
…is actually kinda fun.
(Oops…did I really just say that?)
;)
Oh Monday...
I really really really wish I didn’t have to go to work today. Pretty much everyone I know is on vacation now. I wish I could hang out with all my friends that are in town for the holidays. Oh well. I’m definitely moving slowly today… not in any rush whatsoever to get to the office. Just made my lunch & did my daily weigh-in…
Weigh-A-Day:
12/1: 242.0 (Day 1)
12/10:...
No weigh-in today.
Not because I don’t want to…but because there is no scale to be found where I currently am.
About to meet my parents at church for the Christmas Cantata & then going to see the Nutcracker w/ my roomie!
I am sooooo tired due to the events of last night. But I am excited about today’s activities!

P.S. I sure hope last night does not come back to bite me in the...
I might regret this tomorrow, but live in the...

“ichoose2focus replied to your post: Busy, busy day. Temptations galore.
Why would you knowingly host a cookie exchange given your desire to avoid temptation? That I do not get - but good luck with it!”
Because I love hosting parties! And I love baking for others! So this party is a win-win for me. My party actually won’t really be a temptation for me. I don’t get tempted...
Busy, busy day. Temptations galore.
I have SO much to do today that I will be running around like a chicken with it’s head cut off! But I did manage to squeeze in a weigh-in. Looks like resisting the party temptations last night paid off! Love seeing the scale move in the downward direction!

I was a nickel away from having a Diet Coke.
Good thing I was a nickel short. Otherwise I would have ruined my 4 day streak of no diet coke.
Meh.

Expected. I ate within my calories, but I did eat a lot of salty foods yesterday and I feel bloated this morning. It happens. But at least it’s only a 0.2 increase!
This weekend will be full of temptations! After work today I have a Rotaract Christmas...

Being the best possible ME.
I have come to realize that for once in the many times that I have tried to lose weight in my life, I am actually 100% doing this for myself this time. I will totally admit that the last few times have been for silly reasons like: “I need to look good for guys to like me” or “I need to make (insert name) like me now.” Yep, I was totally being that person that was losing weight to convince myself...

Basically in 2 weeks I have lost 5.4 pounds. I’ll take it! I have been more consistent with my eating these last two weeks than I have been in MONTHS! I love the accountability of weighing in daily.
Now that I’ve gotten the hang of the eating and weighing thing again. I need to get back into the...
