Struggling

Grrr….  I can’t seem to help myself at dinner time!!   I eat what ever and however much I want!  How do I stop myself?????  In the morning and throughout the day I am fine but at dinner time I just eat so much.  At my house we usually go for what is easiest or fastest, therefore not so healthy. This week I have pretty much no time to work out.  I did a really good workout on Monday then tuesday I did some at home stuff like weights and sit ups but no cardio.  Last night I was in a meeting until after 9:00 and tonight I have plans with friends.  Of course tomorrow is Halloween so I’ll be busy with the kids all night and then I have a party after all the kid’s stuff.  There is just no room!!!  But of course there’s plenty of room for eating!!  There is food at every event…and not the healthy kind!  I need all the encouragement I can get to get through this week!!

No Energy

I need to boost my energy so bad!  I am working out and eating right but I still cannot wake up!  I know it is mostly from the medicine I take but I’ve got to figure something out!!  I’m going to challenge myself to stop drinking caffine.  This is going to be so hard for me!!  I love my coffee in the morning and my Diet Pepsi in the afternoon!!!  I know apples have natural caffine so I’ve bought me a large bag of apples and I’m going to live on them!!  I’ve already had my coffee this morning so its going to be hard to get throught the afternoon without my pepsi but I’m gonna do it!! 

Blogging to stay motivated

I don’t really have much to blog today but I feel like if I dont i’m going to loose my motvation.  I have been wanting to weigh myself all week but my scale doesn’t work properly.  I can weigh myself 10 times in a 5 minute period and get 10 lbs difference each time.   My husband keeps forgetting to stop on the way home an get a new one.  Grrrrr.  I’ve been so tired all week and tonight is my gym night so I’ve got to find some energy!!  I’m doing the most boring job at work today so no excersize there, I might just fall asleep!  Anyway I think I’ve complained enough!!  On the positive side I really think I have lost about 2 lbs since my last accurate weigh in!  So hopefully buddyslim is working for me!!  I have been doing really well with watching what I eat which I am so proud of!  I still slip up when I see Pizza or most reciently cookies and such but I have stopped myself even then when I REALLY wanted more!  So Yay Me!  Wish me luck this weeked when I go to Chicago to see Dirty Dancing on Broadway!!!  I’m so excited!!  This i my 1st broadway show!!  Anyway it is going to be an entire weeken trip with all the women in my family so I know there will be plenty of food put in my face!!
