Blog 6 - Moment of Truth

Okay, well, here's a shock. Jess, I weighed myself on your scale and it says 127.4. I almost had a heart attack! I thought for sure I was still around 140. I weighed myself five times and got the same number every time. This whole eating better thing has really helped. Now I just need to get on the exercise bandwagon!

1 Strawberry Fruit and Grain breakfast bar
20 Crackers with All Natural Sundried Tomato Hummus
Tomato Parmesan Pasta Roni (Whoops!)
Decaffeinated Tea

So, I'm sitting here watching that show on Discovery channel with the Navy Seal survivor guy whose name is Bear. That's hot and so is he! ;) Oh, the show is Man vs. Wild. Haha. It just flashed that.

I realize that instead of sitting here watching Hottie Bear that I need to get movin'! Haha. It's oh so hard. That's the hardest part of my workout. Moving! I'm controlling my eating pretty well. I have lessened my snacking hardcore. When I come home from work I make supper instead of eating a snack. That's why I like staying until five now. When I come home earlier I'm much more likely to want to eat.

Oh, Bear's back on. He's in the Australian outback. He's very inspiring. There he is tramping around the outback, two days water starved and I just ate a good supper and am arguing with myself about taking a walk! Silly me!

I'm excited that Jess is going to give me her scale. I hope that helps me. My 140 was what I weighed the last time I stepped on a scale at a friend's house. I'm not sure where I'm at now, but I feel like my body is happier - my stomach feels smaller, my face looks less full. I feel generally happier since I've changed my diet. Yay!

Is anyone else troubled by a candy jar at work? Haha. I am. There's one guy at my work who is obsessed with chocolate and he put some on my desk today in the shape of a smiley face so I figured it was only polite to have some, right? Luckily, it was dark chocolate... no fat. But I know I can't do that anymore. It didn't taste that good anyway... it didn't taste as good as I had remembered.

All right, I did have a beer and some low fat ice creme, but all in all, I was out and about sweating and I think that I did pretty good in terms of exercise. Woo! I also got to see some AWESOME fireworks, the best fireworks I've ever seen in my life and Transformers! I had an Icee and I'm not sure if they are high in fat or whatev, but oh well. I hope everyone had an equally cool day and had fun while at least sort of sticking to their goals. More later!
