my journey to a better me

Exciting title, isn’t it?

Not much to say. Just felt like checking in. I am feeling very lonely. I am really missing Jay. It looks like he should be home in early October. About a month. I guess that’s not too long from now, but every day seems like forever without him. I am no longer enjoying my alone time. I am just plain lonely. Not that I don’t have friends, but it’s really not the same. I want him.

On a good note, I cleaned for another hour an a half today. That’s 7 1/2 hours towards my September goal. It feels so good to clean the spots that I haven’t even touched since we moved her 2 years ago. The little nooks and crannies you don’t even notice. This place is going to be amazing if I can keep up with this!

Eating has been fine so far today. It may not seem like I had enough yet, but that’s because I am working overnight and will be eating overnight too.

- apple

- large Almond Joy Iced coffee (it has mocha in it so I skip the skim milk and splenda)

- turkey sandwich on white roll with smart balance mayo (10 cals/Tbsp)

- cup of green grapes

About 600 calories so far. Maybe less. I haven’t logged it yet. I’m planning on bringing a Smartones frozen meal and a couple of low-calorie snacks to work. Guessing around 1100 calories for the day. Maybe I’ll update if work isn’t crazy.

Good luck to everyone. Eat healthy and keep moving!!!
