Well today didn't get off to a good start...I slept through my Finance class and ended up getting a chicken sandwich and fries from Chic Fil A...
BUT!! I went grocery shopping and got tons of fruits and veggies and healthy snacks....then I ended the day running a mile around the lake, going to the gym and ran another 2 miles, and worked out my abs and arms. Now I'm doing the responsible thing and am going to Starbucks (for a lite Rooibo tea latte!) and to actually study for Finance!
One positive thing about me today is that my friend offered me part of his massive and delicious-looking vegan chocolate chip cookie at lunch today, and I barely even batted an eye at it. Nooo thank you, sir! I love how I when I'm in a state of sugar addiction, I never seem to believe that my sugar cravings will actually decrease if I cut my intake of sweets... But then when I bite the bullet and actually do it, they ALWAYS do.
I'm SUPER EXCITED!!! After going three weeks without my desktop, and having to use the shoddy laptop, I FINALLY HAVE MY NEW COMPUTER!!! It was well worth the wait! It is totally girly which usually isn't my thing, but it looks a heck of a lot better than the black and blue case that my significant other has!

I feel good about myself today. I know I am looking better because everyone is telling me how good I look but I FEEL better. I am not getting out of breathe like before and I seem to look at life a little different. Oh yeah I think it means I am happy. =)
My landlady was baking again. (Uh-oh.) She gave me a large hunk of carrot cake with cream cheese frosting. I had to stand on the landing with it in my hand, talking with her, for about a half-hour, with the smell wafting up to my nostrils the whole time.
I put it away in my fridge overnight, took it out this morning, and brought it into the office, where I gave it to a male coworker who routinely breakfasts on such fare.
What's sad is that I dreamed of it in the night. I dreamed I ate it & that this took just minutes & then afterward, I was conscious of having done something irreparable. You know when it takes just seconds to screw up something that was okay before?
Thank goodness, the cake is gone. I only ate it in my dream.
^ WTG!!! That is some SERIOUS willpower right there, woman! I am extremely impressed... Especially cuz I've been craving carrot cake for what feels like forever, hehe. But I haven't given in yet, and maybe now your story will inspire me to hold off a little longer.
One positive thing about me today is that I am wearing a shirt that was pretty tight when I bought it, and is now fairly loose! Yea!
OMG scratch that earlier one, my positive thing for today definitely has GOT to be that fact that I got an A on my latest Sosc. paper!!! My first A on any paper, ever at this freakin' school! WOOHOO I feel awesome!
jahjah, I know the feeling!!! I've glowed my whole life! I'm only tanning now in preparation for summer (and honeymoon). 10 minutes twice a week. i'm a wild one! lol
Meredith, WAY TO GO!!! you smart cookie you!
My positive today is I am SO SO SO proud that I've worked out consistently for 3 days. I haven't done that since sometime last fall. I know it's only 3 days, but that's a huge step for me because I've enjoyed it too!!! After all this time of trying, i finally find out that I really am most energized to work out around 8/9 pm while watching my favourite shows.
very cool.
one positive thing about me is that i am wearing my cream sweater dress and I look good. There are no lumps and bumps not to mention I bought the shimmer stockings I have today a year ago and there was no way I could them up!
Now I'm doing the responsible thing and am going to Starbucks (for a lite Rooibo tea latte!) and to actually study for Finance!
