Last week was a total bust as far as eating goes. Too many Valentine treats. Too many excuses to not eat the way I should. I did get my exercise it. In fact I had some really good exercise days. On Thursday I hit 5 miles (that included my warm up and cool down), and I ran at a 6 for most of it. Friday I went to Zumba, Saturday I ran again. Despite these good workouts, I fully expect the scale to reflect a gain again tomorrow.

I'm having a hard time with the eating thing. A friend said something that made me think about my attitude towards food, "It's not that you can't eat these things, you have to get to where you don't want to." It's true. I shouldn't want to. I need to adopt this attitude.

Here's hoping for a better week. I'm not off to a great start. Zumba was cancelled, and I didn't get up early enough to run because I was suppose to go to class. I'll have to squish it in somewhere.

breakfast (266):
1 c. Kashi cereal (190)
1/4 c. blueberries (21)
1/2 c. 1% milk (55)

lunch (434):
meatball minestrone (372)
nectarine (62)

I really don't feel like doing this today. I think I've reached a point where I've given up to some degree. I'm not where I want to be, I can't seem to stay at the half-way point even. I keep bouncing to it. I just want to eat brownies. Which is silly, because as delicious as they are, they don't make me feel better. And I end up eating half the pan or more. I need to develop that part of me that has control. I need to grow my spirit so that it's making the decisions and not my body. Ugh. If I can just get through this grumpy, gray, kids are home from school driving me crazy and all I want to do is lock myself in my room with a pan of brownies and a movie day.

snack (240):
chocolate protein powder (100)
1/4 c. frozen raspberries (40)
banana (100)

dinner (960):
3 slices Dominos veggie pizza @ 320 calories a piece

1900 for the day. Not enough room for one of the PB balls Chloe is making for our FHE treat.

Ugh. Ate bunches of peanut butter balls. Tomorrow is a new day right?
