Ok, well today is going well. I had cereal for breakfast- cheerios, flaxseed, and 2% milk. I need to get to the store... Anyway, thats been it except I just had a few diet chips. I have to eat something while I am cooking in order to stay out of the bad stuff. I am planning on cod nuggets for lunch with some sort of veggie. Got, to practice self control and not eat to many of them.
I already got in a 45 min. workout. So, doing good so far.
Well, I have got to complain about my daughter who moved out in August. Every since I brought up christmas, she is driving me nuts. She's been texting me, four or five times a day, telling me what she wants.  Geez, man, enough already. lol, I am going to just have to tell her, that I am busy and quit bugging me with silly stuff. I realize she gets bored, but then maybe she needs another job, if she is so bored all the time. Ok, done....got that off my chest....
So, goals for the rest of the day. After lunch all the boys will be gone and I will just have the girls left. So, I am thinking a nice workout while they nap. They always nap so good. So, I should be able to get in a long one.... yeah...
ok, got to go, making meatloaf for the family tonight and got the kiddies food cooking.
will update later..

Well, I went and did my plate and I am way under for calories, since I exercised. So, going for a long workout here soon, then I am going to let myself have some nachos. Diet ones with reduced cheese of course. But, that should bring up the calorie log some. If not, I will have to hit the nuts later.
Funny how that works when your not eating ice cream and poppy seed cupcakes. 
I could just eat light the rest of the day and not exercise. But, I really want a good workout since I didn't do any yesterday. So, I am just going to have to beef up the calories...

Well, I had a nice workout at naptime, which was great. I have already had the nachos and I am still down in calories. So, I just had some other diet chips and some re fried beans. The beans should help. Plus a couple handfuls of marshmellow maties...
My son totally screwed up my night. I wanted to do the walmart thing tonight since I couldn't earlier today. But, no, we have a basketball meeting and I thought maybe my husband would do it. But, he made it clear it was for all three of us... I hate when he acts like that... He's on my list right now. He is over at a friends house picking up some stuff. Be right back, sure after a few beers, I am sure...
Well, whatever!
ok, I got to go find something to do, before I head for the refrigerator again......
will update again in the morning

Ok, well I did end up eating a little bit of the meatloaf- not much, then I had some fish. So, all in all, yesterday was a good day. I think for today, I will only do one of my exercise tapes. I have a ton of stuff to get done today and I only have one kid after school starts this morning. So, going to try and ram allot in today.
lol, I gave my husband my cold. I actually don't feel that bad, just in the mornings and at night. During the day I am good. He's of course miserable. But, he's always been kind of a baby when it comes to being sick.
Anyway, that's all I have to report, got to get busy....will update later...

I am so flipping happy! It's going to be a good day. The parents of my kids came through for me today, and paid up. So, I got everything paid that needed to be paid and I still have some left for shopping......wooohoooo. The last couple of weeks have been hard. It's nice to have some money again. 
Anyway, Going to go to walmart, get stocked up on my diet food again, and get the stuff to finally get my room done. I just need hangers and a blind for the window. Then I can actually change cloths in there, without my freaky neighbor seeing me, lol. I even have enough room in there to hang up my tanks. God, life is good today.
The daughter comes tomorrow, she's not sure she wants to go to the gym or not. So, we are playing that by ear. She has requested chicken and biscuits, so that should be easy enough. I also told her to quit bugging me about christmas, and that I wasn't rich, so to come up with a reasonable gift that she would like and not to text me anymore, to send emails, lol. She only wants three things, but of course they are all high dollar things. I told her ONE! is all you get. So, I glad I got that off my chest.
Oh yea, I had two pieces of white toast this morning. I am out of wheat- hence the food trip to walmart.
Ok, so I am out of here...... thrift shop open in 20mins. and I have to go to the bank first. HAVE A GREAT DAY EVERYONE!!!!!

Well, yesterday went good. Got allot done, not as much as I wanted, but oh well. Anyway, I didn't eat enough yesterday, and I am mad about that. Plus, I didn't exercise either. I know all this is cause I was so busy. But, I know better. So, today will be a high calorie day for me. The daughter is coming today, and she is constantly eating, so it shouldn't be to hard for me to eat right along with her, lol. Plus, I want to get in two exercise tapes today. I feel the need after taking yesterday off.
I got most of my room done. The only thing left, is I would like to get some bins to put under one of the shelf unit thing and I need to put hooks up for belts, and then the big project of moving my jewelry in there. I think I will put the jewelry on the wall behind the door. Then the old closet, will be converted into a storage closet for blankets and what knots and bonus, the hubby can even have my dresser now, since I got all my cloths in the new room. Anyway, I took some pics last night. I will try to post them later so you can all see what it is I have been talking about. It's nothing fancy and most of the stuff I just picked up here and there. The only thing I bought for the new closet was the shelves. But, it turned out really nice. And you all will die when you see all the #%@&! that I have. lol, I kind of have a thing about cloths and jewelry.
Ok, so plan for the day, eat and exercise, and be flipping healthy about it. No ice cream or any kind of #%@&! like that. So, we will see if I pull it off or not.
Will update after weigh in, even though I have been up for a couple of hours now. I think I will still see what it says.

Yesterday, was not the greatest, I didn't even finish filling out my plate. I didn't go over in calories but they were high for the day.
I was really bummed out about the website being down all day. I got on in the morning early then came back to post my weight and couldn't get on here the rest of the day. I tell ya, I was in a bad mood all day, thinking I had lost all of my friends on here. Just so everyone knows, if this site is down I will be over on the livestrong website. I don't like that one as much, but better then nothing. And of course anyone can email me at cportwine @ yahoo.com anytime.
Ok, now I feel better knowing that if for whatever reason, if this site would go down and never come back that people can still stay in contact with me.
Well food for yesterday-
two whole wheat tortilla soft shells
red beans and rice
tomatoes, lettuce
meatloaf- not tons, just a normal serving
diet chips, pretzel, mixed nuts, cheese dip, bean dip
fat free ice cream
buttermilk biscuit, a couple of baked fries, and a few bite of chicken and sauce.
Yep, it was a big snacking day for me. I also, have been having a few problems yesterday and still today, with being constipated. Yea, I know TMI. But, I am going to eat some flaxseed this morning and hopefully take care of that little problem.
So goals for today, to try and behave and not eat meat. I have some fish in the refrigerator, that needs to be ate. Plus, I have to make a dessert for the football banquet tonight. So, it will be a challenge to stay out of all that.
Exercise yesterday, was one 45 min aerobics tape and then since I am having a few bathroom issues, I decided to walk. So, I did 2miles on the treadmill. Then just watched tv the rest of the night. So, for today, I am going to get in a tape this morning and if there is time later on, I will do another one. Not sure if I can get two in, busy day. The packers play the bears at noon, then we go to the football thing. So, not sure.
Weigh in yesterday was 123lbs. yeah! I have a feeling it won't be so good this morning.
well, thats all I know, so I will update again later...

It would be really disappointing to lose CPH. And the set up at Livestrong just isn't as user friendly. It's so much easier here to share each other's diaries and offer support. I think it helps hugely in keeping us motivated. For some reason going to a new place with unfamiliar names just doesn't seem the same. But if CPH does disappear it would be nice if the majority of us were on the same forum.

Yeah, I spent most of yesterday trying to add people from here that are over there on that forum. But, the group that is set up for us, is messed up and not very easy to use. I been in some of the other groups and theirs works fine. So, I don't know, it's just not easy to use.
There are some nice people on there, just some many of them. I don't know how you could get to know any of them with it that way.
Anyway, back to today. I just got done working out. I did a 70 min. tape. If felt good to exercise in the morning. I just don't get it, I sweated like a pig. Most of the time I can get through a workout with just stating to sweat at the end. But, other times like today I sweat like a crazy person. So, I am wondering why that is. Is it what I eat the day before or how much I have been exercising on the days before hand, or what. I might have to post in the exercise part to see if someone knows, cause it is bugging me.
Not sure if I will eat breakfast today. I was really hungry before working out, and now I am not. So, I may save my calories for a nice dinner. I was kind of thinking about making chili. It's snowing here and that sounds really good right now. I would of course make some for myself with turkey in it.
I also have to make cookies, and we all know how I am about cookies. So, I am sure I will have some of those. So, yep, better save some calories up.
Weigh in was 123lbs. I am thinking my high calorie day will show on the scales tomorrow. So, I won't like that, but it is what it is....

Ok, I don't have allot of time this morning. I was busy doing paperwork all morning. But, yesterday was ok. Went to the football thing and there was nothing there that was healthy to eat at all. So, I had four meatballs, some macaroni stuff, and chips with taco dip. I didn't have any of the chili I made except for tasting it while cooking it and I had four cookies  yes, four of them.
Exercise was good, I did a 70 min tape in the morning then did a 45 min tape last night.
Ok goals for today are to get in some exercise, cause I need to work on my fish tanks tonight. So, I am going for a long tape today and call it good enough. Also, want to stay away from red meats today. I have been slacking on that lately. So, that's the plan.
Weigh in was 126lbs- I expected this, from eating bad on sat. But, oh well, it will be back down tomorrow. Seems to be a pattern lately. Good news, I am getting some muscles. I notice in the shower yesterday, that my arm muscles are showing really nice right now. So, I was happy about that. Maybe that will encourage me to do some weights.
Well, that's it for now....will update later....

Ok, well today is not going so well. I was doing fine and getting stuff done. Then I decided to workout while the boys played. My stupid tv in the kitchen won't work, so after an hour of dinking around with it, I gave up and YEP! I started eating. Isn't that the stupidest reason to eat. I'm pi.ssed cause my tv won't work, so I eat.
Anyway, I had some diet chips, with cheese dip and bean dip, then I had a cookie, then I ate a bowl of chili, then another cookie. Plus I had two pieces of whole wheat toast this morning. So, being mad at myself, I go an enter in my calories to see where I am at for the day. Yea, those cookies, 190 calories each . I couldn't believe it. Man, I won't be eating anymore of those. I guess it could be worse, but I didn't expect that. I don't know what I expected, I mean it is a cookie.
So, Now I am sucking down tea, trying to talk myself into doing something and not worry about the retarded tv. I will just have to use the small one out of the camper until I come up with something else. It really was ticking me off yesterday when I was trying to watch the packers play. I had to make cookies, so I was forced to watch them on the #%@&! tv in the kitchen. You wouldn't think something so stupid could get my goat so bad. I might have to b.itch smack one of my daycare parents who hasn't paid me either. (everyone else paid on friday, except for her) If she would pay me, then I could go and get a tv for the fricking kitchen....god I am so flipping ticked off today.....
Ok, I am done b.itching now, I will check back when I get in a better mood...

lol you're cute when you're cross.
Cookies & stuff suprise me too sometimes, I HAD to have a chocolate hit the other day, so i went to the counter with a picnic bar but fortunantly i read the label just before i forked out the cash 580 FRICKIN CALORIES! I immediately swapped it for a freddo frog at 60cal. *phew*
Im glad im not the only one who needs kitchen entertainment (i keep my laptop in there, dangerous i know)
Lets see, can you manage to get a foot rub out of any small children? That would cheer me up.

Ok, yesterday was a stupid day. I was just looking for excuses to eat. I ended up eating even more later in the day, then I went and did one of my tapes. I really need to get more focused.
Good News, I placed an add for a tv on the local selling board and someone has one for $30. Yea! and figures cause the stupid packers are playing on monday night this next week. So, I won't be cooking in the kitchen during the game. Anyway, I glad that is all settled. I don't know why stupid things p.iss me off so much. I guess, the whole deal is that I had a nice tv in there and my son stoled it for his room, leaving me with the #%@&! one. So, it really was ticking me off when it wouldn't work, during the game sunday. I missed half of the game just messing with the tv. Then I went through the whole thing again yesterday when I went to work out. So, yea I was pi.ssy to say the least.
But, today is a new day and I did get allot done before the little tv incident. I have also managed to get a few of my fish tanks back up to par. I really need to make more time for them or get rid of them. I am pretty sure I only have one kid today after the school agers leave, so I think I will take her downstairs with me and finish up the tanks today. I only have four left to do and one is just a little 10gal. I will take some pics for you guys sometime. I have my big elliptical right in the middle of them all, lol.
Anyway, weigh in this morning was horrible. 127lbs. Haven't been that in a long time. I guess that's what I get for all my bad eating lately. I am just thinking that it will only get worse, since I was so bad yesterday. So, time to get my head out of my butt and do better. I been in this cycle of eating way under calories one day and then going totally over the next. It is not working! and I need to quit doing that.
Exercise, has been good, but I think from now on I will only do one tape a day, unless I can get a tape done in the morning hours. Its to hard to get two in at night and I am sick of my house being a pit.
Ok, well that's it..... fingers are crossed right now..hoping for a good day....

Ok, got the new tv, and it's up on my refrigerator, looking great and working great!
So, life is good. I have been sort of good today, and sort of bad. I can't quit eating those stupid cookies. I hope my son finishes them off tonight.
Besides that I had a piece of whole wheat toast, a bowl of cereal, some cod and broccoli. So, at least all of that was good stuff.
I am also getting a ton of things done. Got the basement stuff pretty much cleaned up while I was waiting for the fish tanks to fill. Our basement is like a big catch all for everything we don't know what to do with. Plus, it's cobweb city down there. So, got it spiffy up, now I am off to do dishes. Hope I can stay away from the cookies the rest of the day.

thanks for posting in my journal. It feels good when someone responds to what you write. I have to admit I need to respond more to others as well.cookies are so hard to resist! My daughter does the baking at a little bakery/cafe in brattleboro and sometimes brings home cookies that have flopped and boy do I love them! I can't say I do a very good job of resisting! Especialy when she brings home a maple cream or ginger cream. We have nick named them "oh my god"coockies! The filling is whipped butter,powderd milk,and maple syrup. ,d the ginger ones have lemone zest in the filling pof a ginger snap. My mouth is watering just thinking about them

haha, i bought these organic ginger snaps from trader joe's and they were SO addictive. My blue-eyed Jew consort was over here and he said
GOD I CAN'T GO IN THE KITCHEN WITHOUT EATING ONE OF THEM!
We polished off the entire package in like 2 days. More like 1.5 days. Sheesh!
Cookies are GOOD!

Ok, I am really mad at myself today. I didn't exercise last night. I stated to and then just stopped and I haven't been eating very well either. So, I don't know what going on with me these days. I am just not happy about anything right now. I am almost wondering if it is getting close to that time of month or something. That would definitely explain why I am in such a weird mood.
I have been trying really hard to get stuff done around the house. You know, things that you put off for another time. And I have been doing that, but then I don't focus on my diet and exercise, so then that makes me mad. It's almost like I can't find a happy balance. Either let everything go, and do the diet and exercise, or get stuff done and be productive. I don't know why I make things so hard. Maybe if I make up some sort of schedule or something. I hate schedules, but I need to do something, cause this is not working for me.
Ok, so goals for today, to make up a schedule and try to stick to it. Also, I need to plan more of my foods out, so I am not eating stuff I shouldn't be. Exercise, needs to happen today, also. So, that's the plan....
weigh in was 127 again.... 
I had two pieces of whole wheat toast this morning...

Ok, I am feeling much better now. I went into excel and did a worksheet scheduling out everything, except food. I think the food I will do on a daily or weekly basis. But, anyway, I made a daily schedule, a cleaning schedule, and even set up reminders. So, as much as I hate schedules, I am going to force myself to do this for at least one month and see if it works out or not. I just feel at the end of each day, that I am not accomplishing anything. At least now, if I feel that way I can look back and see what I have done.
Ok, so starting this thing right now. Which means I need to get off of this thing and get busy.
So, I will let you know how it all goes...

Hey Cindy:
I wish you much success with your new schedule. Sometimes when we get in a weird rut or a weird mindset, we just have to take action and do something. Writing stuff down often helps because then it's there, memorialized and visible. I am glad it made you feel better to write a schedule, that's awesome!
And I KNOW 127 is not a number you like, but I would KILL to be 127. You could be 149 like me over here!

Ok, only a few minutes then I have to exercise. Yes, the schedule is a good thing. I just hope I can stick to it.
I also, just got done planning a menu for the rest of this week and next week. I liked doing that. No more guessing, I can get what I need ahead of time and hopefully no more throwing away left overs. Plus, it really help as far as making better choices. No more random eating. It will be hard for me to stick to this schedule cause somedays I just really don't want certain things and want other things. So, we will see how it goes...
Anyway, got to go......Richard is calling my name, lol.

Well, the schedule is going as planned, but I might have to tweak it a bit. There is no flipping way I can do lunch, then diapers, pick-up and dishes in all before nap. So, I moved the dishes to 3pm. Either that or I will have to do it in the early morning, while getting breakfast for the kids.
Anyway, so far I have had two pieces of whole wheat toast, pretzels with bean dip, Then I made turkey sausage gravy on toast for lunch, I had a few bake french fries and some peas. I am stuffed, so I think I might skip snack and just have a light supper.
Ok, off to enter in my plate and then we are going to pick up and do nap, so I can workout.
Will update again later...

I got a little of track this afternoon. Instead of having nap time, which is when I was going to workout, we went for a walk and got some gummy worms. It was nice to get out of this house for awhile. I am going to force myself to get out more often. Nothing like fresh air to put you in a good mood.
After lunch, I was stuffed and didn't feel like a snack. I didn't eat again until about 6pm. So, I know I was full. Anyway, then I had a pudding snack and went off to exercise. Did an hour tape. It was a new one, so I worked up a sweat just trying to figure it all out, lol.
Then after that I ate my supper, kind of late for supper, but what the heck. I had the same thing as lunch. I had turkey sausage gravy on toast and peas. Then I had another pudding snack.
I feel like I ate to much today, but my calorie log looks good, so I am not sure. I guess I will find out from the scale in a few days. I think the hole key to quiting this bad snacking, cookie thing, is to eat a good meal every night. Then I will be to full to eat a bunch of stuff that isn't healthy for me. So, that's the plan anyway.
I really like the schedule thing. It worked out great today. I am not so sure about the food part. I didn't follow it to the letter, but I did pretty good. So, if anything I will keep doing it, just to have an idea of what to eat.
Oh yea, Does anybody know how many calories white flour is. Just plain old white flour. I looked it up and there are so many different ones. I don't even know what kind I have cause I keep it in Tupperware so the bag is long gone. Some of the totals I thought seem out of this world. But, even with the high one, I should be ok for the day. I was just curious, if anyone knows more about it.
Ok, so that's all I know for now. I am off to bed early tonight in hopes of having another productive day tomorrow.

The wheat flour I have is 110 calories for 1/4 cup. I believe that white flour is pretty comparable calorie-wise.
Mmm...cookies. The family brought in those Little Debbie Christmas cakes, and I ate quite a few too many.

I think I claimed like around 300cals. for it. But, I know I didn't use more than a half cup to make the entire thing. Plus, I didn't eat the entire thing. So, I over shot that a little. Oh well, makes up for the two gummy worms I forgot to enter, lol.
Today, my weight was back down, thank god! 124lbs this morning. If I can manage to be good today, then I can have a good weigh in for the challenge tomorrow.
Well, I don't really have anything else, since I posted last night. Oh yea, I had a bad dream last night and was up for an hour in the night. lol I came on here, and read some of the post but didn't post anything. I had to do something to get my mind of the stupid dream so I could get back to sleep. I went to bed early to get more sleep, lol, so much for that plan.
ok, that's it for now..... will update later...

Ok, that wasn't nice about me telling I had a bad dream and then not telling what it was about. It was weird (most dreams are), lol. It wasn't really bad, just like what I was feeling about myself.
I think straylight's earthquake thing might of added to it, and also the daycare parent that hasn't paid me yet.
Ok, well, I was driving a bus, (yea, right, like I know how to drive a bus), I had all the kids with me going to the clinic, in another town (strange the clinic moved to a different town). Anyway, it was a gravel road and I was going really fast. So, then we come upon this place in the road that had a bunch of cats and kittens. I hit one, not on purpose, couldn't slow down. We keep going, and then there is more animals, all kinds, and they all had babies. So, I went real slow, honking and they were moving off the road. There was even little babies bluebirds in the cracks of the road, lol. Then we get to the end of the road and it was a big field, with a house on the hill. So, I get out and walk up the hill. There is a lady there, who gets quite p.issy with me about being there. And this is where straylight comes into it. There was water surrounding everything on the other side of her house. Like an ocean, and you could feel the wave going nuts, moving the earth. It was like I had upset the whole place by driving down that road. I explained that the directions I had brought me there. Then my dream switch to the clinic. I was there talking to the daycare parent, telling her about the animals in the road and then it dawns on me, that the daycare kids were still there in the bus. (how that could happen, I don't know cause I had to of drove something to get to the clinic) So, then I am going frantic, trying to figure out how to get out of the clinic and get to the kids. Then I woke up. lol, weird huh?
So, up at almost 2 in the morning, going over this stupid dream, trying to figure it all out. Got back to bed around 3 or so, then hubby's alarm went off a little after 4, and then mine after that around 5 something. So yea, not allot of sleep there.
Ok, now on another note. I wanted to show you all my room. It's my sons old room that is small and I made a closet out of it. I didn't do nothing fancy, and did it as cheap as possible. So, here are the pictures. I just went around the room in a circle taking them. Please don't make any comments on how many cloths I have. I have heard it enough from my family.
This is coming into the room, the right side.
This is the middle of the back wall.
This is the other side of the room, the left side.
This is the wall that is by the door.
And of course this is the door, leading back into the hall.
I still have a few things left to do, but it is pretty done at this point.
Anyway, I am off schedule now, so I have to get off this computer...

Wow! So organized...it looks like a store!
And no...that wasn't a reference to the quantity, but rather the quality of how they are folded, like those jeans. Perhaps I should shop at Lady Cindy's Duds...
Of course, I don't know if you would have anything in my size...
P.S. - I like that candle, too.

LOL, that is exactly what my son said! I actually gave that some thought after he said it, lol.
The candle is cool. I got it and the curtains, plus many of the cloths at our local thrift shop. It just kills me how people get rid of nice stuff. It's a shame. I have a whole box of candles that I got up there, most of them are still in the wrapper. what is wrong with people....lol

Well, I'm finally sitting down for a break. Geeez, I have been running my butt off all morning, trying to stay with the new schedule. I had on there for chores today, to clean the refrigerator. Wow, that took allot longer then I thought. But, hey it looks brand new now.
Anyway, I am at about 1000 calories so far for the day. I have even been measuring my food out. First time for that. I usually just guess. I can't believe how much a cup of mac and cheese is. Holly #%@&!, that's allot.
So, I had cheerios with fat free milk for breakfast, then I had mixed nuts for snack, then I had mac and cheese with tuna, and fruit cocktail for lunch. I was suppose to have a veggie. But, I didn't want to open another can of food (being lazy) and the fruit was already out for the kids. So, I had that instead.
I haven't exercise yet. I have a few kids leaving here soon, and then I will only have two. So, I decided to wait for nap time today. Then I am going to walk on the treadmill tonight.
So, that's it for now....

| Good job on getting in the chores and cleaning out the fridge! Schedules are a good thing! The room looks nice too, but I'm having a hard time refraining from mentioning anything about the quantity. ... I really am tempted to tease you about them! Seriously, I could see myself ending up with a lot of clothes if I had the money and the space to store them. It's one of my weaknesses too. At least we don't have to worry about you going naked any time soon. (aaahhh, don't be mad, I couldn't help myself! My husband brings out the orneryness in me!)

Yea, it nice not having to struggle to find stuff any more. I can't believe I had all that in my small closet, lol.
To be honest allot of that stuff don't fit, and I am trying to weed it out as I go. But, I have issues with getting rid of old cloths. I guess I get attach to certain things.
Anyway.... the rest of last night went well. I was going to walk, but didn't. I would be mad at myself for that. But, I ended up spending the night watching a movie with my husband. So, can't really be mad about that, since he hardly ever does that with me.
Food for the rest of the day was not planned either and I end up having some ham and mac and cheese. Yea, thanks! whoever was talking about homemade mac and cheese in straylights diary. Cause you know after I read that, then I had to make some. I didn't eat tons, just a bite here and a bite there. The part that was really bad. The ham, I had a brown sugar glaze on it. Yum! Addicting stuff.
I don't if I said or not. I did workout for 45 mins in the afternoon and then had a good snack. pretzels and a pudding snack. So, that part went well.
If I didn't have to make supper for the family, I think I would of done good yesterday.
Well, that's it for now. I will update again after weigh in....let's hope it goes ok. I not up for a bad weigh in today. I should just skip it today and save myself the grief of it all.
Yep, I should of skipped it. I guess the sausage gravy and toast got the best of me. I knew I was eating to much.
weigh in this morning. 128lbs
My calories have been on, but I can tell I have been eating to much. So, time to get back to square one and start over. Maybe I shouldn't even add my calories up. It seems I was doing better before I started doing that. I know when I have had enough, so why I have been doing that stupid plate is beyond me. Just looking for excuses to eat more. Well, I ate more and see what happens..... So, ticked off.
Looks like it will be a low calorie day for me...

I am really struggling today and it's still morning. ugh! I had my two pieces of toast, but I am doing battle with the cookies. I put them in the pantry- you know out of site out of mind. But, I still keep thinking about them. ugh!
I also need to make up my mind on an exercise bike. I found one and I like it, the problem is I can't get a hold of the guy. I keep emailing him with no response. What is it with people? If you want to sell something then respond. So, now I have another lady that is selling one and wants me to come today. I really would like to see if this other pans out first. The one the lady has, I am not even sure what kind it is or anything. The one the guy has is exactly what I want. So, what to do.....what to do.....
I think I will just tell the lady that I can't make it today that something has come up and see if the other one gets in contact with me.
Ok, then to make matters worse, I am not sticking to the schedule as planned. I really, really want to, but can't seem to get off my butt today. ugh! What is my problem....
So, there you go.....me being stupid as usual......

ya know Cindy, i had to stop eating taost in the morning. It only seemed to make me hungrier. for pretty much the same cals Ihave 2 scrambled eggs (or 1 egg + 3 or 4 whites if i am at home) and I last a lot longer before getting hungry.
And I am sooooooo jealous of that closet... It could be a new career for you, going around taking care of people's closets.

Hey loooove your closet, it is so organized! I like how you organized by color.
You know I was laughing reading about the cookies. I made some yesterday and I ate like 8 of them.  We for sure need a cookie support group or therapist or something. Lol
