Into the Second Week

Sorry I haven't updated...

I lost four pounds last week!

Hopefully this week I can lose a couple, but it's midterm week and stress is extra high. Maybe it would be a good time to work on not eating when I'm stressed.

This week I think I'm going to work on quitting soda. I drink diet, but I think it makes me crave sweets. And I'm sure my aunt can write a book on how bad aspartame is (love you Aunt Charlene!). Anyway, it's a bad habit and I need to quit it. I also need to eat at home more, which means grocery shopping, and who has time for that? I have been making good choices at the places I go to most of the time. That's why I need to eat home, though: If I go out, I'm tempted to be bad!

I also need to get to the gym to start walking and jogging. I really think running is something I would enjoy if I could do it at length! So that's another goal: Go to the gym this weekend!

Here's a picture of me and the girls at my birthday party! I felt good that night, but when I saw this picture, I changed my mind! Pictures like these keep me motivated!
