New Batteries!

I put batteries in my scale... and *drum roll*

222.6!

I know it's a different scale... so I probably haven't lost 4 lbs since Monday. But I like it. So now I am going to have "official" weigh-ins. On Fridays. I know I'm a day late. But Friday seems like a good day to weigh in.

I have been doing better. Last night was a ward Thanksgiving party. I did pretty good limiting myself to one half sized slice of pumpkin pie for dessert and just a normal dinner. I have found certain foods make me over eat. I just can't stop myself from eating the entire bag of Oreo's. So I don't have any. Pretty much goes for anything sweet.

It's been kind of boring but pretty much what I've been eating every day:

Kashi Go Lean Crunch for breakfast.

Weight loss shake for lunch

Normal dinner.

Maybe a few little snacks here or there, but it's always fruits and vegetables.

I really want to do a race. I'm starting to enjoy my runs. Although it's seriously getting cold. I don't know what to do about that. There is an indoor track here I'm thinking of going to. But it's kind of far away and $10 a month isn't much, but when living on student loans it's not quite so easy. Especially when I'm already doing the babysitting at Jazzercise. So yeah we'll see about that.

I went to body sculpting this morning. I feel so tired now. I am really wondering if it's worth it to work out. Why is it better to work out than just eat less? This is something I've gone back and forth about it a lot. I have to remind myself I feel better when I work out. That's what it's all about. I enjoy it. Most of the time. But some days when I don't have much energy left it's just hard to get myself going.

But my new goal is to be 200 by Christmas. I have no idea how do-able that is. And if I don't do it, I won't give up. But I want to work towards it. I'd reeeally like to start the new year in a size 12, but I don't think that's very realistic. But I'm going to try.
