Better Day

Thursday, March 27th 2008

Today is starting out to be a better day than yesterday. My attitude is much better. I do not know if it was listening to Carlie Wilson on Good Morning America talk about her struggle with weight or the fact that I feel more in control, less tired.

I'm looking out my window. It snowed this morning. There are 2 Canadian Geese by the creek just walking around. It is a beautiful site to see the geese in the snow.

Sorry for that distraction...back to my positive thoughts.

I have ...

Went Way Over Calorie Target

Wednesday, March 26th 2008

I went way over my calorie target yesterday. I wish I would have exercised yesterday, it would have helped. I do well for a while, then I get tired of being good and begin to eat whatever I want. Not because I'm rewarding myself with food for being good and sticking to my calorie target, but because I just don't want to count any more. I don't want to think. I don't want to plan. I don't want to choose between eating healthy and just eating because it tastes good.

I denied myself all ...

The Hike

Friday, March 14th 2008

I went for a hike this morning. I planned on my usual walk around the neighborhood with my mother. But as we go down to the bottom of the hill, there was a gate blocking a dirt path. Beyond the gate there was a place to grab a doggie doodoo bag for your walk. I said hey, let's see where this goes.

So off we went. 5 miles later and almost 2 hours later, we arrived home. We crossed the creek several times. We saw 3 different trains. We saw lots of wild flowers, birds, and bugs. We wa...

Day 2 in San Diego

Thursday, March 13th 2008

So far, today has been a better day than yesterday. Yesterday, I spent the majority of my time doing my mom's taxes. And toward the end (the last 3 hours), she was by my side trying to understand everything and questioning everything. The taxes still aren't done, but by tomorrow they will be.

Today, we went shopping and out to lunch. I bought a new work bag and some new sandals. I also bought a new jacket. Then my mom and I went to California Pizza Kitchen. We both had the BBQ Chicke...

San Diego

Wednesday, March 12th 2008

I flew into San Diego last night. I'm here until Monday. I'm doing her taxes. Write now the fountain out front is bubbling and there is some great Mexican music playing. Just a flute and the guitars. I've already been on my walk and had my breakfast. The challenge will be to get my 10,000 steps in each day. You have to sit to do taxes, so I'll need to take some breaks here and there and go to Horton's Plaza or Fashion Place and walk (and since I'll be in the mall, I might as well do some ...
