blah!

I almost didnt even write tonight because I dont really have anything interesting to say, but I dont want to get into the habit of not writing so here I am! :)

I did ok with the eating today. Counting calories and carbs and fat grams can be exhausting but shocking too. I mean, I didnt eat a ton today but I was shocked to find that two flour tortillas has 40 grams of carbs. Holy crap! I need to find wheat tortillas. I have a feeling I am going to have to special order them. Great. I use those for my chicken quesadillas. Then I had a half cup of yogurt, a bowl of unhealthy cereal(a bowl is good! Usually I have two or three bowls.) and a peanut butter and jelly sandwich on whole wheat bread. The sandwich kept me full for hours. Wheat rocks. I also cleaned the kitchen and then the spare room, and I mean I attacked it. I really need to start exercising more. Why is that its easy to gain weight but hard to take it off?

Surprisingly, I did not crave the nachos and cheese all day today. I dont know if its because the label terrified me to the point that it literally made me want to be violently ill at just the mere thought of that cheese, but I dont think I'll have it ever again. And if I do, it wont be for a long, long time. Also, Patrick offered again to get me some fast food and I declined. Yay me! When I decline, he then doesnt get anything for himself either, so you see it works out.(Pss, I dont think he needs to lose weight at ALL)

Im sorry this blog is so boring tonight. Hopefully tomorrow itll be better.

Yay for turning down fast food! I even have a hard time with that, especially when someone else offers to go get it. Are there any KFC's around there? When I was on ediets, the 2 fast food I was allowed to have pretty regularly was Taco Bell and KFC. Burgers and Fries joints are baaaaaad. Great job!

Great job on watching what your eating.. that is the first big step! It takes time to find things that are healthy and a replacement for all the stuff your used to eating.. but trust me, its worth it.

Dont ever worry about your blog being boring... as long as you right every day you will feel better about yourself. (At least that is what I have found)

Stay Strong.. you can do this!

Yeah, great job. I had no self-control before I had my surgery, I must admit. But yeah, carbs are bad..very bad. They have some wonderful low carb tortillas at Trader Joes, though. try em! Thanks for visiting my blog! Support is the key to successful weight loss.
