Here I go again...again!

Alright, well, I don't exactly feel great about myself when I look back at where I was last summer...seeing as it's basically where I am now...which means I went UP in weight and am now coming back down some. But, nonetheless, here I go (again).

My good friend Jaime and I have decided that we need to figure out a way to keep each other accountable for our food choices and exercise discipline. We don't yet know what that will exactly look like. But, my first step is to hold myself accountable. I started to think this blog was kind of silly, because who really wants to read exactly what I eat each day. But, I think the reason it kept me on track was knowing that even though people might not WANT to read this, they COULD read it. Knowing it was out there in cyber-world for anyone to look at, helped me stay accountable as to what I was deciding to eat and if/if not to exercise.

Last night was my last bad night...we went to Cracker Barrell after church. This whole weekend I have been gearing myself up for starting Weight Watchers again today. So, I was starting the process of making well thought out decisions about what- and how much- I was eating. But, last night as I looked over the salad section of the menu, I decided that I needed one last yum-fest. So, I ate YUMMY dumplins and mashed potatoes with gravy. They were delicious!

This morning, I gave myself extra time in the morning...I should have gotten up early to run, but we're working on baby steps...haha. I packed my breakfast and lunch for today. But, more about that in my food day post which I better get started on.

I think to break up the monotenous-ness of each day's food post, I will try and post other things too. Like my list of goals and the rewards assigned to each, some yummy new recipes as I come across them as well as updates on the races I will be running next month!
