This week isn't worth recording! Sigh...back to the 70's. Well the 60's were nice while they lasted! grrr...
-So I wrote this all up last night, and was so sure I would see 170, 171 on the scale this morning. Yes I'm only .5 from it, but I was surprisingly happy to have see 169. So long 70's never again! Unless of course it is from pregnancy.

My weakness, bad carbs! It makes me bloated, feel blah, and gain weight, so, why do I do it?! Because food is so good!!! Why does it have to be so hard?! Because FOOD IS SO GOOD! When you live to eat for so long, it is hard to change and eat to live. BUT, I can do it! I've proved it so far! I am pleased what I have done so far. It just would be nice to be in the low 60's if not 50's when I get pregnant.

Feels good to be back on track. Not easy, but I can do it!

Story shared from a friend. Who wrote it, I do not know, one of those pass along emails.
One day, a man went to visit a church. He got there early, parked his car and got out. Another car pulled up. The driver got out and said, 'I always park there, you took my place!'
The visitor went inside for Sunday school. Found an empty seat and sat down. a young lady approached him and stated 'that's my seat! You took my place!' the visitor was somewhat distressed by this rude welcome, but said nothing.
After Sunday school, the visitor went into the sanctuary and sat down. Another member walked up to him and said 'that's where I always sit! you took my place!' the visitor was even more troubled by this treatment, but still said nothing.
Later as the congregation was praying for Christ to dwell among them, the visitor stood up, and his appearance began to change. Scars became visible on his hands and his sandal feet. Someone noticed and called out 'what happen to you?' the visitor replied, as his hat became a crown of thorns, and a tear fell from his eye, 'I took your place'"

Day 3
Calories burned: ?  Steps taken: ?

I was having a great day! Did my exercise, eating well, then came evening and I WANTED pizza. Why?! Scott did NOT! I got a few things out to make instead. BUT I could not kick the desire, I just know I would eat and still WANT pizza. this was not just, mmm...pizza sounds good, oh no, I WANTED IT, and no I'm not pregnant. No, I don't regret feeding a graving, but I regret eating the yucky pizza and way to much of it! Next time I'll make a BIG yummy salad and hope it will feel me up!  sigh...oh well, I'm only human. But boy do I want to lose 6 lbs by April 1st. Fingers crossed.
My books came in. One is "detox for women" Need to read it. I'm thinking a detox is in order next week. I nice cleanse before I get pregnant.

Day 4-169.5
Calories burned: 2619 Steps taken: 11,111 :)

Just another day :)

Day 5-169.1
? didn't keep track.

and that is where my week ends because I pretty much gave up on myself. I know I don't have to wait for "Monday" to do better, or "start a diet" but sometimes I get to the end of the week and such attitude kicks in. So I sit here on Sunday night, wondering what damage I have done and what the scale will say in the morning. But, next week is a new week and I am going to do my best to eat REALLY REALLY WELL Monday-Thursday. Friday-Sunday will be St. George. Scott and Mark have a law convention.

Hello March 15-21st you will be a good week to me!!!
