Journal Entry for June 16, 2009 Mood
Tuesday, June 16, 2009

So instead of being negative or down on myself, I'm gonna write about all the good things I did today. 

 

1. Woke up positive about making this a better day.

2. Had a good breakfast, snacks, dinner and lunch.

3. Drank 3 1/2 Bottles of Water.

4. Played cards with my buddy.

5. Played with the pup.

6. Had a great day at work.

7. Bought myself fitted knee length exercise pants for my Duathlon.

8. Ran on the treadmill.

9. Going to make tomorrow another good day! - One Day At A Time!!

 

I am having a better day today.  I haven't had much time to get on, can't get on at work and my evenings have been busy with house stuff, dogs, Jim and Jimmy.  I will try my best to at least post once a day, even if I have to get up a little earlier to do so.

 

I've been having a hard time controlling my eating.  That time of the month is on it's way and I'm sure that has a lot to do with it.  Wish this wouldn't happen, I have to learn to be more aware of what I'm eating and make sure I am the one to make the best choices not the little devil/hippo/cookie monster on my shoulder.

 

Over the weekend, I took Jimmy to a little trail, he rode his bike and I walked Diesel (the big puppy).  I've been spending lots of time outside and making the most out of Jimmy's summer.  He started camp on Monday and he just loves it.  Glad he was able to go.

 

Jim's birthday was Sunday so we went to breakfast with his mom.  It was nice.  Jimmy and I made cards for Jim and the one Jimmy made for him made him teary eyed.  He drew a pic of them fishing at a pond and even drew the tree that is there with the roots and all.   It was very touching.  Just love my boys!

 

Food for today:

Honey Nut Cheerios

Blueberries

2% Milk

Almond Bar

Wheat Bagel w/Turkey & Provolone

Salad w/Breaded Baked Chicken, tomatoes, avocado and light ranch

Banana and Fiber One Bar after Workout

Bottles of water - 3 1/2, 2 energy drinks

 

 

Thanks for being here for me and I'm sorry that I haven't had much time to DS and catch up.  Will try to catch up more later with everyone.  I appreciate all your friendship and I'm always thinking of you all.

    Hi Kathy. Love your positivity! Maybe I should take a lesson from you and list the good things going on in my life. Instead of focusing on the stressful junk that is bogging me down. I'm glad Jim had a good b-day! There's no gift better than one from your child. It's nice that he sees that being a big tough dad and all. Food log looks good Kathy!

    Have a great Wednesday! Love you!!!!!!

    Wow you have such a great, positive outlook. I love it! You are doing great; everything in that post sounded very healthy! I know when it is going to be that T.O.M. I crave lots of bad foods ... we just have to learn to control our emotions better, but we will get there. It just takes practice and consistency.

    Sounds like you have two great guys in your life! What a lucky woman! So glad Jimmy is enjoying camp! Hope you have a great Wednesday!
