Feeling on the edge but almost there

I feel like i'm almost there... almost; that is on my way to getting somehwere. I feel like I can begin to stick to a plan.. but at the same time old bad habits keep pulling me up and i feel as though i'll be in this place forever. I'm waiting on the book 'Skinny Bitch' which seems like a good long term approach to eating and health! I've been having less coffee.. only that's caused me to reach for more chocolate in reverse. It seems they go hand in hand in more ways than one!!! Today I'm giving up unhealthy sugars.. that means when I reach for sugary things i'll try and go for the natural versions. I've been gradually giving up my coffee and opting for a herbal tea instead and this has, to my surprise, been helpful - and at work i'm getting a boost juice, with an energizer supplement added to it. This way I can still get that pick up I need before I teach. I'll admit I am a bit lonesome today because I'm on holidays, my friend who I had a plan to hang with is always late and unreliable..  Anyway.. that's my new kick off goal for today and here's hoping this site can keep me a bit accountable. I really need that.
