New Month!
Today is the beginning of a new month, a new week and a new day. I'm starting out right! I'm within my calorie range for the day and hopefully going to lose weight. Tomorrow is going to be a low calorie day and I will see what I can do with that. I went to the store and got more bagels, so I am stocked for that at least. I was low on protein today, since I didn't have meat with dinner. I had eggplant Parmesan from a pizza place. it was good... and I was still in my calorie range. I tracked everything before I went so I knew how much leeway I had. I even have some left over for the rest of the night, but I'm just going to leave it as it is.
My mood today has been going around a bit... I went a bit hypomanic last night so I took some klonopin and made myself sleep it off. I woke up today feeling good (but not hypomanic good). I wanted to go back to sleep, but I couldn't so I just got up. I went for my walk today.. perfect timing. As I was walking down the driveway to my apartment complex it started to rain. I was wet by the time I got to my apartment, but not too bad. After I came inside it started *pouring*. Just for about a half hour. One of those random summer storms. it cleared up again and Geo and I went for our dinner date. His gout was acting up so he wasn't that talkative, but we still had fun. After 8 years together, we still can go out and talk. We went home and had bonding time- reading funny news stories and laughing. It was nice. Overall it was a good day.

I always start my day with reading your blog and it is so nice to read when your pocket is full of good news. :)
you are so positive and upbeat, it makes me feel good. I am so proud of you for august, and I know you will be successful in sept. how is the fit bit doing? I am curious, I may want one too. sorry about geo\'s gout, colleens b/f has it and it is very painful, so much about foods you should avoid. happy you had a good date and bravo on the 8 yrs. hugsss
WooHoo looks like you got your head on straight for September and weight loss. Bummer about the rain! Glad you missed getting drenched!
Thanks for all the great comments! I try and be upbeat when I can, since depression has a grip on me most of the time. I try and be an optimist, but it\'s hard sometimes.
