This is post number 10. Maybe when I get to post 30 I'll change my titling system.
Today, I consumed 3,082 calories and burned 704 for a balance of 132. I went onver my goal by about 500 calories because I totally cheated. Today was National Donut Day (how stupid...) and we got a free donut at Dunkin' Donuts (Yankees suck and Dunkin' Donuts rocks! It's a Boston thing.) To get our donuts, we had to buy a drink. I got a Latte Lite - with skim milk and Splenda. It was still wicked awesome. We also got a free donut at Krispy Kreme to eat in the morning for breakfast. Frugal, huh? On the flip-side, I think I still may be a little lower in the calorie range than I should be, so I don't think it will hurt. Time will tell.
Overall, I think it went well the last few days. I just have to be disciplined. It helps if I plan ahead for my meals and snacks. If I know that I'm going to eat my salad, and only my salad, for lunch, it keeps me from going to the vending machine and buying a bag of Doritos (even though it's still tempting at times).
Those of you who read this, please pray for Brandy and I. We are struggling in a certain area and we both try to be positive but sometimes you get beat up. I want this situation to be resolved in 2 to 3 months and Brandy told me tonight that I was "optimistic" (whatever that means - j/k). But I'm determined to get there. Just pray in agreement with us - God knows the situation.
