Driving the finish line

Thank goodness this month is over! September and October were entirely too rough. I ventured up the scale in the beginning of each month and pulled through the end with a loss. The ups and downs have left me with an average of about 1/2 lb a week loss. But you [...]

Things I’ve learned

I learned so much this past week, my first experience with Core.
1) I really need to shake my breakfasts up. I’ve enjoyed the shredded wheat, plain yogurt and unsweetened oatmeal (after adding acceptably Core things to them, of course). Before this I always alternated between vanilla yogurt + granola or Special K. [...]

Tortilla withdrawal

I really am wondering if I can handle Core. I grew up with having a tortilla every day, often multiple times a day. It took me a bit to get used to the whole wheat kind but I got used to it and love them. Still, everyday. Thanks, Grandma [...]

What a week. I have not had much time to think of much other than school. I had 3 programs due this past week plus had to start on 2 group projects. I’m seriously contemplating whether I want this degree or not. Well, yes I do. I am so glad [...]

I am forcing myself to write now even though I feel completely ashamed. I had a complete emotional meltdown on Saturday night. What was supposed to be relaxing night took a downward turn and I drank myself into oblivion. My bf said he hasn’t seen me anywhere near that drunk in 4 [...]

Saturday browsing

Browsing the web for motivation time. I walked in the American Diabetes Association walk this morning and it was a bit chilly, but I’m glad I did it. I got my walking in for the day. A small workout to prepare me for boot camp tomorrow (I am dreading it).
1) Want [...]
