A success! ..... I think.....

So I feel good today. I've had a lot more energy than usual, though I think that may be because I'm officially done being sick. (YES)

I did a pretty good job with my food today. The only thing I'm worried about is that I don't know if I ate enough.

Throughout the course of the day I consumed 2 rice cakes, 2 Tbsp of peanut butter (total.... that's a big change for me), 2 corn tortillas and probably 2oz of mozzarella cheese. I also had a small glass of chocolate milk and lots and lots of water!

So you can see my dilemma. Am I eating enough? I don't know. We'll see.

All in all I feel pretty good. I successfully cleared out all my cabinets and my fridge. I have virtually NO bad food, except a box of Pop Tarts and some unopened chips that I couldn't stand the idea of throwing away. But let me tell you, I can envision the pounds falling off my body every time I walk into the kitchen without reaching for those chips!!

I also woke up this morning with an overwhelming need to accomplish something. In the last few months, I've done very little for myself, my home, my husband. I've been bored, I've been bitchy, I've been messy. I've been A mess. But today I woke up feeling ready, truly ready, for this change. I've been feeling it coming on for a while, I just didn't want the responsibility of taking care of myself. I don't know why.

I've always wanted to be a "clean" person. An organized person. I'm not fooling anybody; I'm never going to be someone with all of my underwear neatly folded and stacked in my drawer, and I'm always going to have the wrong CDs in the wrong cases. But I am, someday, going to have a clean house on a daily basis. I won't have clutter laying everywhere, shoes that I trip over, dryer sheets strewn about the house. It's amazing how much all of those little things affect your overall mood.

So here's to me being (finally) a responsible, clean, healthy adult. :) CHEERS!

  1. I would say no. Not at all. But, what do I know. *LOL* Did you eat any fruits or veggies? If you can't bring yourself to eat them then try making your own smoothies. You can even sneak fresh spinach in there and not taste it. =)

  2. you did good! i'm just listening to my body mostly. if i feel hungry, i drink some water wait a few minutes and if i still feel hungry i grab some grapes or something.

    Keep it up girl!

    I deep cleaned my house to keep from eating bad things(you already know this...since we were on the phone while we were cleaning). but if i keep doing that i'll have the cleanest house on the block
