Well, I hit my first snag this morning. I am not 100% sure what happened, but I looked at my alarm and it was 5am! I would have tried to make it to the gym still, but I have plans for this afternoon, so I will have to go to the gym after that. I can’t skip because I don’t want to make it a habit.

I am not overly upset about missing the gym this morning, so long as I get my workout in tonight. I worry that I will get carried away with other things and come up with some excuse to not go. No matter what happens, I am committing right now to make it to the gym and get my scheduled workout in.

Other than my speed bump this morning, things have been going pretty good. I made a delicious dinner last night and resisted the urge to go back for more! That is so huge for me because I could have eaten my weight in dinner last night! I do need to watch out with some of the dessert candy that I am eating. Andrew and I got more chocolate than we could eat for Christmas and it is currently in a drawer in the kitchen. I am pretty good at not eating it until I get a little craving for dessert. I don’t pig out but I will have 2-3 truffles, which just adds to my calorie count.

Aside from that issue, I didn’t snack again yesterday when I got home, not even mixed nuts. I got right to making dinner and it was pretty nice to have that distraction from food. The reason I snack is not because I am hungry but because I am bored. When I don’t have anything to do but watch TV I typically will just rummage through the refrigerator or cupboards to see what might be available.

I didn’t drink as much water as I wanted to yesterday, but I didn’t get two huge cups at water. I probably could have gone for another one, but I got busy with something and didn’t really think about going down to get it.

Since I didn’t get my workout in this morning, there isn’t too much left to talk about L. I will give a full update on how it all went down tomorrow!
