On the same train

Breakfast:  Yogurt, granola bar

Morning Snack: Strawberries

Lunch: Chicken salad sandwhich, cheeze-it's, 5 pretzles

Afternoon Snack: 2 clemetines

Dinner: Bowl of blackbeans, chips, salsa and one nacho

Boring day today. I worked both jobs and realized that I might be getting too old for this. In my case the hard core cash is lovely and the tiredness from working two jobs is just a side step.

Starting something new

Daily Eats


Breakfast: PB&J Sandwhich on WW toast, banana, coffee

Morning Snack: Laughing Cow Cheese wedge, saltine crackers

Lunch: Can of soup, saltine crackers, oatmeal cookie

Afternoon Snack: 2 clementines, WW tortilla with chicken salad

Dinner: Weight Watchers receipie for cheesesteak, large salad with ranch and balsamic dressing, boiled eggs, cheddar cheese.


While I could have made some better choices today in my food, I think over all it was a descent day. I should have skipped the ranch on my salad for dinner, but it just tasted sooo good! I honestly believe that by tracking my food everyday it is going to help me tremdously. We shall see. By no means will I be perfect...I mean besides food I am perfect (who am I kidding!). But if I want to live a healthy life, I have to start somewhere.

5 things I know right now......

1. I need to loose weight. I feel like I have given up on my personal goal of loosing weight when I got comfy back in a relationship. The good thing is that my significant other ("that guy") wants to eat healthier. So hopefully doing it together will empower me. Or so I hope

2. I love vacations. They make you step away for that moment in time from all reality in life. Depending on where you go, you almost feel like there is no worries, no adult decisions have to be made and your taken away from somewhere that doesn't consist of the walls of your home or work. I need more vacations. My body screams for more vacations.

3. I am not happy at my job. I dont have a career, I have a job that simply pays the bills and gives me a purpose everyday. I am kinda tired of it. I want a career, something I love going towards everyday. But, that has to start somewhere and I think I know the only person that can change it is me.

4. I am realizing that my tastes change over the years. The older I get the more simple life is for me. I no longer crave shopping without a purpose. When I was younger I use to buy something just because it was on sale so that I didn't have to walk out of the store empty handed. Now I realize that I have to have some kind of purpose to spend money. That one dollar I spent on those stupid earrings could have gone towards a mortgage on an awesome house. I'm to the age where growing up is a reality. And she delivers one hell of a bitch slap. I'm ready to make some serious life decisions. I'm ready to move forward in life. I have also realized that my path in life might not be what I originally thought it would be, and I'm starting to be okay with that.

5. I am happy. "That Guy" makes me happy. I make myself happy. I know that happiness comes from within and is something that has to start with me. I determine my happiness and I have decided that I will from this point on. And, perhaps, I shall share it all along the way with you, who ever you are!

Mucho love!
