    Sigh. I did an excellent job with all of my goals until today. I went to the gym and burned 300 calories and I was in good shape. I've been doing my squat challenge and am 15 miles in for my 100 miles in January challenge. But tonight I binged and I don't even know why.. It's not like I've been depriving myself of anything and I am quite enjoying my healthy food. But roommate brought home a pizza and now I would have to burn another 700 calories to be flat for the day.. I am sitting here debating between going back to the gym even though I'm EXHAUSTED, calling today a bad day and cutting extra tomorrow to make up for it, calling it a really bad day and eating chocolate, or just simply moving on and doing better tomorrow. That's what I should do, but I feel so guilty. Sigh.

    My sister was making banana nut bread and asked if I wanted any. I said yes but don't give me any because I'll eat it :-) It's so hard!

    What kind of good stuff are you learning in nutrition class?

    Remember a few years back we lost 30+lbs... we need to find those people...LOL :-) I know I was still working part-time after I finished my master's degree. I spent more time at the Y, single, less responsibilities, my daughter and I were living with my parents. Now I'm working full-time, own a home, remarried, more stress, mother of a teen (lol). I guess I could start by finding more time and being less stressed ;-)
