    Yesterday was crazy emotional! I started hrt a couple weeks ago, and my GOSH, this pms this time, holy waterfalls! It was crazy! Was crazy? IS crazy. Anyway. I got The Case Against Sugar from the library and started reading, and was horrified. BY MY MIND. Like, It's okay if you binge today, it's shark week. AND I TEMPORARILY NUZZLED RIGHT INTO THAT. That type of behavior has gotten me stalled for three months, yo. I even told Bob, we should get McDonald's. Then Was like, no....there's plenty of things I can binge on right here if I want. Then I started thinking about cereal. Fully loaded cereal, or baking cookies. I was like, WTF is YOUR PROBLEM!!!!!!! AND I WAS READING THE CASE AGAINST SUGAR. Do I want to get diabetes? PCOS? Etc. Etc? Insulin resistance? Alzheimer's? Mama passed last year from it!!!

    So, I made a good choice and took my silly butt to bed. But it was touch and go. Like my friend Baconslave had said to me before, I worked out my good decision making muscle. And I felt good about that.

    Today is a great day.

    And I just heard the garbage truck and we forgot to take the trash out....we suck at being adults. :)

    Yay Lori!
    Yup! Flex dem Resistance Muscles.
    The more you take the opportunity to work them, the stronger they are next time. :wink:

    Next week's thread is up!

    Thank you! You're the best you know.

    And I was shocked to see week two up already!!!!!
    This week went by really fast, didn't it?

    It did. It was a great first week back in the saddle though.

    3/7: All stats in check. Got a morning cardio workout in. Did some housecleaning. Took collagen.

    So for week one-
    Maintain my weight -/+ 5 lb :)
    Carbs below 50 net :)
    Outdoor walking or jogging at least once a week :) counting taking Jaclyn to the park
    Finishing up Chalean Extreme :) In progress...I got one workout done. Behind due to illness.
    Collagen for joints/skin :)
    Spring clean-up of the house :) progress made in spite of illness.

    Bonus goal: trying for 1-2 morning workouts a week if possible. Not a morning person but I had some success last month. :) Got one!

    I'm in for this too (even though this entry is past the first week). My goal is to continue the progress I made in the first 30 days on my current ketogenic eating plan. Since starting on 2/3 through 3/5 I've lost 15 lbs. I'd really like to lose 12 lbs in March.
    goal - drop 12 lbs
    carbs - keep net carbs under 20, total carbs under 35
    protein - stop completely blowing my cap (too much protein, not enough fat)
