Hello Everyone!

      Here we are on day #2 of this healthier life and I am already having cravings. I feel like most people jump in head first and are super motivated. This mama is NOT feeling that way! LOL! I am craving a crispy chicken sandwich and ice cream... UGH! I will get past it, I know. TV commercials are the devil and my kids make it so much harder... I want a rice crispy treat. I want toast with butter or a baked potato with my dinner. Willpower, willpower, willpower! That is what I am trying to remind myself. I do not want to force everyone in our house to make the same choices as I am. I need to lose weight, not anybody else. Eating healthy is one thing, but eating less of many products in hopes to lose is another.

       So yesterday morning I started off with a glass of water with lemon. And as much as I would like to say that I will continue to do that every single day, I cannot promise that because once vacation is over and I am back at work then that may change. Also, I made a breakfast taco. Which I would like to remind those hardcore dieters out there that I am NOT following a regimen of any kind. So please do not pass judgment. I am only making healthier choices. I use sausage with 2 eggs and topped it with a tad bit of cheese. However, I did not use a regular tortilla, I used a spinach tortilla, and it was GROSS! I do not recommend them at all! I would rather not use any at all then buy another pack of them.

      Lunch and dinner yesterday were great though. I had a salad for lunch and sausage for dinner. With greens and another salad. I worried about food going bad when I did my big grocery shop, but now I worry about running out of food before I am able to go to the store again. It is damn expensive to eat healthily. Which is probably why half of the world is fat or obese. I do have a goal to not waste any of it. I bought it and I will use it. That alone is keeping me from binging because I have spent so much on this healthy food that I cannot afford to go and splurge on crap LOL! If anyone tried to tell you that it is a choice and you cant eat healthy cheap, their lying to you. Now you can do it on a budget. You can make it work, but it is not cheap.

     Okay, I weighed and measured myself to see where I am at. As I said yesterday, I am 192 lbs. (of beauty, my husband says <3) and no that did not change overnight, but I will not be checking the scale regularly. I have lost that battle many a times before and again I refuse to put myself through any suffering this time around. So I am 45 inches around at the waist and bust. Trust me when I say that I am quite shocked that those numbers are the same. I am 17 inches around in the arms and 29 for the thighs. Let's see if those numbers change over time. If ya'll want to leave any comments below about how you are doing or if your bold enough, your measurements even. NO JUDGEMENT is passed through this blog, I can assure you. Okay ladies, over and out.
