Day 7

You could call today cheat day.

Jenny and I went for a walk then out for something to eat. I had sunny side up eggs with bacon over jalapeño grits. Sooooo freaking good. Then we had ice cream since there was a marble stone creamery two doors down. I got a small without the waffle bowl. Normally that would've been a large waffle bowl and I would've had pancakes or waffles for brunch. I wasn't any less satisfied with the smaller size.

After that, I made wine slushies since Ashley and Chris came over. We spent this 100 degree day in the pool. It was great to relax and float around. We grazed on some cheese, crackers, and chocolate.  My win here being that I didn't just sit by the food and stuff myself silly. I enjoyed the people instead :)

When my guests left, I hit the couch with Molly. I got hungry so I snacked on more cheese, crackers, and chocolate since it was sitting out on the counter. What I really should've did was eat an actual dinner instead of being lazy. That wasn't a great choice. I put it all away and now I'm drinking another big nalgene of water.

I could tell I was getting sleepy (darn carbs) so I took Molly for an evening walk. It was good to move about, but I could tell I was dead tired.

I can't believe I'm one week down. I feel like I've made small improvements and I don't feel miserable or crazy or about to fall off the wagon. Actually, I feel pretty good about myself for making better choices. I was able to put $15 in my workout jar this week from various good habits. I feel ready for the next step. I know more changes are coming this week and I'm happy to take them on!
