I've decided to start a blog. I'm taking a page from a couple different friends and starting this to keep in touch. Happy Reading!

Eating Well and the Weekend

I have been eating (mostly) properly for 2.5 days now. For anyone out there thinking of trying to change their eating ways, it is not easy. I'm better when I'm at home, but when i go out, I feel like an addict. Friday night we went to get sushi and I did really well (thanks to my dietitian, who I emailed like a nut in the middle of the day to find out what is OK to eat.) Apparently most things on a sushi menu are OK as long as you stay away from the rolls filled with cream cheese. My one "slip up" on the weekend was chicken tenders and fries at the Wings game last night. I should have ordered the grilled chicken sandwich, but I did not. I felt this pull towards the bad food. But I'll be honest, it didn't even taste that good! The fries were way to greasy and the tenders were overcooked, so I ended up eating most of the tenders and only say a handful of fries. If I wasn't in the mind set of trying to eat better, I would have eaten all that gross food anyways. Disgusting I know, but something in my head likes it - but I'm working to change that. Now I just need to work on getting myself to the gym. My dietitian and I decided that for week one I would go 1-2 times. That is completely reasonable and I intend to fulfill my obligation to myself.



Other than obsessing over what I'm putting in my mouth, I had a good weekend. Friday night we had dinner with Colin's friend and Saturday night we went to the Wings v. New Jersey Devils game in Newark. Wings won 4-1. I was actually into the game, but mostly because Colin loves the game so much.



Today I need to work on my ARP. It's the only thing standing in the way of getting my diploma. I intend to finish it by May, but I really need to get a move-on if I intend to make that date. Anyone ever had something that really did not want to do? How did you get yourself to do it anyway? I can't get out of this slump.
