Day 1 (again)

Okay, so today didn't go exactly as planned. I did go to Starbucks but only because I was taking Mom to the hospital for a CT and I hadn't coffee yet at home, nor did I buy my pumpkin sauce stuff yet. Then, after the CT, she was hungry and wanted to stop and have Mexican food. I really would have been okay just going home and having the salad I had planned on, but she wanted food now.  So we went to her favorite restaurant (which was conveniently right there when she said she was hungry) and I ordered their veggie quesadilla, which I only ate half of and not the whole thing, and water to drink instead of Sangria or wine.  I did eat some chips but fortunately they don't give you a huge amount and Mom ate some too, and I didn't even get guacamole with it, though I got a little container of it with my quesadilla, and even then I didn't eat all of it.

We didn't get home till 4 so that meal really counted as lunch and dinner, but around 9ish I made up the rest of the oatmeal raisin cookie dough in the freezer.  Might as well get that over with, right?  No more temptation in the freezer like that, though I do have Weight Watchers fudgesicles in there. But at least they are only 100 calories if I need something sweet.

Tomorrow we are going out with Mom's friend to an Italian restaurant, and we know that food isn't great for a diet.  But if I have salad and only eat half of whatever I order, I should be okay.  And skip the bread too. And water to drink and no dessert.

I have really got to get off my butt though and start walking. I know I should go to the gym but I feel self-conscious about it. We'll see though, I haven't ruled it out. But I know I can't just do this by diet alone.

So hello eating less.

Welcome, exercise.

Hi losing inches.

Greetings, will power.

It's going to work this time, right?
