Arrived in Atlanta last night and celebrated good grades and the end of another semester.  So that consisted of lots and lots of alcohol.  Beer, wine, liquor....you name it.  I was a one-stop shop.  Spent the day recooperating, and I would not make Santa's good list right now.  The more I think about it, though, the more I realize that this is probably a nice reality check. Yes, I definitely over-indulged, but I stayed away from Waffle House!  :) 
No, I'm not going to graze on greens and the fruits of the land 24/7. No, I'm not going to be able to work out everyday. Okay, time to accept it. This is normally the point where I get down about "slipping" and wonder what's the use in trying?  I'm never going to be able to do this or that if I don't stick to this routine to a T.  Not gonna happen this time.  Again, this is about changing my lifestyle, and that's not going to happen overnight.  It's not going to happen in a day, in a week, or even a month.  I've done well with somethings (portion control, avoiding fried foods) and others will take time to change.
Lee and I had the conversation last night about our food choices.  It's something I've been pondering for a while, about our options and the actual reality of those options.  Yes, I can buy my own groceries for the week and cook a nice dinner for myself every night.  But that's not the easiest thing to do, by far!  Nor is it the cheapest, in some cases.  Again, just things to ponder....   We will do this!!!  :)
