Hello strangers! Well, enough excuses.  It's time to get back on board.  Almost everyday I have started to post and then been too distracted or too embarrassed to finish it up.  No more!  I am so proud of Lee and it's time to start supporting him and myself.  I've been busy, sick and then just plain lazy, but I gotta get down to business.  I think the hardest part has been living in an environment where nothing healthy is promoted.  Seriously, all I see are commercials for fast-food and opportunities to lay myself up on the couch with nothing but a Wendy's frosty.  Yummm.  I've seriously been contemplating joining Weight-Watchers or a similar group because I honestly have no idea how to get my diet on track.  When I don't eat correctly, I have no motivation to work out because #1- I feel too gross and #2- I think what's the use.  I also have a very whacked-up view of food.  I am the first to admit I am an emotional eater.  I'll eat a healthy breakfast and then use that as an excuse to bomb out on lunch or dinner.  Being home has also put a lot of temptation in front of me, as I use my meals as a social circumstance.  Then I feel guilty for not taking advantage of the yummy (and very greasy) food available.  Or I'll wake up late, not eat until 3 or 4 and then gorge on something crappy stuff from the pantry or fridge.  The solution may be to micromanage each day.  I just don't know....lots of ideas and no real plan.  So that's where I'll start.  A plan.  Love you all and hope you had a wonderful Christmas!
Gonna let the nyquil do its thing, and i'll let you know the details of tomorrow's plan in the morning!
