An Epiphany....

O.K. maybe not an epiphany, but still....

The last few days have been a little stressful, but I really think that not only is my body chaning, but my mind as well. I used to get soooo discouraged when I was 'dieting' and would slip off the wagon a little bit. I would think to myself 'oh well, you messed up, it's over...'

Today, I went to lunch with my mom who refused to eat anywhere other than our favorite resteraunt. This resteraunt happens to be a Mexican resteraunt with the BEST chips, salsa, and white dip around! *seriously amazing!* I started getting so scared about falling off the wagon. Instead, I ordered a small side salad, and only had one helping of the chips and dip! I felt accomplished, yet still bad about it being processed food. I then realized that this is going to be a life change and that kind of food is all around. I have to get used to it someday! A little cheating here and there is only going to help on this life long journey..

I also worked out more today than I have in the past couple of weeks. I uped my cardio, as well as broke out an old DVD I used to do with friends back in the day for a work out. It was fun, but kicked my a$$! I then realized how out of shape I had really let myself get! Jeeeeez! lol. Oh well, it is a process yet again....
