Beans

Today I had a healthy lunch, healthy tortilla snack thing, sugar free yogurt and for dinner bbq beans and green beans. (Double beans for dinner I thought was a hoot, so delish).

I'm working on my sodium intake after reading Making the Cut last night. I want to know my inner badass, too. No more than 900 mg of sodium per day. I'll try and pay attention, even though I said sodium was the one thing I couldn't give up because I'm a salt freak. AND I'm a balanced oxidizer, too! I thought it was so funny reading Leah's quiz answers because mine were all the same. We are meat, cheese and salt people. Leah said, "Yep, sometimes I just want a nacho." I totally agree. (Thus the low fat "quesadilla" thingy I had for lunch.)

I'm pissed lately because of the discrepancy between mine and Mom's scale. I am 5 pounds fatter every time I weigh at her house. So when I think I'm only three pounds away from my next goal, I find I'm actually eight. And eight seems much farther away. AND the treadmill is not as snazzy as the ones at the rec, so I really feel like I'm pounding the pavement when I run there. And it's loud. And it didn't help that uncle Danny and Dad needed to go to bed.

Today I have no excuse other than being practically unemployed and job seeking online all day - for not working out. I feel a little guilty but also a little under the weather. I just need sleep because I have been working so hard. I'm plain tired. So as Leah and I try to fall asleep tonight, we're reminiscing on our favorite yummy food. Leah recalls Jack n' the Box being her best friend and we both will forever miss ultimate cheeseburgers with curly fries. I will allow myself a glorious bowl of mac n' cheese when I reach 130 lbs. I'm sorry, I refuse to give up that goal. Then that same day I will work out very very hard :).

Mom- you and Dad are the cutest penguins ever! That makes me think of Marry Poppins.

Mop- you're sitting right next to me and know my status. (And missing Charlie)
