P.S.
I didn’t enjoy the pizza after my 5th or 6th piece. After that, it was just a “I’m going to win this bet!” kind of thing. :x I really need to stop doing bets that involve food…
But yes, tomorrow is a new day and I will definitely never stuff myself like that again. I want to listen to my body and stop when I am full. It’s not worth feeling like crap over.

My Problem
I realized that I have been struggling this week with eating right (even though I have so many more options than I did on my 14-day plan) because there isn’t anything to control! I don’t have to be sure to ONLY eat protein/veggies. I have more options. So, I think, “I can have more of this, less of that.” “I can skip the veggies.” “I can just eat...
This morning I had 2 eggs, wheat toast with reduced fat cream cheese. Then I went to train. We ran and worked out in the park.
She baked me cookies! She said there is “nothing bad in them”. Looks like there’s just oatmeal, raisins, chocolate chips. Pretty good.
I also had vegetable soup.
I baked cookies with my little sister. I ate 2ish and gave the rest away! Go me. :}

One year ago today, I had surgery and it changed everything. Because of it, I started having panic attacks. The fear and anxiety pushed me into counseling. Counseling led to seeing a clinical dietitian and biofeedback training. When nothing helped, I ran away to Montana. I came back, and finally started to (slowly) get my life on track. I got on Zoloft, I started fostering a pug dog, I got a job....

No Peanut Butter & Co. sandwich shop today!
What is this Peanut Butter shop you speak of? :O
Fail
I went to LongHorn Steakhouse and drowned my sorrows in a tonion. :o 1130 calories, 68 grams of fat.
But… win? First time I ate fried food in 3 weeks. Which has been hard because it’s been verrrrrrrrry stressful and fried food is usually where I turn. :o

Did I ever mention that I probably have fibromyalgia but can’t afford to see a proper doctor to diagnose me? Yah… it runs in my family, and there are periods of time when I have such intense pain that I just want to curl up in a ball and cry. Last night was one of those nights. Even vicoprofen didn’t help. :\ Today, I have been laying in bed all day (pushing training to tonight)...

Motivation
I’m watching The Biggest Loser S8E12, the ep where they run a marathon, and it is inspiring. I have always wanted to be the type of person who enjoys running. Before I started training, I had never run in my life. And now I actually want to get out of the house and go! I can’t run very far, but I’m try and I don’t give up. I definitely have the goal of running a marathon...

Day 12: Dinner
same as breakfast… organic peanut butter, reduced sugar jelly, whole wheat toast. plus 1 cup skim milk.
yes, I was supposed to have just protein and veggies but the idea makes me cringe. :( I am sooo done with low-carb! It feels like I’m failing but… I just cannot do it anymore. tomorrow is starch day anyway, and sunday is a “free day”. so I’m just one meal off...
