a weekend of good choices?

Feeling sluggish and foggy again today. I would love to put together more then 3 goods days in row. That would awesome.

I ate out too much yesterday. Made good choices, but came home and ate alittle more. Good stuff, but stuff anyway. I was eating and I wasn't really hungry. I have noticed that I am eating to put myself to sleep. Not a good thing. I have been doing this for about a month now. This week my effort with food has been good. Except for yesterday, and then it was just so-so. Nothing bad, just eating myself too full a few times. Water hasn't been the greatest. Need to kick it up over the weekend.

Babysitting tonight and a sleep over at my daughter's. I will walk out there in the morning. I have some podcasts I want to listen. It will be nice to walk myself. I like my buddies, but sometimes I want to walk alone, to think.

hope your weekend is full of good choices!

    Good choices...that's what it all really boils down to, isn't it? When we do right, eat right, think right... it all seems to fall in place quite nicely.

    Have a great weekend.

    Eating too much, even fruits and veggies, makes me feel blah and blech. Hope you snap out of the fog today, and for a good while!

    You are right that even if you are eating too much of the good food, then it's still too much. Here's hoping you have a great weekend, both food wise and life wise!

    At least you realize that you are eating too much of good foods. i think too often people see "good" foods as ones they can indulge in and forget that they still have calories. Good luck this weekend and have a great time with your daughter!!!!!

    Sorry you're feeling sluggish and foggy. I know I use to always have to eat before bed, it was like I need that full feeling to sleep. I've switched to just having hot tea (honey vanilla chamomile) with milk most nights and that seems to do the trick. I also know what you mean about sometimes just wanting to walk alone. I always feel guilty when I tell the kids no but sometimes you do just need the time with yourself. Hope you have a good night with the kids.

    I've done that before where I eat, so I can go to sleep! What I have been doing now for the past week is taking a walk with my husband at night. We take an easy stroll and it's enough to get me tired for bed. Hope you get out of the fog soon, which I know you will be!

    Hey Dana,
    *BigHugs!*
    This has got to be related to going off the meds, yes?
    Perhaps you're reaching for the food to medicate your mind without knowing it?
    I love the sound of your walk with podcasts & alone time.
    Take care, Kiddo!

    I love walking by myself. It is a time that I get to just think about whatever I have on my mind...I often solve problems while I walk. And I do love my iPod too.

    Hope you will feel better soon. And thanks for your comment on my blog reminding me that I am indeed a very lucky person.

Contentment at last

Oh my goodness!!  I can't beleive how long it's been since I haave posted here.  So maybe things have changed.  The month I moved in with my son and daughter in law, a friend from high school asked if I wanted to be a "Granny Nanny" for her 86 year old mother.  It would mean moving back to my home town and living with the woman.  I didn't hesitate.  I had a good feeling about it from the start, so I went for it.  So, as of the first of October I have been residing in a cozy little home in Orem, UT.  The woman is just a sweetheart.  So easy to please and I feel so comfortable.  The pay is great too.  I like living with someone and it has just been a win/win.  I love my surroundings.  I love the mountains, the memories, being around my extended family.  My sister lives here, as does my aunt, a ton of cousins on both sides of the family.  Of course the downside is I am away from my kids and my grandkids.  I m...

A Traditionally Built Woman

I am listening to the latest No. 1 Ladies Detective Agency books. Blue Shoes and Happiness. They are sweet simple stories about a woman in Botswana Africa. She is a "traditionally built" woman. This means of course that she is heavy. I have never seen the show on HBO, but I love the books. In this book she decides to go on a diet. All her litle "insights" about going on a diet are cute....and so true. My favorite is how it's human nature that when you decide to restict ANYTHING you always end up wanting more of it. How she thought that was funny, until she herself was on a diet, now not so funny. How she gets crabby when she's hungry. I could so relate and it made me smile. People, we are more alike then we are different. The book is written by a white man, which I think is great. See, more alike then we are different. I have my grandkids birthday party today. My daughter, "C," is doing 2 kids in one party. They are still young enough that they don...
