Quickie Update

I *think* I've rounded a corner on my eating. I've mentioned in the past that I'm usually only "on it" with either exercise OR eating, but never both. For the last 1.5 days, I've been on target with both. I'm not sure yet that it will stick- though I'm trying very hard. What I do know, is that I LOVE this feeling. I don't feel deprived, but I'm also not going overboard with snacks, especially after work, which is where I've been most out of control. I hate to say it, but I think eventually I need to seek an opportunity to stop working night shift. It's just not good for my eating patterns, I've discovered. Unfortunately, that would mean a pay cut if I moved to day shift at the hospital. And a lot more hectic-ness. I'm not sure I'm ready for that.

My weigh-in was atrocious this week, but I think that will turn out to be a good thing because it makes me realize that there's no more scraping by if I want to ever see my goal weight in life. I think this is a good thing. AND, I'm down 0.8 pounds this morning. I think I need to be a daily scale user. I know there are a lot of opinions on this, but 7 days is way, way too long for me to ignore what's going on with my weight!
