Getting prepped for the weekend...

I woke up HUNGRY this morning.... the kind of hunger, which would normally set me into a tizzy ripping through cabinets....

This morning was stressful, we woke up late this morning... (another trigger for me to overeat....)

I get the kids off to school...still STARVING... with nothing in the house I want to eat...I am fruit-ed & yoghurt-ed OUT...

I get to the grocery store looking to buy something to eat RIGHT NOW... I will admit in the past, going to the store CRAZY, HUNGRY has been a BAD IDEA...I would buy all sorts of crap & usually grab a bag of chips or something else equally bad to snack on in the car... (hmmm, wonder why I have been gaining so much weight?)

Today, I went into the store... prepared to "take the day off"...... I have been SOOO GOOD...

I ended up leaving the store with Spiced Ham... mozzarella, tomatoes, cucumbers, and a loaf of warm 5 grain bread.... NOTHING bad even appealed to me...AT ALL...

I am THINKING & FEELING like a thin person.... (I have never felt like this before.... ) Now mind you... I have only lost 6 lbs... so I am a LONG way from my goal.... sometimes I have to remind myself that I have a long way to go... but then again maybe I should just GO with it... Keep thinking fit /thin?

Based on how hungry I was this morning I don't think I ate enough yesterday.... I am not measuring our counting anything...I am just eating when I am hungry because I don't have the urge to snack.... Today I am going to try to eat a little more protein....

On my way to work yesterday I stopped & bought myself new hiking shoes... (it is starting to get slippery over here...) Remembering I had the shoes in my car, I took my lunch break & went for a 30 min walk.... i also did a 30 walk before going to work.... Yea me.... I feel GOOD....

The real test will be tonight... I am going to a ladies coffee...(with lots of yummy Norwegian desserts.... ) I think I will listen to my Hypnosis thing one more time before I go...

How are y'all doing?

Yeah, unfortunately I listened to the hypnosis and I don't feel any different! What am I doing wrong?
