brightbluegirlLast night my dreams, although frustrating and involving me telling two women off, and my lover pushing me away, were not violent.
And I woke up at 5:45 and couldn't go back to sleep, instead of 3am. Much better. Perhaps I'm on the upward swing!
I weighed myself this morning and had somehow gained 2 pounds. I think they are water and stress, not real pounds at all (Since my eating has been really good, at 1800 calories or less a day, and my exercise has also been really good - at least an hour of cardio a day). (Also, I have this horrible habit of weighing myself every day. It's an obsession, really. So two days ago I weighed 2 pounds less, and today... well. I'm not going to weigh myself again until Sunday. Andrew may have to lock up the scale.)
So I measured myself - my thighs are 1/2 inch smaller, and my waist is a whole inch smaller! My calves are actually 1/2 inch larger, but I think that's due to all the biking and walking. I can handle that. :D
I started off the day kind of sad and pissed at the world, but my bike ride in really improved my mood. With Radiohead on my discman, and my legs pumping hard to get me to work, I ended up feeling really good.
I realized that I HAVE to win. I HAVE to win this fight against my weight (and the fight against my debt). And since I've given myself no other option - I will succeed. Just because I won't reach my goals tomorrow doesn't mean I should get upset.
Yesterday we tried to get Cam a ticket to come visit. It was hard! Between the morning and the afternoon, all the tickets doubled in price. But we persevered and found a ticket for a reasonable price. He'll be here on Tuesday, and leave Saturday morning.
Woohoo!!!!
Right after he got the tickets, I had to run. I felt bad, but my chiropractor appointment was at 5:15 and I had to bike there. I think he understood, though.
I'm SOOOO glad he's coming to visit. Having people around is so good.
I got Friday off, and I'm going to try to switch Thursday for a Saturday or something. I want to be able to spend as much time as possible with him.
