Hmmm...well

Lent results:

Cookies = zero

Candy = zero

Drive thru trips.....well. I guess that is going to be the hardest one for me! It's almost like the Tim Horton's drive thru has a magnet that turns my car into it! Sad I know.

I will go with the AA thought process - one day at a time. Tomorrow I will not hit a drive-thru. I can't say anything about the next day BUT tomorrow I will not!!!

I've been fairly stressed about this paper for school, it's been consuming my life. I suck at writing papers; probably because I HATE IT!!!! AHHHHHHHH

It is due tomorrow and I might possibly be awake all night working on it. I realize it is my own fault BUT I will whine about it anyways.

So after school I will hit the gym!! I miss it.

A little nice husband story - he told me that even though I may not see myself as pretty right now, he does. It was nice to hear (even if it's not true!! LOL).

Lent

I went to the gym yesterday! Yeah me!

Tomorrow is Ash Wednesday; these are my Lent promises this year:

No food from places that have a drive-thru

No cookies (a major weakness of mine)

No candy (2nd weakness after cookies)

OH - and only one Panera bagel a week!

This will be a looooooong 40 days!!

Amazing what starting a blog can do for you

I am so motivated to become a more fit and confident version of me!! I look in the mirror and I don't like what I see. I hide in big sweaters and sweatshirts and tell myself it's okay.

I don't want to be the couple who people look at and think "what is that really fit guy doing with chunky butt?"

Today

Today I will work out.

Today I will make wise food choices.

Today I will appreciate life.

Today I realize that good health is precious, and a shorter life can result when you ignore health issues you would rather not deal with.

Today I honor my friend, who did not have health on his side, and who's life was cut way too short because it.

RIP - James Long, I will miss you.
