Some Clarification

Most of you know me, so this is superfluous.  I’m going to write it anyway.

This diet thing is a pain.  I cannot just go out and buy a cookbook with low calorie, fat free recipes.  Why?  Because I hate all that crap.  I’m finicky and have serious food issues.  I just want to cut back on fat and calories and try to exercise more. 

It has been relativley easy, but there have been moments of weakness.  I blame it on hormones, and I’m being dead serious. 

The routine that I set in my mind was easy up until PMS reared its ugly head.  I always protested that I wasn’t an emotional eater, but during PMS, well, that’s another story.  Luckily, it only lasts a few days and depending on what stressors I have at the moment, can be pretty mild or off the charts.

So with that said, I’m doing the best that I can at the moment.  I’m know I could do even better, but I’m not in that PLACE yet.

Baby steps.
