And I want you And I want you And I want you

Today's topic is Availability and Temptation.

So I obviously haven't been sticking to my goal of making this a daily thing...so I'll work harder on just at least posting something quick every day, but we'll see...I'm kind of fat and lazy, even about something as easy as sitting in bed typing, but I promise to try. For you.

Starting this blog has inspired me to think more about being healthy. I knew I probably wouldn't get up and join a gym and start jogging at 7am every morning, but I did discover the "excercise tv" section on On Demand! I've been doing two "10-minute work outs" every other day. Yep, 20 minutes of excercise three times a week...it doesn't sound like much, but it's definitely progress for me! I've been doing the Cardio Blast and the Pilates Abs...I can't say I've seen a difference, but that might be because I haven't really attempted to diet.

Dieting is pretty hard. I think that it's a question of availability. I am a huge snacker. I could avoid meals altogether if I didn't have a boyfriend who cooks dinner almost every night for me. I love just grabbing a few cookies, or a banana, or a handful (or 6) of crackers. But I think this is my downfall. I went to safeway and bought 6 different snack items that appealed to me in "100 calorie packs." I am definitely reaching for those now, instead of other less "healthy" snacks, but the problem is that I'll have a few of them...one pack of almonds, one chewy bar and one little bag of cookies. 300 empty calories. Well I guess almonds aren't bad, but you see what I mean? I eat what's available. If its in my cupboard or fridge, I'll eat it. Unless it's something disgusting like a liver and onion sandwich. Maybe I should just stock my fridge with things my boyfriend loves and I hate? I wish I could just excercise more self control!!!

I just ate a cookie for breakfast. A big Chocolate Chip one.
