here I go, rambling on again :)

ok, I don't want to jinx it, but I am doing really well so far this week. It's my second week in a row on core, and I still have 11 of my weekly points left! For me, that's huge. Usually by now I've used up all my extra points and I have to rely on my activity points (of which I earn 2-3 per day for the rest of the week from aerobics) I'm going to step on the scale at the gym today and see how I'm faring, keep your finders crossed for me! I have 3.2 to go to reach that 100 lb goal, but I've been closer before.

Oh core how I love thee, let me count the ways.
I'm still writing everything down (I think that's where I screwed up last time I tried core) and eating lots and lots of fruit. It's totally helping that all the excess food is gone from the office, even the "I'm dieting so I'll bring in everything bad from my house so everyone else can eat it" food. Plus I'm fairly busy at work - at least in the morning, and then I do get sort of bored in the afternoon, so I eat, but I still have a pile of fruit on my desk, and I LOVE fruit (esp oranges!) so it's a-ok. One think I'm not getting in is my dairy. Since skim milk is core, I think I need to either bring in some milk to work or start having a glass with breakfast every morning. Or both. Of course Robyn and I are upping our Island Bean latte intake, so that's helping with the dairy serving a little.

I think I was just oh so tired of counting points and tired of going over them, every day, every week. I feel like I can relax a little on core. It seems like before, I was able to be a little lax on points and the program and I'd still loose weight. Now is a different story. It seems if I'm not perfect, I will gain. Core is my savior.
