All I want is Cheetos

I'm really tired today and when I'm tired all I want to do is eat, especially Cheetos. This is a bad habit. Cheetos don't make me feel any more awake they just taste good and tired Ginny wants them in her mouth. I shall resit though.

I've been trying to eat better. The biggest change has been getting a side salad or veggies on the side rather than french fries. This is a huge deal for me because I love french fries like they were my first born child and I tend to eat out a few times a week. It's been tough but then I remember that I actually enjoy salad. Not as much as french fries, but I'm not forcing myself to eat something I don't like.

I've also been trying to snack less. I'm a big snacker, especially at work. I'm trying to get better at waiting and determining if I'm actually hungry.

I purchased a scale because I know I'm a visual person and seeing the numbers on the scale will motivate me more than anything else. I only weigh myself once a week. I put the scale away otherwise because the cats will try to sit on it and it runs on batteries. I think Bosco is upset that I revealed his weight in a previous post or he's just a cat who will sit on anything because it's there.

I don't want to lose that much weight. Probably about 10lbs and then see where I go from there. I think that's reasonable. I'd to apologize in advance if the economy in Idaho tanks from my lack of potato eating.

I do a killer whale impersonation

Today I imitated a whale in a pool. All you need is one noodle, some water in the noodle and then a deep breath to blow the water out of your imitation blow hole. Tony's granddaughter found this pretty funny and we were both spouting water in the pool. I then made her guess what type of whale I was.

I took some of my mom's yarn so I can start crocheting again. Unfortunately my whale imitation is better than my crocheting at the moment. I know the basics but want to try to crochet something besides another scarf.

I avoided french fries twice this weekend. I'm quite proud of myself. I had two salads for dinner instead and they were both really good. I drank some sangria and was pretty happy about that. I forgot that it exists and I was like, why am I not drinking that? I love sangria. I'd like to try to make it myself.

Now I'm waiting for my hair to dry so I can go to bed. I don't like sleeping with chlorine hair and the cats kept licking my legs like weirdos. Enjoy that chlorine skin guys.

I was a lazy mofo this weekend

I have not left the house since Friday night. I really took lazy to a whole new level. I watched massive amounts of Netflix and took many naps. It was pretty awesome. Now It's back to work which is going to be rough after 4 days away. But it's going to be in the 60s today! High five to my fellow New Englanders.

To bust out of sloth mode I woke up early and did a little but of yoga. I made my lunch to bring to work. Bring it on Monday.

I like Tara Stiles' yoga videos, which is what I used this morning. I also like her Tumblr. Gets me motivated to not be so lazy about exercising and eating better.

Enough of this crap

Alright, enough of this crap. That's what I've been eating lately - crap. Mozzarella sticks at 3 a.m.? Delicious at the time, gross afterwards. I've packed myself a pretty healthy lunch and healthy snacks for work today. I'm so grossed out by unhealthy food right now that I'm actually craving veggies and salad. As long as I don't smell french fries I think I'll be ok.

2.5 days of work and then it's time to stuff my face with my family.
