Last Day of Work!!!

YAY! Its finally here! The last day of work until January! WOOHOO!!

So last night my weight session got cancelled. I was so tired I couldnt form sentences so we just went to bed early...like really early, 8:30! Its ok, that session was optional and I can do it tomorrow as I am off all day.

This morning I was up at 4:30 again to run. It was HARD today...those 30 mins seemed to take forever. I can definitely tell my body is getting more and more tired! Tonight I have an hour swim, it will suck because kids are out of school and its holiday hours so the pool will be crowded!

I have been doing some precourse work and learning alot.
-It doesnt matter what it is I just need something sweet to stop the craving, a peice of fruit works just as good as chocolate....a real revelation for me!
-I have already found two trigger foods I cant have in the house, marshmallows and sprinkles. Its bad! I am making rice crispy squares tomorrow for christmas so whatever is left over after that is being TOSSED OUT! I feel bad about the waste but I cant have it in the house
- I love trying new foods and recipes, so I should do it more! I had a passionfruit last night...OMG! So amazing!

So still having trouble eating meat. I was making Phils ham sandwiches this morning and kept picturing the pigs....eeek....so tonight I am making quesadillas with black beans instead of chicken! You know I just looked at MyPlate and today is a completely vegetarian day! Go me!

For breakfast I decided to try some oats...I really want to like them and they are so nutritious and filling...but I dont! I tried pumpkin oats.....1/2 c oats, 1/2 c water, 1/2 c milk, 1/4 c pumpkin, sweetened with agave nectar and a sprinkle of pumpkin pie spice and brown sugar.....eewwwwwwwwwwwww!! I had seen a rave review and pictures and thought it sounded so good...maybe oats are just not for me! I will continue to try but I couldnt even choke these down!

OH did I mention I met my goal of drinking water yesterday? I actually drank 3 bottles! WOOHOO! And only had a sip of diet sprite before deciding the aspartame isnt worth it. I am making changes, they are slow, but atleast I am making them!
