Back home… 10 flex points left… and today’s day 4 I’d like to use 0 zero zip zilch flex points over the next 3 days or so, if possible (it’s a lot easier at home!)

EDITED TO ADD: I went back and added in Activity points for Sunday and today and I feel a whole lot better. I am starting today w/ 14 flex points, not 10, and I have activity points to add in today. (I always forget to use these! and this week I need them!)

I’m having a hard time today figuring out what I want to eat… just kinda a weird day. I opened a can of soup, it didn’t sound good. I started to make a salad. Ditto. I considered a bean burrito w/ ff cheese but I didn’t want to use a point on the tortilla… hmmm… so far today all I’ve eaten is fruit and veggies! Which is good… but I need protein too…

50 crunches (daily)					x	x

Started my week off right (yesterday) by doing step aerobics and today by doing group power! It feels good to be on track with exercise and I’m excited to see what my loss will be this week on my second week of CORE!

Bad news is… I am currently at “CORE hell” aka: the In-laws. How can I eat right here when my mouth starts salivating the moment i walk in the door?!??! You should see all the leftovers from yesterday’s super bowl party/ FIL’s birthday… YIKES! So far I’ve only eaten licorice (bad) and the lunch I packed for myself… o and a lean cuisine. I’m being good… it’s just TOUGH! More later…

UPDATE: I crumbled toward the end of the evening (I can kinda blame it on DH)… I asked for a bite of his icecream and he brought me a bowl, w/ 2 small scoops. WHY? WHY? didn’t I just get up and get rid of it??? Well… the answer, I suppose, is the reason we are all here… blogging and fighting w/ food! (; Here’s to a fresh day!
