Day 17? Ugh as I’m sure you can tell by now I can’t count! I think I am on Day 17 of being clean (eating healthy & NO bingeing). I haven’t had a soda in two days, though last night was a challenge! I wanted a soda bad, but I didn’t have one… actually I worked out and stayed up a little and then went to bed.

 You know it is kind of interesting, I am the most healthy person in the house with the exception of the teenager. Even my personal trainer was kind of amazed that I am as healthy as I am. I told him, “yeah, my only problem is I’m fat!” We aren’t sure what is wrong with my husband, he seems to have a chronic fatigue disease and high blood pressure and my room mate is diabetic. My mom is that way too, she is really pretty healthy for a 73 year old woman. She drinks and smokes too! (I don’t smoke, but I like the occasional drink… not to be for awhile I’m sure).

 I am a bit concerned about being too sedentary, and I know I am. I work in a Call Center… and after a while you end up with the call center physique…. kind of portly and non descript! Maybe I should get a new job that is more physical? Anyway, I’ve been trying to figure out how I can fit more activity into my life, and I’m not sure how! The 55 minutes a night is bad enough on one of my busy nights. Unfortunately I can only visit my personal trainer once a week… I can’t afford more, so that is the best I can do right now. My husband is an insomniac so morning exorcise is kind of out of the question.

Don’t get me wrong I am committed to becoming more healthy and losing the weight, I’m just not sure where I’m going to fit everything in!

Maybe this is why all the thin people I know have the weirdest eating habits… They don’t eat for two days, and then when the do eat it’s three bites of something and then they complain of having an upset stomach.
