successes and failures

Failures:

• I woke up with a slight headache and feeling generally unmotivated; blah; exhausted.


• I left a box of Reese's Puffs cereal by the couch last night and woke up around 1:00 and was entirely too sleepy to make full use of my willpower.


• I ate more than was necessary at lunch; especially since I ate a good breakfast. (Surely the chicken salad sandwich was enough; no need for the three barbecue chicken tenders afterwards.)


• I ate dinner (albeit a 'measley' 300 calorie Healthy Choice frozen meal) at quarter to 8:00.


• I had a few pieces of candy (damn my mom for having a bowl of conversation hearts!) and one peanut butter sandwich cookie.


• I drank less than a liter of water today (but managed to drink two Pepsi Max).


• My shins are positively killing me because I have not been walking in a proper pair of shoes.


• I have ANOTHER earache!!! (That's one a month for the past four months; but who's counting?)

Successes:

• Though I didn't get up as early as I did yesterday I still got up despite wanting to stay curled up in bed. Badly.


• I walked [roughly] three miles in about 50 minutes!


• I came home from walking and realized that the headache I woke up with was no more!


• I have felt remarkably energized most of the day.


• I turned down the Hershey's White Chocolate Chips (which are positively divine) when my sister flashed them at me.


• My mom gave me a pair of walking shoes that are designed specifically for flat feet. I'm looking forward to trying them out tomorrow!


• The pain in my ear isn't severe (yet) and I have some leftover Lortab to deal with it tonight. And the heating pad seems to help, too.

I will do better tomorrow.
