Healthy choice.

Today I went to the Kentucky State fair... Now we all know the fair is known for its fried, fattening foods... A Krispy Kreme doughnut burger, fried Oreos, funnel cakes, Pork Butt on a stick??!!?? Geeeezzz... It's everywhere you look. Now most of that is avoidable for me, as FRIED OREOS don't even sound good!! Yuckkk!!! BUT... With all the smells of food at every turn, it's almost inevitable that you're gonna eat something terrible... & probably "think" you're hungry when you're not! However, I'm actually pretty proud of myself! My family & I ate lunch at the fair, & my food of choice was a grilled chicken sandwich. I would have much rather had my husbands 1/2 lb cheeseburger & fries or my daughters chicken tenders basket, but I did good. AND I felt good about myself afterwards :) its a great feeling!

Accountability is the key to success.

I have been slacking for far too long. I feel like I've gained a few lbs back but I'm scared to weigh. I have used one excuse after another, but my most recent being not just an excuse, but a "reason." I sprained my ankle several days ago and I've had to lay around with my foot propped up. I forced myself to get up & get something accomplished today. Today is a brand new day & it's never too late to start over. It begins here... Blogging... Every day... Accountability is the key to success!!
