Ate well over the weekend-took the girls on a day trip yesterday but avoided junk food. Went to a lake about 120 miles away and swam and hiked. Probably should have stayed home and worked-went through today on 4-5 hours sleep. Had gluten today and didn't much care-otherwise ate well. Have been rotating kinds of greens in my salads. Sleepy now!

Last night I made baked ziti but didn't indulge, alas. Had a salad with some yummy spicy roasted dead bird flesh. Tonight I had a class so Dylan stepped up to the plate and made stuffed jalapeno peppers and refried beans with corn chips. Very yummy. He's doing lots better. Had an apple for lunch-very traditional for a teacher, I think. :)

Long days journey into night. Fish for lunch, chicken and salad and beans for dinner. Too much salt on fish(LJS). Tomorrow will pack lunch.

Been too long since I posted. Since Saturday I've eaten very healthily with good portion control; before that I had some emotional eating a couple days of downright ugly binging . Today I finally got to work with students and I'm back in a comfort zone; now instead of being thrown into an unknown sea of meetings and social/business functions , I plan a lesson and teach it 5 days a week for 182 6th graders(-easy-peazy.) Today I had a salad and cup of vegetable soup.

I wish I was less tired after working at the school, and I wish I had less pain at the end of the evening, but I've been eating well and in a few weeks I will have adjusted and probably have 15 lbs or so as well. Today I had a salad for lunch after a mid morning yogurt snack. The school has been very hot, so I had a couple zero calorie powerades tonight.

Had a salad and coffee during my trip to Colorado Springs yesterday but had pizza for dinner last night with raw cauliflower and ranch dressing. Trying to eat healthy is boring, so i need to frame it somehow to make it more positive. I don't react well to boredom.

Ate lunch and dinner both the last three days and feel kind of bloated and yucky; had people for dinner(as guests, not as menu item) on Sunday so felt obligated. Saturday has been my wtf day and today I just had been out of habit of fasting after lunch. Meals them selves were healthy. Tomorrow I see my advisor and get registered for the fall-hope the new degree will be fun.
