I had a really good day yesterday. I resisted the urge for Gertrude Hawk AND I went to the gym. I didn't do a lot of snacking and although I did slightly overstuff myself with dinner, it was a very low calorie Syrian dish that mom made so it could have been much worse.

My goal of two weeks ago regarding getting my sodium down has actually been going well!! I've been waking up a little earlier and packing lunch instead of grabbing a can of soup or a smart ones. I haven't eaten out in a VERY long time and I can feel the difference in my joints. Hopefully that will mean ANOTHER loss this week!!

I plan on going to the gym tonight for cardio AND lifting. I don't like going in the evenings because there's a class in the yoga room where I had to use the free weights. Not a big deal except I don't like battling the big boys for the equipment, lol.

Three Things I'm Grateful for Today:
1. Seeing my old students and have them wave obnoxiously in the hallways.
2. Good snow tires
3. Snail mail

Oh, good for you! I guess that answered the question I just wrote on your yesterday's journal. What is Syrian food--like middle eastern type stuff? I've never had. Good for you with the packing of the lunch! It's so worth the effort. I hate using weights with guys. I always feel like I'm puny and doing everything wrong.

Thanks! I just kept saying no when they asked me to buy and before I knew it the day was over! Syrian food is middle eastern-ish. It's a lot like "Greek Food" but with variations. It's cooked with all-spice most of the time..lots of lamb and rice. I feel the same way when I lift weights! It's like theyre looking at me funny because I'm only using 35 pounds or so...I feel so awkward. :(

Oooh snail mail that's a good one! It's nice to get a REAL card or letter in the mail sometimes. :)
