Well I haven't posted in a while, just been busy at work, my so called relationship is having issues and just tired. This week was my first week "on program" which mean eating right and excercising and I got my period. So I think for the first time I had PMS cravings that everyone else talks about and I never noticed. I think I never noticed because whatever the craving was I would satisfy it and that would be it. Really it wasn't that bad looking back, but it was annoying being in the middle of it.
I have been checking most of the foods I don't cook against calorie king, just to get an idea of where I am. I also check what calories I need to lose. Kinda shocked me to realize I was eating 3000+ calories a day. Right now I am doing 2000 or less, and not missing anything really. If I can stay about that. I should lose a poind a week. Thats the goal anyway. I really want the dimples in my thighs to go away. Would be really nice to be comfortable enough to wear shorts again.
I finally got away to my prevention fitness walk DVDs (walk fit, walk slim respectively). They are not walking DVDs. Thank goodness I did WATP first or I would have been pretty beat up. They are more beginnger aerobics with brisk walking. I guess in higher levels they jog instead. Anyway all that WATP came in handy. When I couldn't do something I walked to the beat of the music.
I have been doing the walk strong DVDs on mon, wed, and saturday and that has given me a good leg work out (beginner) so my knees have gotten much better. Who would have thought squats would help bad knees. I really need to get better sneakers the pronation on my left foot is a real problem.
I also ordered Yoga Booty Ballet. I wanted another toning video. This will be my last one for a while. I think I have a good mix at this point I won't get bored. Also I feel like until I can truly call myself an intermediate I want to learn and this got pretty good reviews on 3fc.
Ok.....that was a long post.

Ok, I am not sure whats going on I think my body is adjusting to TOM and healthy eating. I have had more cravings in the last 2 days than the last 2 months.
So I am making a stand, no more little choclate candies.
My girlfriend bought some and put them in the candy dish. Normally I eat one every 2 weeks and forget about them any other time. I have eaten 8 of them today and refuse to eat anymore. I'm not hungry, and maybe my body needs sugar,but I think I want to be able to choose. I also know if someone was in the room with me I wo uldn't be eating so there is an element of sneaking here.
