It is happening. I am really out here eating pretty good. I am doing so much better than I thought and I really was struggling to get started. So much off and on. And not only am I on, but I am staying on. I am getting up and going for walks. I am jogging now and further than I used to. I want to start timing myself and seeing how quick my mile is. I think I can get a 12 minute mile going. I just have to stay on point. I have to continue to be firm in my choices, and not buy things that I know will not be good for me. I am actually eating veggies with every meal. I want to break down my shrimp pesto pasta meal  as far as calories and sodium is concerned. 

Shrimp (frozen) 8 

1 tsp salted butter melted 

onion powder 

pepper 

pappy's seasoning 

1/3 rd cup of bell pepper 

1/4 cup of onion 

1 handful of spinach 

whole wheat noodle 

1 1/2 tsp of jarred pesto sauce 

    I am sitting here and now that I am writing everything down, I need to measure things out. The veggies not really, but the spices and the wheat noodles, YES. I need to make a recipie and stick to it. I believe it is a low calorie meal, but then again I am not that sure. I need to go ahead and confirm some of these recipies before I put them in that list of "healthy food". Its homecooked and no grease, frying or sugar was involved..I can at least say that confidently. 

I am sitting here just being gratedul that I am making the changes. I am praying that I ALWAYS look back at that prayer that I wrote down. I am going to be in a better position, and at 30, I am going to look and feel completely different in life. I want to continue to eat better. I am not feeling as bloated and sluggish. Although, I am tired more often. I know it’s because my  body needs to get used to working out at this level. I am doing this for real.No more excuses and no more carring this body fat around. Im so sick of it. It has gone on long enough. I want out! I want to be free of this stuff. I really do. I am eating so much better. I am really seeing the difference in how I can stay focused and not be sleepy all through class. I am in fact already better than I used to be. Now I want to get up early, but sometimes I just am not getting there and doing that.
