Sorry to be M.I.A. I've been checking the blog but don't really have much to update since my last post. I haven't lost any more weight, which is strange, but I don't really mind since my clothes are all fitting much better and i'm getting some noticible definition in my shoulders and sides, so I won't complain.

I had an o.k. diet day Monday; I ended up snacking on healthy snacks all day which put me over my goal calorie intake. Tuesday, I dieted and worked out like a rockstar . I had a doctor's appt. at 10:30, so I went to the gym and got a good workout in beforehand. Then I had time to make myself lunch, snacks, and dinner, since I had to work job II from 5-9. I got to work around 11:30am, had a short day, went straight to work II and had dinner there, then got home and went to bed and was well under my caloric goal.

Yesterday, I had planned to go to the gym but had a family crisis (my baby brother decided that he was going to move out/run away [he's 17 so I think it counts as running away, but it wasn't that dramatic] and I spent the evening on the phone with my dad, who was trying to track him down, and my mom, who is on a business trip in Florida and freaking out). Not to mention that my boyfriend's grandmother sent us an enormous box of homemade chocolate chip cookies. Anyway, so I had a couple cookies, had chicken cooked by the BF for dinner, then went out to bar trivia and had one beer all evening (and no snacks!). So, given the stress level of yesterday, I think I fared pretty well, except that I normally get to sleep around 10pm and managed to keep myself up worrying until around 2:30am. Yuck.

Anyway, the eating plan for today is:
[home]Breakfast: kashi go-lean crunch with vanilla soy milk
[car] coffee with skim milk.
[work ]Snack: fat free yogurt
[work] Lunch: salad, string cheese
[home]Dinner: ? probably chicken sausages with veggies- TBD.
[class] flavored water.

I should be home by 9:00 and do not plan to eat anything before bed. I had been planning on getting a quick work out in between work and class, but since I'm running on 4.5 hours of sleep and have to make it through class, I don't see that one happening.

So I might not weigh less, but at least I can see some definition in my muscles!!
