I haven’t writen anything in awhile, so why not…

Woohoo, I got back to seattle yesterday. I spent Wed-Sun back home in good’ol Walla x2. And I couldn’t be more happy to be back in Seattle. I finally noticed that I’ve reached the point where when I “go back home”, I feel like I’m actually away from home.
My Mom’s house is like a foreign place now, I can’t find the light switches in the dark anymore and the bed I slept on for the majority of my childhood and then some seems small and unusual. Does it make me strange or weird to not feel at home where I grew up?
But yeah, the point is, i’m back, Thanksgiving is over and I could barely button my work pants this morning. Oops, I’m fat and I needs diet and exercise. Awfully american of me don’t ya think?
Anyway, I chose not to wear a belt today, seeing as there was no need. My pants did a fine job keeping themselves up. But the good part was, through out my day dreams today, I realized that it was a monday, and the first of a new month, which is the perfect time to set new goals. So here they are.
diet:
cut WAY back on the sugars, since thats like 85% of my diet that will be rough.
Try to stop eating and stick the rest of my meal in the fridge so I can cut my portions in half.
No beer for an entire month!
This kind of goes with the no sugars thing but I am gonna try to drink way less soda, which may be the hardest one.
And while I’m at it i was thinking of buying a bunch of vitamins for like at least a months worth and getting one of those little cases with the boxes for each day of the week.
I don’t think I can cut back on meat. If someone tries to take beef, pork or chicken away from me, there’s gonna be problems. But I was thinking of trying to eat MORE vegetables to compensate?
And next will be exercise. But I’m tired so I’ll type that tomorrow! Stay tuned for the next exciting episode!
How’s your diet working out? I lost a lot last year but did the whole yo yo diet thing and gained it all back. I know what you mean about home not feeling like home; I feel like that when I go to walla walla too.
