(personal/writing) And the beat goes on...

My iPod is amazing. Why did I wait so long to get one again?

Got Chapter 1 done last night, and started Chapter 2. I'll post metrics later tonight - for some reason, around 10 pm last night I crashed hard. Weird. Oh well.

So today's goals:

Work:
- get farther into my HR II certificate

Tonight:
- Finish Chapter 2
- Balance checkbook
- Start Chapter 3

Oh crap, I forgot to take something out for dinner. Oh well, guess we're having tacos again. >.<

Yay on the quitting soda!

You go girl! I would never have believed how much easier it went once I quit taking big slugs of sugar several times a day. Getting off sugar (mostly) counts as the first successful diet I've been on in twenty years.

Icon love!

I'm finding that - of course, when I'm off the damn crutches and able to do more than limp around, it will come off faster. But I'm working on it.

Not sure if this will work for you or not but I've started a -thus far- successful experiment with club soda. My brain is still tricked into the ritual of getting a glass of ice and opening a soda-looking bottle and getting something cold and fizzy to drink... I just lie to it and tell it we've been eating dessert and that's why the cold fizzy isn't sweet... So far the brain seems to be buying it :)
I'm still getting my "fix" but with zero calories, carbs or anything else. Plus it works like drinking water and reduces my urge to find a snack. Just thought I'd throw it out there as another thing to try.
