I had instant strawberry oatmeal for breakfast today, probably about 9 or maybe 10. I was up at 7:25 am this morning.
I had more peanut M&M's than I should of for a snack to tide me over until lunch.
I had fat free blueberry yogurt and more Fritos than I should of with bean dip.
I have had 2 refills of my 32 oz glass of water that I keep at my desk (this is were I need a digital camera). I cannot be sure how much water that is because I never fill it all the way full as I am freakishly concerned that I might spill it someday.
I had one cigarette today, it is now almost 2 pm.
I have a constant battle daily on whether my fight against smoking is hurting my fight to stop overeating. Today I think it hasn't made much of a difference. My choice in lunch was due to oversleeping. Oversleeping should not be an issue to my lunch choices but before this morning it never dawned on me that while my son is watching Blue's Clues in his preparation for bed I could be packing my lunch rather than sleeping or sitting downstairs on my computer.

I thought it was time I tried to take this up again.
I have been stretching every night for the last week I believe. Just a few basic stretches but it is already so gratifying to feel my body lengthen. I lifted weights on Sunday evening and Tues night. It is one of those periods where I am being more physically active so I hope I can cultivate the change taking place here. I have been walking on my breaks at work instead of smoking as well.
Normally it is the more active awake time of the year when I really feel the motivation for self improvement but the time for introspection is upon us and I have almost finished a complete cycle of the year with energy devoted to myself. Even as I feel disappointed that the changes are not more dramatic I do sense they are probably more profound than I realize. I need to revamp the title and such still. I just wanted to get this entry started while it was on my mind.
