More Food Journaling

What I've eaten:

Another cup of raspberry and white tea
1 "Caramel Nut Brownie" Luna bar
Another Babel cheese round
Some grapes

My thoughts:

I'm cautiously optimistic. I've done pretty well thus far, but the day's hardly half over, and I have dinner ahead of me. I'm going to try really hard to be good. I'm thinking about capping it at one medium-sized slice of lasagna and two rolls without butter. My dad's also going to make asparagus, so I'm going to eat a crapload of that, too. I'm also going to eat a bit later, because while I don't need all of those calories right before I go to sleep, night-time is my weakness time. If I'm even the slightest bit not-full, I'll eat, and I shouldn't do that.

But I'm optimistic. Actually keeping track of what I'm eating is helping, and I'm loving this blog. I'm going to try really hard to post at least once every day, hopefully more. And everyone's support and tips and comments so far have really helped; it's nice to know that people are listening and caring about what's going on in my life. I'm just really glad that I'm not hiding this this time. I've tried to lose weight several times, but I always hid it, ashamed of my weight and my need to change. I think this might be the time I drop some weight. Even twenty pounds before the end of the school year would be a dream come true, though I think I'll probably lose more if I keep on this and don't falter.
