I've got the munchies

The past couple weeks have been filled with parties, appointments, extra time with the kids, late nights, little sleep. With all that said, I have noticed I have been eating more lately. I find myself making myself finish all my plate, or getting the munchies and giving into the craving especially at night. As I near the down 40 mark, I feel frustrated that I have lacked in my eating discipline. I know it's a result of fatigue. I am so tired!- I have had a headache the past 5 of 7 days. I can feel a cold coming on, and all I want is some sleep. Some, long, quiet, uninterrupted sleep. The kind when you wake feeling alive, refreshed, and ready to do it all!

I have to celebrate and say my pants are definitely smaller. I started at a 16 and now fit easily and loosely into a 12. I don't think I have worn a 12 since pre-pregnancy with Jacob!!! At 38 pounds down and only 22 pounds to go, I feel like there is a light at the end of the tunnel. So, you can probably see how giving into those junk food munchies would make me disappointed. Monday is new day, and I intend to get back on the life style I have been enjoying. I know with some good rest, I will make the goal. This is going to be a rough week, because I will be giving up one of the things I love so much... diet pepsi! This might be the hardest thing for me to do. It's become a way to make it through- sad huh? I love a fountain pop early in the day and a can of cold diet pepsi later on- pray for me as I try to break this addiction. Because I really DON'T want to. I am hoping to not be legalistic about it. I want to break the addiction and hopefully I can enjoy a cold one again some time down the road.
