Okay so today is officially my first day of my working at my goals. I mean, I did well last night, and actually for the most part I do pretty well, but sometimes I get into those moods where I just need to keep stuffing my face even though I am not hungry. It is those time were I really need to pray. So anyway, I started out with my usually measured cup of cereal (no milk) and a cup of strawberries for breakfast. I packed a salad with turkey for lunch. Dinner time is usually the hardest for me. Its hard to limit my portion sizes when I am cooking such a large meal for everyone. I plan to make something with pork chops. I'll probably bake it and make corn and sweet potatoes. Just gotta remember that no matter how good it tastes, no matter how much is left over, I can't keep on eating.
Also, I'm going to be honest, I didn't wake up until 7:00 today which is not improvement at all. I woke up last night with my lingering cold at 4:00 and didn't get back to sleep til at least 5:00. So then I did my famous adjusting of the alarm clock again. I really have to work on that. Anyway, we'll see how it goes. Also, I'm not doing a very good job at not being too busy. I just decided to take on the responsibility of planning my family Christmas party since no one else is stepping up to the plate. It will be after I get out of school so I think that it should be okay, but I hope that I am not taking on too much. I will continue to pray about it and maybe pawn it off on my mother if it gets too hard for me. I don't know why I feel the need to do everything for everyone. Any suggestions?
Well, I'll let you know how the rest of the day has gone. And someone please leave a comment so I don't feel like I am the only one reading my blogs :)

Hi Leah,
I did read your blog, and I think it's nice to see people being open and honest about the struggles in their lives. I think it really helps to have a partner to share in our struggles and to encourage us. It's wonderful to see that the whole focus seems to be about being obedient to God through all of these things. Keep up the good work.

Leah,
Yes, I will read your blog. As for getting out of bed when the alarm goes off, it has helped me (3 whole days in a row...haha) to just jump out without thinking. Once you begin to make excuses or procrastinate, that gives the devil a foothold. Keep on keeping on. Love ya, Dianna
Leah, Leah, Leah,
I'm glad you too have this blog, I will be reading both of them for support, I was trying the sugarbuster way of eating but now I'm just concentrating on not over indulging, maybe just eating the portion and no seconds!!!!! and please maybe if you think of me in the morning you'll get out of bed. I get out of bed at 4:30 and the sad thing is, You're still in bed and I'm still on my way to work. GET UP!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Love Ya
Jane
