HOW I FEEL ABOUT IT ALL:

Ok so I totally rocked this week!  I made it through Valentine's day without cheating big time and made it a whole week without cheating and missing a workout.  And it totally paid off- I made my hefty goal and cannot even tell you how excited I felt when I saw that number on the scale at my weigh-in Sunday morning.  I felt great.  The running workout were so very hard this week for some reason and I wanted to quit or just not do them so many times and I'm so glad I did.  I can honestly say I gave it 110% in the workouts.  I'm also real proud that I didn't cheat and snack on things throughout the week.
I decided I would allow myself 1 Dove Dark Chocolate heart a day.

It's only 37 calories and it fills my sweet cravings very easily.  Speaking of cravings I've definitely noticed my cravings are starting to curb quite a bit.  I feel so energized and motivated and I'm realizing that this really will be the time that I finish and lose the weight and won't give up.  I know next week and the couple weeks after that will be tricky since my brother and his sweet family will be here for 13 days on vacation.  But I'm preparing myself well and I know I will be just fine and stick to the plan.  And you better believe I will be living it up on my Free Days:)  I got this, people... I got this!!!
