Chris1979's Journal, 02 Sep 10

Weight is the same today. That's fine. I'm not going to tie my success exclusively to a number. I know that I ate right yesterday, and that I did my mile walk.

I'm so tired today. Thursdays are going to be my least favorite day this semester. I don't get home til 10 on Wednesday night and then I have to get up at 6 on Thursdays so I can be at work by 7 AM. I need to be at work this early so that I can put in a full day's work by the time I go to class. I have class Thursdays starting at 4 PM. My last class lets out at 915. UGH.

On a positive note today is PAYDAY for me and I made it through the whole debit card experiment unscathed. My poor little credit card is probably feeling so neglected and unused!

I already spent $10 this month... I'm so bad!!! There was this iPhone "juice pack" which basically really extends the battery life... it's normally $40... I had a code for $40 off and then had to pay the shipping. They sold out in a heartbeat before I even had a chance to post it here.

Today I'm grateful for:
1) Reaching one small financial milestone
2) Being able to keep my calories in check this week
3) How many great freebies I got yesterday
65.8 kg Lost so far: 4.1 kg.    Still to go: 0 kg.    Diet followed: Reasonably Well.

You did great with your money. I think I need to take lesson from you. I also really like what you said about the scale not dictating to you whether you are a success or failure. I think I will have to remember that myself too. Chris I'm so glad I read your journal today. Thanks!!
