I am getting better at planning my meals. I bring my lunch to work so I have control of my portions. I am learning new things at our weekly nutrition class for example how to figure out the amount of servings of carbs, proteins and fat from a food label. I'm not as confused about the carb, protein and fat counting. Now I need to remember that calories count as well, so I need to be careful not to eat too many carbs in one meal. This is great. I am learning so many things I never knew about food. I just knew food is what we need to live and I ate well! My family has been supportive and they are eating what I cook at home. My husband has gone back to the gym with me and we are both eating healthy. The week-ends are challenging because we enjoy eating out. I will be traveling to Arizona for the week-end to visit family and I am definitely up for a challange, my family's social gathering involves a lot of delicious food!
My goal this week is to exercise 5 days. I have been logging my food this week. I find if I don't log my food, I eat more. Since I have increased my exercising I have more energy and I look forward to my work outs. It's a great feeling when you step off the treadmill, legs shaking, and knowing you put in a hard work out!

Good luck at the family visit. I know what you mean! When my family gets together there is always plenty. I am learning thought that I can be an example to everyone else and it feels great when others compliment me on "being good". Better choices, better food and a better life. Have a nice vacation!
You are doing great! You go girl.
