Did a bit more on the elliptical, also tried to keep it at a higher intensity. Felt pretty good... a bit of arms and abs, lots of stretching. So... it has been a bit over two months since I have had any diet soda/caffeine, I was not a huge drinker, and the first week or so were a bit hard but I don't really miss or crave it anymore now. So I thought to myself, lets really get to the core of my problem. I have a huge sweet/chocolate craving, and started last week cutting this from my diet. I was doing pretty well until yesterday and today... man I know that I can never tell myself never, because then all you do is think about what you can't have. I had been so good, but one of my friends at work got chocolates from her supplier and she came to my desk to share. I had three!!! I know you are thinking that is not that bad... but then I had a bag of M&M's and then they brought cake to celebrate a graduation of one of our techs, and I had a piece of cake AHHHH!! I was out of control!! OK now that I have confessed all my sins I feel much better... I will try my best to be better at controlling my need for sweets, this is going to be one of my biggest challenges! I am down 7 pounds so I'm happy with that... but I still have a bit more to go. I go see my NP doc tomorrow after work so I'm hoping she will have some good advise to deal with my knee and good news on all my blood work.
