wassonc's Journal, 01 August 2012

Ok, still stressed out. This is getting ridiculous.

Got the guts to step on the scale yesterday and it said 111.6 .... so I have lost a little, which is surprising since I have all but given up on tracking my calories. Although, I have been paying attention to portion control, and I have been making an effort to eat whole foods (i.e. rice, beans, potatoes, lean meats) rather than processed foods (i.e. chips, ice cream, etc) which not only saves us money but allows us to eat healthier by default.

I also went from not sleeping at all to sleeping non-stop, I hate how stress messes with your body!!!

Other than running (which I have FINALLY started doing again) I am crocheting to ease stress.

This is what I was working on (found the pattern via Pinterest)







But then I ran out of green yarn so instead of buying more yarn I used some yarn from a failed project that I already had laying around and started this afghan (which hubs is a HUGE fan of)







Of course I just realized that I have a baby blanket for a little nephew that is coming soon that I need to crank out, LOL

And I will post a picture of my new hair soon... perhaps this weekend?

Things I am grateful for:
- my marriage
- my stamina
- the puppy
- the ability to crochet afghans for my home
- coffee
- sleep
