I am hungrier than usual this morning, even though I had a hearty breakfast. The work sweets are still lingering around the office....tempting, but I haven't had any yet. I went online this morning and looked at a bunch of nutritional charts at restaurants - I anticipate that I will be eating out at restaurants more than usual when I fly back to my hometown next week for the holidays, and I want to be armed and ready with nutrional value-knowledge.

Last night I went to the grocery store and bought two different kinds of 100 calorie packs, as well as 100 calorie mini-popcorn bags and reduced fat string cheese. I made shrimp and veggie stir fry last night and not only was it delicious (I added lots of yummy Indian spices to it), it was totally filling! Normally I would have eaten it with pasta, but instead of the pasta, I added a few extra kinds of veggies to it. So far I'm pretty proud of myself for cutting out those carbs and finding a healthier solution.

There are MORE goodies at the office today!! AHH! I was so proud of myself yesterday - I didn't have ANY of the cake or brownies that were brought in. I'm going to keep up my good streak and not have any of the new goodies that were brought in today. Also, I am going grocery shopping tonight to buy more healthy stuff (lots of veggies!).

In other news, I am feeling really emotionally exhausted with my mother. I have reached the point in our relationship where I no longer can invest any more of myself in trying to help her get healthy (both physically and mentally). As they say, "You can lead a horse to water. But you can't make them drink." I can't help her if she won't help herself. And it's been a tough pill for me to swallow. Although we live 776 miles away from each other, she is still able to bring me down emotionally. I am no longer going to allow her to have that power over me. I have a great boyfriend and a cat that I love like he's my own baby, so I'm moving forward, even if that means without her and the relationship we once had.

Have a great day!! -Nat
