I'm back, I'm back, I'm back! For really real, I am back. I have been skirting the edges of a black hole, I almost fell in, but thank the Lord, I have been pulled back. It's amazing to me how difficult this fall has been, and what a slump it has put me in. But today, for the first time, I really feel like myself. Hill and I went and had a nice dinner this evening, then I made a quick trip into the Hobby Lobby next door to buy some Christmas themed ribbon for a marketing idea I have for work. I wandered around the seasonal department, looked at all the Christmas pretties and spent a lot of time inhaling fall. I realized that I am wasting a time of joy--and this time around I get the privilege to determine what that will look like. Fall does not have to be defined for me by old traditions or the way someone else has structured it in my life to this point. I have the power to make this time of year anything I want it to be. How many times in life do we really have the freedom to do this?! I am excited, and reenergized. This is MY life, right now, at this moment, and I can make it what I want--and I can make it healthier and thus happier! So back, back, back to good food. Back, back, back to being energized about exercise. I am ready to embrace the thrill of the early rush of healthy eating and living, and to continue to shed my old negativity. And really, that negativity is an old habit that I must learn to do without; it is as hard to break as old eating and couch potato habits, but as with all habits it can be replaced with new habits. I'm going to take O8willbegreat's advice and create my own Un-Pandora's box, and fill it with the things that can motivate me and make me happy. The first item to go in that box is y'all! So grateful y'all have hung in with me, and I can't wait to resume my place here.

Good grief! I feel like I've been MIA for the past week both physically and emotionally. And I miss y'all! I've had some weird hiccups in my work schedule and as mentioned previously, the change of season has brought on some depression. I've finally gotten back on the good eating train (we won't discuss tonight's Mexican food, but it could have been much worse, and as I had to skip lunch today I kind of set myself up for it.), but exercise is just the bare minimum to keep up with my challenges, and that is being done unenthusiastically at best. I feel so tired lately--not so much physically tired as emotionally tired. I need a break, and a change of scenery, I think. Hopefully in the next couple of weeks Hill and I can make a "Texodous", as we call trips to explore Texas. It'll be nice to get out of Plano and see some stuff.
So this journal is boring, unfunny, and unexciting--it is as much of a disappointment to me as it is to all of you, and I seriously thought about not posting anything, but FS is so important to my way of life now that I'm afraid if I let that slide I will let everything else slide too. I'm going to try and get my lazy tail out of bed early tomorrow and do my exercsing then--I'm hoping that getting an early start may energize me for the rest of the day. Love y'all and many ((hugs))--will be back to my Similleness soon! Until then I will have to sign this off as Similleeyore. Hee haw! Where's my tail?

True to my word, this was a great eating day. And I did have turkey breast fillets--I fried them (okay, not so great, but in a little canola oil so not so bad) using a breading made of pork rinds, flax seed meal, Old Bay seasoning, and pepper. I also baked some acorn squash with a little butter, nutmeg, cinnamon, and a tiny bit of brown sugar/Splenda blend (2 g of carbs/Tbsp.) and I had a little green salad on the side. It was a great dinner! I love the pork rind trick--I think it is just the best thing ever, and I never miss fried chicken because of it. I had to fight Captain Craving today as a result of my lazy habits, but usually I only have to fight for a day and then I'm fine. I have to say it felt great to be eating food I didn't have to guilty about, and it always tastes so much better. It's back to work tomorrow, which is actually a good thing--I find it much easier to resist bad habits when I have something else to occupy my mind that I don't have to make up on my own. Hope y'all have a great day tomorrow and a good new week!
