Day one of the weekend down

I know it is late, but I just needed to get a few things off my chest. First, I'm already getting bored with my diet. Not good. When I get bored is usually when I just start giving up. So my wife and I went to Wal-Mart and started looking for new things to include and eat instead of the plain of stuff day in and day out. The one thing that I eat every day that I never get bored of is oatmeal. I love it, plain. I never grow tired of it. We'll see what concoctions that we can come up with using the new ingredients.
Today I went to my mothers house after dropping Nichole off at work. It just so happened that they were making christmas candy. When I say they I mean my mom and my sister. Ahh the Christmas candy, it has been a tradition in my house since I was, well even before I was born. They were making homemade peanut brittle, and they had already made the Toffee and caramel. I didn't stay long because I know that if I would have, I would have ended up eating a bunch of it. Homemade is so much better than store bought in my opinion. Hopefully there is still some left in 11 days, I can't believe that Christmas Eve is in 11 days.
I was going to exercise, but really when I am home I have to do it when I get up, otherwise as the day goes on I talk myself out of it. I really should have jumped on the treadmill and taken 30 minutes and I would have been just fine, but I didn't. I actually ate pretty good today so I wasn't to worried. I just haven't felt all that great today. I woke up with a headache that stuck with me until about 8:30 tonight and then "poof" what do you know it's all better. Oh well, I will just watch what I eat all day tomorrow. I just really need to stay stong, I just really want to fall back into my old ways but I know that even if I do, just for one day, that I will not get back on track and I will be back to what I always do. There is a quote that I heard way back when that has always stuck with me it says, "If you keep doing what your doing, you'll keep getting what your getting." In this case I don't want to keep getting what I am getting, I want to get what I have always wanted to get, healthy, strong, and able to do anything. Well it's time to turn in.

keep up the hard work. Exercising in morning can be tough. Keep trying. After about 7 days your body gets used to it and it gets much easier. Great job on keeping to your diet! Diet is 70% of battle.
