| February 14, 2009 My mother sent me some Reese's Peanut Butter hearts for Valentine's Day. I know that I should not be eating these right now but they are so delicious, and it is a holiday. Once the bag is finished I will go back to my diet of sorts. At least I am getting my calcium by drinking a cup of milk with them. February 21, 2009 I wore the clothes that I bought from Banana Republic the other night to a party. They were part of my shopping reward for meeting my first goal. It was a really positive night for me. My friends loved my outfit and I knew personally that I had earned this reward. It just drives me to be diligent in keeping my promises to myself. I am looking forward to more rewards in the future. | | |
| I have realized that goals my goals are more difficult to maintain as time goes on. I did not even consider breakfast this morning as I dashed out of the house to make it to my 7:30 class. This does not do anything whatsoever to help my overall goal of healthier eating. I also don't place as much emphasis on my personal goals as I so my academic goals. This is my major conflict. I need to appreciate my body enough to treat it with as much respect as I contribute to other endeavors. I plan to continue these goals in the future. Hopefully it works.

| I worked a concession stand yesterday for the Dance department at UF and it was very difficult to avoid all of the junk food. I ended up having a cheeseburger, which kept me from indulging in the snack foods. While I did overcome this trial, I also broke one of my earlier goals. I did not even make it a week being clean from sodas. I actually consider it somewhat ironic how it happened. Along with making soda one of my goals for this class, I gave it up for Lent as well. I happened to be at my friend's Bat Mitzvah on Saturday and there was an open bar. I was very disciplined and did not imbibe in alcohol. In my effort to avoid the alcohol, I drank some Mountain Dew to supplement that. In mid-sip I realized that I was breaking Lent in the Jewish center...ironic, I know. I didn't even make it a week, but no matter. I am back on the wagon now.

| It is getting harder to maintain my goals. I had two grilled cheese sandwiches for dinner last night, but that was not necessarily my healthiest option. I only just made it to the grocery store last night after about a week and a half. I have decreased my soda intake to a point where I am only consuming lemonades and juices from the soda fountain. Last night I purposefully stockpiled my natural juices and fruits so I can meet my sugar cravings in a natural way. I should be on track to meet my no soda goal by Wednesday. I will update...

| I definitely broke my diet on Valentine's Day, but I feel that it was deserved. I have gotten myself to a point where I can relax on holidays and such. My holiday was filled with many Reese's hearts and other candies, so I will try to lay off of the refined sugars for a while. In other news, I supplemented my own breakfast and lunch from home and did not resort to the Reitz Union. Granted, my lunch was a Publix sub sandwich, but it contained fresh ingredients on wheat bread with modest amounts of fat. I need to buckle down and cook for myself this week. I might be getting a little behind. Until the next meal; Adieu. | | |
