Chocolate & Cupcakes.

Today is valentines day, as all of you already know. I got a little basket from my Dad filled with chocolates and candy, and I bought my mom and sister mini cupcakes from Crumbs in NYC. I have been going nuts! Yesturday, when I got all this stuff I really was level headed. However, cupcakes are just my weakness. I adore cupcakes. They are cute, and pretty and fun. I just like looking at them. I got them a package of 12 mini cupcakes all decorated for Vday. I ate 3! UGH! I mean, they are only 100 calories each, and I took off most of the frosting, but crap. I didn't want to eat sweets this week, my one year is on FRIDAY!

Anywho, I knew today I needed to redeem myself, but, I had the worst chocolate craving, and with abunch of boxes of it everywhere I look in my house, I had to cave, I mean it's valentines day for fucks sake. I decided to do the right thing and have a 1 oz peice of dark chocolate. It was so good, and totally took my craving away. There is no point in having 2 really bad days in a row when my one year is on Friday. Thats for sure. And other then my 65 calorie peice of dark chocolate, I have been having a wonderful day with my eating. It is gorgeous out today, I can't wait to get outside later for a jog.

Speaking of my one year, unfortunatly, I am not going to reach my goal of 60 pounds lost. Unless I magically lose 4 pounds in 3 days. Not going to happen, however I am so proud. I haven't given up once this year. The weight will come off, I just need to keep doing exactly what I am doing. Looking at the bigger picture, it's okay Im only 4 pounds off from my goal, I did a great job in my first year of my change, and this is just the begining. This will be a life long journey and I know that.

I hope everyone has a wonderful valentines day!
