Day 40 - Chocolate Devil!! (14/16 ... not as snug)

The past few days have been chocolate covered days.  Jamie bought some dark chocolate for me on Saturday...upon my request...and I just had some chocolate turtles from the grocery store.  OH, and I've had 2 energy drinks this week and 2 giant cans of Xing Sweet Tea ... nectar of the gods...haha.  So, I need to slow my roll on all that sugar.  On the up side, my pants are ever so slightly less tight...I'm not going to say they are loose, but they are definitely not cutting off my circulation anymore.  Tonight will be another attempt at the Spartacus workout...on my own this time :(  It's so much easier with a workout buddy.  I haven't been tracking my food very well the past few days, but I'm fairly certain I've been within my range.  I haven't really been eating a ton or anything.  I guess I'm learning to control my portions a little better.  We did have a frozen pizza on Sunday, but I only had one slice.  My appetite has been a bit lacking...except when it comes to sugary things.  So, I don't want to backslide, therefore I must get my booty into the gym more.  I am full of good excuses to NOT exercise though!  I gave myself a pass from the gym yesterday since I was running on 4 hours of sleep.  I didn't think it would do me much good to go in there exhausted from the get go.  Tomorrow I'll have a regular packed lunch again instead of the pasta salad I've had the past 2 days...bleck...no more pasta salad.  Luckily, I made it myself, so it only had light italian dressing in it with a bit of reduced fat feta cheese and black olives.  Tomorrow I'll be back to sammiches and carrots.  Why does the gym have to be such a daunting task...whyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy??????????
