Today was actually a great day! I have been wanting to try the whole blog thing for a while, even though i'm almost done with my 4% dietbet and about 1/2 way through month 1, of my transformer. 

I'm hoping that the blog will end up being a form of accountability for me, as well as a little bit of an outlet instead of eating. When stressted, upset, etc. my normal routiene would be to eat as much as possible to take the sting away. Unfortunately, I don't have someone who I can talk to about these feelings, and sugar quickly became my friend. 

But anyway, here's to new habits, moving forward and dealing with life in another manner other than stuffing my face :) 

Started the day with a dance workout, and then work. I work in a honey store, packed full of honey, candy, and other treats. (So much for putting sweets away from you when you have cravings) :P 

But I have started bringing lots to do, tons of healthy snacks, and I even have a co-worker now because of the busier seaason! Still, it is hard to walk past the samples table and not even take a glance ( I absolutely adore creamed honey, plentiful at work) 

Even still, with all these good steps I get nervous with self doubt. I have tried to loose weight for such a long time- I so crave to see the "old" me. The ballerina, the confident, proud person I was. Now, I strugle to look past my "belly bubble." But, I'm know its there, and I firmly believe that I can learn to be proud of myself for my sucessess- and failures. 

cheers
