OK, taking a minute to actually smile
It just really hit me that I haven't smoked in 7 weeks. Can not believe it!!!!!! I take this one day at a time... I just can't freaking believe it's been 7 whole weeks. My last cigarette wasn't even a good one, LOL. I didn't even tell myself it would be the last one! Thank god for patches. I need to write to Nicoderm CQ and tell them they are SAINTS! I am about to step down to the final step in the next day or so.. it's just unbelievable. 8 years of smoking and I'm finally almost an ex-smoker. So fucking proud of myself right now.
I am hoping that maybe I tacked on some weight because I haven't been drinking enough water. I have been drinking so much green tea that I guess I wasn't getting enough water. Today I had my 6 cups of cold, plain tea.. and then I made more of an effort to drink water too. Tomorrow/today I am filling up a bunch of water bottles because I seem to drink way more water out of a bottle than a cup. No idea why but that's what I've noticed. Plus the bottles mean less dishes to wash - ALWAYS a plus in this house.
Got some exercise + stretching in. Sittin' here with another cup of kleri tea and reheated organic grilled chicken strips w snap peas, garlic and spinach. Brewing my 6 cups of green tea for tomorrow (I let it get cold overnight). I was looking at buying something really sexy to wear but it's going to take forever to be able to pull that off and feel good about it. It's one thing to be plus sized, it's another to have a gut the size of Montana. If this shit would just flatten out I wouldn't even care if I was over 200 lbs.. I'd rock that shit. True story.
It also hit me tonight that I get to see Justin in a matter of days. So fuckin' exciiiiiiited!!! He said he is going to marry me whether I like it or not... haha! His phone interview went pretty well today. Can't wait until Wednesday when he hears back from them. It sounds like a much better opportunity and I'm praying he gets some good news :)
