well work is crazy today but my hands are warm and at one time I was actually warm! lol wore a sweater today and almost - now I did say almost - wanted to take it off. . .didn't as I'm smarter than that! but it was nice for the moment. I'm heading to the gym for some crosstraining tonight. probably the bike and some core work. I think the herbs are doing the trick and the scale was again good to me - I keep a daily record for tracking purposes but only "count" it once per week and that won't be until next wednesday. But I'll be thrilled if it keeps going like it is. I won't hold my breathe, but it sure would be great! going to keep this blog short because I really need to get going to the gym. eating was great today again - no extra cravings at all - this part really is making me happy because I could do so well then have a craving and fall off hard, so no crazy cravings really does make a difference for me. Oh, and I also noticed that i'm not so hungry - I used to be starved by 10 am snack time and lately I realize at 11 that I forgot to get my 10 am snack. strange. I did switch back to eating oatmeal for breakfast in the am - during the colder months I do find that oatmeal seems to hold me over better, so perhaps that could be the reason for not being so hungry at 10??? I'll continue to keep tracking to see how it all goes. so far so great!
