The hormones are raging and I am suffering from some serious p.m.s. symptoms in the form of desiring all kinds of awful foods. Sweet, salty, greasy.. and the resistance was not entirely possible.

I went into Sidney this evening for a meeting.  Jade wandered the market, and came back with one of my favourite treats: a Hungarian langos; fried bread with sugar and just a wee bit of cinnamon.  I totally didn't even question it.  He's always been quite intuitive and has consistently brought me things that I want or need without ever mentioning it.  I'm not sure if it's because he knows me so well, or simply responds to hormones and pheromones on an instinctual level, but he sure is sweet to me when he wants to be.

We had it out this afternoon, but I came hope to a beautiful roast beef dinner; one of my favourite meals.  Even though it is not the healthiest, I can proudly say that I did watch my portions.  They were a little bigger than I've been having lately, but, c'est la vie.  I think I needed it.. my metabolism seems to have been kickstarted again and is in "go" mode.

I did give in to a bit of late night snacking, too.  It's okay, though.. nothing too awful.  A small bowl of tortilla chips and some salsa.. and a couple small slices of garlic sausage.  I still feel hungry.

I've begun adding some minor strength training into my regime with my dumbbells.  I've only got arm curls, and the one where you hold it behind your head at the moment.  I must research some good toning exercises to do with them.

I got a good walk in this morning (and was late for work because of it.. stupid buses not being on schedule.) If I had simply taken the route I usually walk, it would have been no problem.  Instead, however, I followed the bus route which takes about twice as long.  First came early and I missed it, so I figured I'd walk to the next stop.. then the second one came WAY early and I missed it too.  By the time the third one rolled past, I was 2 minutes away from my shop. Oh well.. no use stressing about that.

Anyway, lots to do tonight, so I think I'll end this here. I'm feeling productive, and very positive about what's to come.
