Hummpphh

So I decided I don't feel a lot like I am on a diet. I don't feel deprived or tortured or sarved in any way, yet I am losing weight. I am sure this will plateau and I will need to step things up a bit, but for now dieting really isn't bad at all.
I do feel those junk food cravings real strong lately though, and I feel super sleepy still. Less so than yesterday, but man, I need sleep!

Anyway, yesterday I came home and went right out again. I really hate this. I feel like I get so few hours from the moment I walk in the door to the moment I fall asleep and I do not like to cram anything into that time, but I have been real excited about my friend Jen and Dave's new baby Peyton, and I really wanted to meet him. So I brought some fun penguin toys from the aquarium and went on over. It was really nice, I got to hold this teenie tiny sweet adorable,mostly sleeping baby for a long time. He is so small and so light and so totally adorable. J&D seemed like such natural parents. I definitely feel some envy in a healthy way for their ideal situation (financially sound, nice house, can spend a lot of time with their new child, etc). I am so proud of them and happy for them and I can not wait to spend more time with Peyton, and hopefully someday bring him to the aquarium! J&D had their friends Jake and Chrissy over and Dave made us buffalo burgers, which apparantly are leaner than regular burgers. I also had mine on an english muffin instead of a bun and did not take a second helping of potatos. I had a 1-point fudge bar when I got home and went to bed.

I really had every intention of getting up for boot camp this morning, but I was into a TV show, not feeling particularly sleepy and finally turned the tube off at 1035, only to be awoken by the phone at 1130 and continued to wake up throughout the night for no particular reason. I think it was 2am when I decided not to go to boot camp and reset my alarm for 630am. It was still too soon when my alarm went off, but I got up and made it to work. I knwo that now I will have to go to boot camp tomorrow and Friday, and today was the active rest day so thurs/fri will be tough, but I will make it!

I think I actually dreamt about eating last night, it was weird. I really want to pig out on some sweet and savory things, but so far have been pretty good at avoiding any binges.

Our WW meeting leader went on vacation and we are left to our own devises today, but I think we are weighing ourselves and talking food and such. I didn't bring my lunch.
