Attitude:
Wow, you know the saying "dance like no one is watching"? Everyone should try it! My workout today was so relaxing and energizing. I danced to some of my favorite songs (I made a playlist on iTunes that lasted 30 minutes) and it was so liberating to just move uninhibited. Of course Selah joined me and got her workout, too. Another good day. I missed my afternoon snack...I wasn't hungry and didn't think about it until close to dinner when I was starving. I didn't succumb to temptation and just waited for dinner, but I won't be forgetting that afternoon snack again if I can help it! At least for now I'm only going to keep track of carbs as that's what my focus is. Should I hit a plateau or something else happens, I'll reevaluate my charting.

5 things I’m grateful for:
1. LOST - a really great escape
2. HHT - he puts up with me watching LOST and even tries to occasionally understand
3. great selection of music in the world
4. Selah's naptime - it's so peaceful and quiet
5. warm showers and that squeaky clean feeling

5 things I did right:
1. didn't give in to eat something I shouldn't after I forgot my afternoon snack
2. went to bed at the right time
3. woke up on time - early even
4. prepared a healthy and yummy dinner
5. read books to Selah
