Mini cheats here and there

This has been a rough ass week. I have never felt this crabby doing SB as I have this week. I'm not sure if it's the weather, the stress from drill week, or the lack of carbs. I have had a couple little carb boosts here and there - a couple croutons in my salad, a couple bites of a yummy bagel yesterday, and SF candy that I'm eating too much of but it's a nice change of pace - but otherwise I'm sticking pretty well on this.

The only thing is, I don't know that I'm losing anything. It's just making me crabby. I will say that my new KOR water bottle is awesome and I'm drinking a LOT more water. I've cut down my soda intake from 3 or 4 a day to 1 (with the exception of yesterday when I had 3 - not good, i'll be better today).

I'm going back to the thought of trying Ideal Protein. It's worked so well for Bridget and I'm so inspired by her success, there are just things on that program I don't like - no dairy, no bread at all (ever).

The thing is, I know what I shouldn't eat. I know what I should eat. I do do that, with a few exceptions. Why I'm not losing, I'm not sure. It could be that I'm not getting enough cardio in. I haven't worked out since Thursday due to work and just pure exhaustion (I came home Friday night and could barely move - asleep by 8:45 - sheesh).

I need to figure out something. I'll let this run it's course the next couple weeks and see if it helps. I've taksed MS to get no sugar added fudgcicles since I can't have popcorn (that was torture last night) and we'll see if that helps. I really need to get some jello made too. And I'll keep drinking water.

I just wish the pounds would drop off like they did the first time. Maybe I need to cleanse or something. Ugh. I don't know. Just a little frustrated right now.
