Is that a bear??....no, it's just my stomach growling..

*sigh* Today is a struggle so far.  So much going through my mind today that it leaves me with that empty feeling in my stomach.  Trying to fend it off with chewing gum and drinking water.  But I'm left wanting chips/cookies/chocolate - whatever. BAD.  I will not give in but I'm at least acknowledging that stress does bring on me wanting to binge.  Why can't we want to binge on lettuce, carrots, and celery?  Why does bad food have to be so satisfying?  I know you regret it after - but how does it make you feel better in the moment???

No one ever says, man, this is a tough day, let me get my hands on some kale!  (although, actually, some kale chips sound pretty yummy right now!) That actually reminds me when we were at Hiller's the other day, they had a small container of seasoned kale chips for like $9!!! WTF! That is insane. Sure it sounded good but I can make my own for sooooo much cheaper!! Note to self: buy kale!

So we found out that we're leaving Friday for L.A. I'M GOING TO HOLLYWOOD!  I'm super excited - but still kinda stressed with trying to get life organized for while we're gone.  It's going to be so fun!!  After I get back I do want to continue this Vegan challenge though.  I like it - some things are difficult but I'm seeing the scale go down and feeling better.  I love that I'm making better choices and being more aware.  I know it's only been a couple days but I feel in control (other than the stress getting to me a little today) :)
