I finally feel confident I am actually losing weight because of my calorie deficit - so I committed to logging it.

I gave up diet soda for Lent today. I am not even Catholic, but I thought I should use this opportunity to just do it! Drinking and logging coffee and water for the first time in my life.

I feel amazing because... I started my morning off with 5:30am yoga. I realized - this is my first yoga class of the year. This is my first yoga class as a sober nonsmoker. It has been at least six months and thirty pounds ago since the last class. To look on the bright side - I am burning more calories because my extra body weight helps.

My friend canceled our plans to go shopping after work so I am excited to do yoga again tonight with my favorite instructor Sue - I've taken her classes for years and I love her style the most - unfortunately - I compare all other yoga classes to hers and none of the others measure up to hers for me.

My husband is out of town so I blasted my EDM music as I showered. My daughter didn't have class today so I was able to drive my own car to work. (Hers is in the shop)

My only dilemma at this time is work is throwing a pizza party - I brought my meal replacement shake for lunch, and I am heavily debating if I should have just one bite of pizza (or at least eat the toppings without the crust) or stick to my March Madness fasting/shake/salad meal plan I invented. I can always have a whole pizza when I get back from Hawai'i in April. I will let you know tomorrow what I decide.

I pushed myself to walk an additional 15 minutes on the treadmill yesterday. I wasn't walking as fast as I normally do but I did walk longer. I could still hear my inner lazy b*tch screaming at me over the podcast I was listening to. She wanted to know why I was exercising, she told me it was pointless and I should just stop. I agreed for a moment but I kept going and ignored her the best I could.

Afterwork, my daughter and I went to the local gym and we signed up for a month's membership AND we signed up for the Aqua Zumba class last night. It was a lot of fun. My arms were already tired 5 minutes into it but I made it all the way through the class. Having my daughter there made the experience so much more delightful. She insisted we go back to the gym this morning so I packed my gym bag last night so all I had to do was wake up early and go.

I pulled my old playlist up from 2 years ago and walked for about half an hour, with intermittent stretch breaks in between. My daughter would jog every other lap or so. I don't know why she likes jogging but she didn't get that from me.

The scale hasn't budged at all. I brought a cream cheese flavored keto meal shake with a scoop of skinny fit super youth unflavored collagen powder mixed in unsweetened almond milk for lunch and plan on eating another super salad tonight.

I am loving the feedback you all are giving me on these random thoughts I keep logging. Today's complaint is: I AM SO BLOATED. I am pretty sure it's the carbonation from the Diet Dr. Pepper I drink non-stop all day every day, and if I could just quit, my body would be happier for it... and my friend will stop telling me all of the dangers of aspartame.

My daughter is in Intro to Psych in college, she was reading the chapter on addictions and blurted out that I was right, Soda is an addiction. I told her I don't make sh*t up. But in all reality, I do make sh*t up all the time as a fiction writer. I just also do a lot of reading and researching and happen to know some things. Like, how it was really easy for me to give up cigarettes, and how every time I get a craving for one I feel satisfied after drinking Dr. Pepper Zero Sugar.

My goal this week is to drink more water. Switch my soda addiction to coffee/water instead. I am also going to push myself to work out more this week than I ever have this year.
