Back ....

I'm back from vacation. I've actually been home (and eating like crazy!) for two weeks. But today I'm pulling myself out and getting back on track to my Christmas goal. Michigan was great, despite a few altercations with my father. Perhaps altercation is too strong a word...what I did notice was that I am continually disappointed with him. I also noticed my insecurities popping up in a paranoid manner...but more on that another time.

Back to the bad eating. While I was in the States, I did not eat entirely the right things. But I didn't outright binge, either. I did sneak sugar snacks, though. Since returning to Sweden, I've been bingeing more. I think it's a response to my disparity (is that even a word?) about being here. The jet lag lasted a week, so the first week back is a bit of a blur, and I basically just ate to get through the day. Last week I took a photography class (it was too beginner for me, but fun none the less), so my schedule was more hectic than usual. This week, though, I have no excuses for not getting back on track! :-)

My plan of attack will be to eat no more really bad foods. This week I will allow myself yogurt with berries for breakfast, and perhaps one piece of bread for lunch. And Atkins bars. Next week I'll phase out the bread and start back on rigorous exercise.
