Wednesday Weigh in 221.5 lbs

Today I saw 221.5 lbs which actually surprised me. Yesterday I had an exam, and I ended up binge eating. I stuck to my good foods (no flour, no sugar, no white starch) - but volume wise, I was eating to calm my nerves for my exam.

I started out with a 2 egg omelet instead of my 1 egg omelet with a yogurt.

I then had a papaya, and another yogurt

I then had two low fat chicken burgers with low fat mayo (no bread)

I then had a handfull of blueberries.

Then I wrote my exam

Came back and had a skew of chicken and veggies from the BBQ and sauteed mushrooms at 8:30pm at night (so I ate late as I was out of the house until late).

I seemed to have a need yesterday to stuff down the nerves with food. I also was worried that I'd have low blood sugar during the exam and that would affect my ability to use my brain.

The CEBS exam went as well as any CEBS exam does (they have a lot of tricky worded questions with double negatives that mean a positive to trip you up; anybody who writes a CEBS exam will back me up and say they are not straight forward, and you can get questions wrong in subjects you know well because of the wording of the questions, it's like they are playing some cruel mind game with you and not testing your knowlege but your ability to know the subject and do word puzzles).

I'll find out in June how I did. I think I passed (A pass is 70%). I hope so, as I get a pay raise after I pass this exam! I studied for 4 days straight!

Today's goal is to get out for my walk (if it does not rain) - even if it does rain - I can go to the mall and walk around the mall a few times! (no excuses). My second goal is not to binge on any food today. Keep it real!

Namaste
