Daily Life Inside Of Weight Loss

I did well today. I did not feel the need to do a calorie check. Tomato soup for breakfast (lol). Then I made baked chips out of corn tortillas and ate them with one of my faves from Trader Joe's; Peach Salsa:
It filled me up quite a bit along with some raw baby carrots. Of course I went back for seconds but hey, how bad could it have been? 
This evening I had an orientation at school. I am trying to get back in. I finished Medical Billing in May with a 4.0 earning academic excellence and have been hard on the job search since and have not lucked up on anything. Truthfully I took that program as a last resort with the hopes it would lead to a quick steady career. But, my heart lies with Social Work and children. After much praying, waiting, planning and praying again I decided to go back to school for Human Services and Early Childhood Education.  My last time attending community college was in 2007. I had no discipline and did terrible! Because I had a history of that I was dismissed and that's what my orientation tonight was for.  I am walking threw the steps of getting back in school and securing myself with financial aid, finishing and praying to God this is where he wants me to be and I will get a JOB!! 

I have also been working on getting my hair to its natural state and thought I was cute when I took this close up picture. Then I decided to take a full length picture in the mirror...
I rarely get to look at a full body pic of myself...not too impressed. I do think I am beautiful. I have that much accomplished which is huge. You have to find the things you do like about yourself. I love my skin complexion. I am beginning a love relationship with my hair. I love my face. The rest needs to be sucked in and carved off at the gym..lol.

I know I have some real work ahead of me in lots of areas. I just want to stay true to the goals. I want to always remember what I am doing and why. I am going to sleep on why. Tomorrow I shall write a sort of love letter to myself that I can refer back to on this journey.
