I’ve been avoiding my blog. I do this when I don’t have anything happy to write, which is stupid, since I use this blog in lieu of therapy and who needs therapy for happy stuff?
I’ll be back later tonight. I’m no longer MIA. Not that anyone is reading this, LOL, but I like to pretend! ahahahahah!

I’ve picked up some old habits again. The main one being snacking alone at night after the kids go to bed. Sigh.
Since this habit is usually stress-induced, it’s time for a little self-reflection. And since you’re my lucky readers, you get to come with me!
Okay, what’s bothering me?
1. I’m plateauing like a mother right now. I am extremely frustrated with this. I’ve ramped up my exercise like crazy and yet, no weight is coming off. I think my middle is smaller, but I don’t really know. I did buy my first ever size L shirt, tho. That was nice.
2. I’ve made the decision that I will become a personal trainer yet can’t accomplish my own goals. How am I supposed to help anyone else? This one is particularly nuts because I don’t plan on even starting on certifications until next year. I’ve got lots of time, yk?
Three friends of mine have given me pep talks and while I’m feeling a bit better, I’m still not feeling in control. I still feel like as soon as I’m alone, I’ll stuff my face.
What are you really hungry for, Brianne?
Success. Size 8 jeans. Perspective, since I seem to have temporarily lost mine. Courage. Perseverence. Belief in myself. Clarity.

Have I neglected my blog or what? I’m so bad at consistency! I’m still on track–just summer is so busy and full! Here’s a quick overview of what I’ve been up to:
weight: hovering around 186-187lbs.
Fitness: two high-intensity workouts, one boot camp and 2 running sessions a week. I’ll write more about the HIM class soon!
Night-time snacking: doing better at keeping it in check–not perfect but an improvement.
New breakfast: Chocolate oats! YUM! To cooked oatmeal, add 1.5 teaspoons of Dutch process cocoa and sweetener of choice to taste. I use splenda right now.
that’s all for now, but I’ve got lots to share!
