Refocusing

I've been struggling the last few weeks/months.  I have no problem getting sufficient workouts in, but the introduction of more carbs back in to my diet has led me to indulge more than I should, so I'm refocusing as of today.  I got on the scale this morning and I haven't moved much at all in the last month.  I haven't been logging my food and exercise, so I'm starting that up again today.  I have been cleaning up after my kids (like a human garbage disposal) and I'm STOPPING that today!  I've been indulging in foods that I KNOW are not going to benefit my health or body at all and I'm STOPPING that today too!  I'm going back to the elimination of all rice, pasta, bread, crackers, cookies, etc.  These type of foods and their glycemic indexes are not benefiting me at all.  If anything, they are destroying the results I've been working so hard to achieve.  I start bootcamp again the middle of April and can't wait to get going again.  I know I'm getting stronger, I know I'm burning calories, but I need to REALLY stay focused on my goals.  I sometimes think I get over confident here and there and slack on my healthy eating.  Today and going forward, WILL be different.  I WILL make my health a priority.  My next goal is to be under 200 lbs by my 30th birthday (July 23rd).  That doesn't leave me much time and if I'm going to achieve that goal, I NEED to be diligent about journaling, measuring, and being honest with myself.  Today is a new day.  It's the first day of the rest of a better life!
