Philippians 3:12-14 (The Message Bible)

I'm not saying that I have this all together, that I have it made. But I am well on my way, reaching out for Christ, who has so wondrously reached out for me. Friends, don't get me wrong: By no means do I count myself an expert in all of this, but I've got my eye on the goal, where God is beckoning us onward—to Jesus. I'm off and running, and I'm not turning back.

R2-Day 2

Well, for the most part, today was a sucessful day. I ate healthy for breakfast and lunch. Then my neice (who is just 5 years younger than me) and I laid out by the pool for an hour or so before I came in and did Plyo X (and burned 317 cal). Apparently in the past month, I've completely lost my tan becuase I got BURNT today! It's all good though...I'd rather be red than white. Eventually it'll turn brown. (I know, that's bad for my skin...:o()
Anyway, I knew I needed to get Plyo in early because we had plans to go out for Mexican for dinner tonight and that's always a tough one. I have no problem ordering something healthy--it's the chips and salsa that "kill" me. I think I did reasonably okay tonight though. I ordered a small bowl of tortilla soup as my entree...but I did probably half of a basket of chips with salsa. Eeek! At least I didn't eat 2 baskets full--which is what I used to do! Also, no dessert for me--just a stick of gum. Now its time for bed.....ahhhh! My favorite time of the day!

I have such good intentions when I eat Mexican (and believe me, it's hard. I AM Mexican but don't indulge in what tastes SO good, but i know is sooo bad for me). Usually I orde rfish tacos for my entree. By then, though, I've already had at least one margarita and at least one basket of chips. At least the salsa is good for us - lots of antioxidants in those tomatoes - ha!

And at least I only go out for Mexican food once a month, on my dinner date w/ my cousin.

Mexican is a major weakness for me too. I eat tons of chips and salsa too!
