It's Friday Again

Hi All,
    Hope everyone is feeling as good as I am. This is the best I've felt all week and looking forward to the weekend. Yesterday went well with no major issues or challenges. That's the best that could be said this week. I'm more focused on Saturday right now. I have a job interview and would really like it to go well. I have more than a little interest in working for this company. So, that's where all my focus currently directed. I know that I should probably be more focused on my diet but I'm not, not today anyways. It's not easy trying to change your life style at the same time as having to look for work. Both are important, one is about your physical well being and the other your mental well being. Everyone needs to feel a value to who they are and for most of us that's the work we do. It's more than just that we are working. In my case as a father and husband it affects how I feel being able to support my family. I believe that to be successful one has to have a balance between the two. For me It's changing what and how I eat as well as keeping positive about looking for work. Both have specific goals fro me too achieve. So, I'll keep my fingers crossed and hope that my interview tomorrow goes as well as the last three weeks have gone for my diet.

    Changing the subject, next week is Super Bowl Sunday. I'm feeling a bit anxious about that cause I usually spend the day in front of the T.V. with a large Nacho boat filled to the brim. Of all the things that I've changed, this is a tradition that I really enjoy. After all Nachos them selves aren't that bad. It's corn chips covered in veggies with some meat, cheese and salsa. Most of those ingredients aren't so bad. I suppose I could look for some Nacho chips made from whole wheat (do they make them?) and some low fat cheddar cheese. Instead of ground beef, I guess lean ground turkey and maybe a smaller portion. As you could guess by now, this is a tradition I'd really like to keep and It should be possible. The idea here is not to give up everything you love, it's to make better choices with the foods we eat. I think I've done that here by restricting myself in portion size and improving some if the items that I choose to add to the dish. In the end a healthier treat and a tradition saved. I know it's only been about 4 weeks but I am beginning to feel like I can do accomplish my goals in the long run.

Have a good one, keep strong and don't let little setbacks keep you from your goal!

Thanx,
Looper
