Day 7 Better Me (End of week one)

So, I started my 6 Sigma Green Belt Classes today. 8am - 5pm all week. If I could trade these classes out to be used in experimental torture techniques created by the most demented third world enemies or, to be put on a tilt a whirl placed on a cruise ship in the middle of the meanest rocking ocean seas.... (motion sickness)you get the picture. These classes are mind numbingly dry but, if it helps propel my resume closer to the top of the stack and end my once fun and now pain stakingly anxious unemployment days, so be it.

This morning I had a small bowl of cereal and lots and lots and lots of coffee. I set the alarm for 4:45am and dragged myself into the shower just after 5am. Morning person I am not. I used to spring out of bed and cheerfully bounce about my apartment but not anymore. I'm pretty much incoherent till after consuming 12ozs of very strong coffee. My coffee has been described as rocket fuel, so thick you need scissors to snip it off at the pot, chunky and stomach scorch to name a few. I've never met anyone who actually likes my coffee only a select few who tolerate it.

I woke up 2 and a quarter hours before I had to leave for class and was still 25 minutes late in getting there. What!!?? We'll try again tomorrow. I can't be late. There's only three of us in class it's not like I can sneak in the back and because I was the last to arrive I have the front & center desk. Nice.

Ate half of my lunch hotel lunch of a chicken caesar wrap but ate all the fries. Had two small snack and a salad for dinner. I'm still a bit over for the day and had absolutely no exercise so, I guess I'm at 2.5 break even mark. I'll weight myself in the morning. My goal was to lose three lbs but this week derailed so bad, I'll be happy with any loss and no gain. Which reminds me. My goal is to lose a total of 27 lbs. Inside of those 27 lbs I have mini goals. 5lbs. then 15 lbs. are my first mini goals. Also, I'd like to lose my 27 lbs. by January 25, 2010. This averages out to about 1.5 lbs. per week. If you calculate in the degree of difficulty during the holidays, it's a pretty tall order.

1 - 5 I'm at a 2.5 today
