Reassessment of goals

Need to reassess what i'm doing. I am feeling too deprived and restricted. So I've decided to open up my options with my diet so I can stay committed to it.

Today went well. I felt that I had a lot of energy this morning, even though I didn't sleep well due to my fiance's loud snoring. I did a 3 mile Leslie Sansone workout (45 minutes of walk/aerobics). I figure I should ease into the exercise so I don't feel too drained by the end of the day. Because I had a big meal last night, I wasn't really hungry for breakfast. So I just had water for breakfast, and juice for lunch and dinner. The juice consisted of pomogranite, spinach, broccoli, and pineapple. I started having food cravings at around 5pm. I think it's because it's Friday, and usually I want to have a great meal to celebrate the hard week I had at work. I know that I am an emotional eater and I feel that every time I get a craving, I just need to pause and take a moment to acknowledge that the craving is there. It's so easy to give into the craving, but now I really want to have control of it. So, slowly, but surely, I feel that i'm taking some good steps in the right direction. My goal for tomorrow is trying to take my focus off food and just enjoying my life.

Update: Fell off the wagon a bit. I think I have to re-assess my goal and maybe do a raw food & juice diet. I think I should try this out first and then maybe get into juicing 100%. I think part of the reason why I fell off the wagon today is because I am feeling too deprived and restricted. So if I open up my options to eating raw foods as well as juicing, then at least i'm going to be still eating healthy and accomplish my goal. Feeling frustrated, but will regroup and try again tomorrow.
