Okay, this time I am back for good! 
Really!
Whenever I think I need a break from journaling I get off track. I have been super busy lately with school and life but that will slow down after next week. I have my last final next Friday so just have to bust my butt all week. I had a final today which went horribly wrong
and am hoping I do not have to take the Lab part of my class over. I'll be taking a summer class but it is an internet class 
so I figure I'll be on the computer more, I'll have time to get my journal going again. I will at the very least post my workouts and food daily.
I so need this for me. I love the support I get, and the camaraderie from everyone is wonderful.
I am reading Dr. Phils latest book and even though I just started it, it's already helping me dial into my issues and work through them. I am so tired of having food issues! I just want this to stop. No more excuses, no more rationalizing, no more crap! I deserve better!
My main goal is to be the very best ME that I can be physically, mentally and spiritually. Not be perfect, just be the best me that I can. I have a great life and I don't want to ever say "What if?" or "I wish I had" If I'm eating well (healthy, high protein, lower complex carbs, tons of veggies, some fruit) then I feel great physically and mentally and everything in my life comes together. Why has it taken me so long to get that? I want to turn my body into the very best physical specimen that it can be. I want to give myself that as a gift. I deserve it.
I have set up a food plan for myself that revolves around certain foods. Fruit is going to be something I allow myself daily, as a treat so I don't feel deprived. I just love all the summer fruits that are coming out now. Lots of veggies. Clean protein and carbs. All the clean foods that I love to eat. My main goal is to build muscle and get lean. The getting lean part is not a problem for me, it's the building muscle.
My workouts will be my daily physical therapy (this alone is very tiring, it's a continuous hour of different exercises, then20 minutes on alternate days), plus lots of weights and cardio (mostly hiking and biking outside).
I welcome any and all encouragement and suggestions on everything!
I will be more specific about my goals as I go along. I swear I'm here for good now. I would say "I'll prove it to you" but I really just want to prove it to myself!
This is long, I know, my brain just feels like it's filled with so much crap right now I have to get some of it out so I can go study.

Once your finals are over I am sure you will more time to focus on your health goals. For me finals were always stressful 
but once they are over you feel like dancing

It is so helpful! I am not sticking to it exactly, right now just working on consistently having high protein, mod carbs and lower fat. I want to get about a month under my belt of consistency so then I can do some fine tuning.
Your diet looks yummy

You have to love finals week.
