Dear Diary,

As far as holding me accountable to the task at hand, I did run as promised last night. And have been faithful to the Best Life Diet in the past 3 meals. Not a major accomplishment but a good start...and good at helping me feel better about myself. It's probably no mystery that I am sufficiently lacking in self-confidence and I always feel better about the dating scene when I am more comfortable with my size. So, first thing's first, diet and exercise. It's part of the "being prepared" philosophy.

Sometimes the dating scene feels like those carnival games that you can only win with a stroke of luck. Otherwise they're completely rigged against you. They're designed to make you fail. I had a bout of discouragement today, if you hadn't noticed, but my attitude is on the rise. I have a mantra that I chant to myself while I run. And I use it here to keep myself positive and on track.

"Hang in there, kid!" Lol, it's not much for a mantra, but for some reason, calling myself kid gives me an added boost of endurance. :)

So, here's to seeing what tomorrow holds...
