Feeling lazy today but that doesn't mean that I can't control what is going in my mouth

I made it through my hard day. I ended it with a giant turkey burger, no mayo and extra mustard and I had enough point to indulge in some fried zucchini. I have done yoga 4 days this week and will hopefully finish this week with 5 days. Day 1 was a beast, I have never been so week, just sitting up properly on the floor through yoga has been a challenge bc of my lack of core. I push myself though, I know that all of this light yoga is going to do wonders for my core, flexibility, and balance.
 Every day I come up with more super yummy low cal foods. Today I came up with a spinach and artichoke dip with low cal cheese and greek yogurt and had it with sour dough toast.
I keep thinking that maybe I should come up with a number for a more long term goal but I am scared to. Everytime I come up with a big number is in intimidating. And since I have never been smaller than 164 in my adult life I don't know what weight will look good on me, or I guess what would make me feel comfortable and happy. Also if I go gaining a bunch of muscle I don't know what number will be right? So I will make it down to 164 and then probably set another short term goal of maybe another 15 pounds and go from there? Right now, 164 seems so close and I feel great about it. I know it will come soon. I'm staying strong.
Something that has been really hard, I want to have dessert after dinner but I usually end up with just a few points after dinner so lately I actually have been satisfying my craving with a V8 light or diet fruit drink and a banana, the juice satisfies my sweet tooth and bananas are just my favorite fruit, i usally have 2 a day. I think I will maybe try a banana and pudding with some light whip tonight. Smoothies have also saved me. I make so many different kinds I don't think I can get bored. Mango, orange, strawberry, pineapple, banana, blueberry in all different combos have been my fav. add a little agave or honey or oj.
Tonight I'm going to make mozzerella filled chicken meatballs and whole wheat spaghetti with my own sauce.
Still need to be better about water intake, but I have been writing down everything i'm eating and that helps my diet stay together. can't wait to get on the scale monday and see how I have done. That is all I have right now bc fitting in clothing changes probably won't happen for a couple more weeks.
