I ended up doing a weigh in yesterday for the contest after all. I am going to stick with my Saturday weigh ins because that marks the 'weeks' since my entry video, with this being week number 2. See results here :) (please excuse how exhausted I was, the baby was up all night teething again so I'm totally not with it.) I felt I did ok, only another 1.5 down since Tuesday. That brings my two week total since my entry video to 9 lbs. I'm confident next saturday will be good as I will be able to actually move later this week. I have been literally on my fat arse since my walk on Tuesday with the girls not because the walked kicked my booty believe me I was ready to go on Wednesday.
This next week should be fun in terms of the move more always part of my plan. I have some fun things planned for the kidlets and I and my new video camera (not the best quality Im afraid but it'll do) came so I can actually do some lil clips of us which will be kinda cool. I have planned to next week walk over to a friends house who lives 3 miles one way so thats a great goal. Ill have hubby bring the wee ones in the car and then the kids can go for a swim at their house. Their beach is sooo much nicer than ours the kids prefer to swim there.
I have been eating what I want, I know, I know prolly not the worlds best diet plan but hey, its still working :)))... Ive just been eating less of what I make and in some instances substitutions. Like when I made burgers mine was turkey theirs beef. But I still had cole slaw, etc... just not enough to feed three men. This morning (in the oven as I type) I have made my caramel sticky bunz, and I intend to have one. Heres my thought behind this... its not only that I am trying to learn how to just eat like a normal person, its that I am a brat and when I deny myself I can only seem to do it for so long before I collapse and go off plan. When that happens I feel like crap about myself, my resolve and my ability and it takes me longer to recover from it. I have found by eating what I want... in "normal" portions, I dont feel the panic. I dont fail myself.
Hope everyone is having a wonderful weekend thus far :) *hugs* to all...

I think it's okay to taste and have some of this and that and most importantly savor and enjoy those naughtier foods.
ReplyDeleteImportant caveat to that is to keep the portions reasonable and to eat slowly, chew a little extra so you that you eat a smaller amount over a longer period of time and feel more satiated.
I have a bad habit of inhaling my food. Healthy or unhealthy I attack my plate like someone is going to steal it if I don't hurry. Learning to slow down has been hard but it helps.
I can relate to a lot of your feelings on food Honey B. One day at a time, it will get easier.
Congrats on the 9 pounds!

Wow, you've been shrinking while I was away! Good job, HoneyB! I'm proud that you've found a diet balance that works for you.
