Ok one of the things I told myself I would do is actually be honest on this thing and not hide my slip ups! So I'm already at a confession! Yesterday I was great till Igot off work! My friend and I both had kinda a rough day at work so we decided to head to the mall for some retail therapy....well on our way out the dang mexican restaurant and BAR just looked so appealing! So we popped in for a quick margarita and of course you have to eat chips and salsa! Then since I had to be at work at 6:30 and did leave the restaurant till 6:20 I stopped at Mcdonalds and had a double cheeseburger and fries. :( It's ok. I still only went over on my points by about 10 which still keeps me under my weekly total. That's what I love about weight watchers! Oh I didn't do any activity either. Just the walking around the mall. Ha! It was my day off from that anyway so no big deal.
So here is the plan for today:
Breakfast- english muffin with canadian bacon, egg and low fat swiss cheese and cantaloupe
Lunch- scrambled eggs with black beans and salsa in a corn tortilla
dinner- rice, veggies and fish
Until I get my butt to the grocery store eggs are going to be a common theme!
Tonights activity- Week one day 3 of C25K
Have a great day, I know I will!
reminder
Do you ever get frustrated because things are moving too slowly in your life? Many people don't realize that building a foundation for success does not happen overnight. It is a slow process in which you are constantly working and learning. After all, that foundation must remain strong, even in times of failure or crisis. This takes time! You may have to remind yourself that "failing" is only failure if you quit; otherwise it's a learning opportunity. So don't worry if your life seems to be moving in slow motion. Concentrate on building a solid foundation and learning from your back steps
My Plan
So I've been going at this weight loss/ healthy lifestyle/ exercise/ love myself shit for years now. Seriously, when will I just get it? I am a quitter and loser. The fact that it's a couple of years later and I'm here starting over is proof positive. I've got a million and half excuses as to why I gained the weight back but not a single one of them matters. I need to do this. I need to push myself and get over the quitter mentality. I've learned that I'm a miserable person when I'm unhealthy. If anything came out of previous success it's that knowledge. Being healthy makes me happy. Simple as that. I have to do this. MY life depends on it.
I am setting a goal for myself of 5% of my body weight at a time. Since I weigh 210 pounds right now, that means 10.5 pounds is 5% of my body weight, I think....math and I have never gotten along very well. I'll try something a little different this time and figure out what 5% of each new weight is too...maybe that will keep me more motivated.
Anyway, as I meet my goals, I plan on rewarding myself! I NEVER reward myself, I wont even buy myself the right kind of shampoo half the time because I hate wasting money on me. But self help is a great thing and something to look forward to. My rewards will always non food items and always something personal.
I will also make a meal plan each saturday night, buy the groceries sunday and stick with it through the week. I will be making Brian do this with me and he will lose more weight than me and I will get jealous but that will not make me quit like it would have in the past. I will be able to fit into my clothes again. I will want to dress up and put on makeup and fix myhair again. I will feel like a human being again. And I WILL learn to love myself FINALLY!
