I had a bad day on Monday. Lot's of stress from lots of sources. I managed to eat well during the day. I went to the gym to work out. The crush of resolution warriors is starting to thin out already. (When do diets die - the third week of January...so say the salad bar sales).
So I worked out. But I just wasn't feeling it. My legs weren't feeling it either. After 30 minutes I just said "enough!"
That's when it fell apart. Stopped at the store, Oh, Veggie Chips are on sale - I like those! Pizza sounds good too - let's get the California Pizza that's on sale. And chocolate chip cookies - those sound REALLY good.
Went home and ate chips, pizza and cookies. In short order, I'd eaten 50 points for the day.
D'oh.
I went to my weekly meeting Wednesday expecting the worst. But the worst was " up 0.2 pounds".
Well that's no so bad.
The relief I felt was physical. I hadn't blow the whole week, it was a small set back.
So now I'm attacking the new week. The goal this week is to have 7 'blue dot days' of healthy eating. I've go the treadmill set up in the basement and was able to get in some steps throughout the day. Working in the basement I managed to knock out 14 flights of stairs over the day.
So far, on track for a much better week. And I really have come a long way. Here's a picture from not quite a year ago...
Me around 245 pounds. 18 1/2 neck and 40" waist, though that stomach was more like 44-46". |
27 pounds from goal...
