A Bad Start...
Tuesday, March 16, 2010 Edit This 0 Comments »
My new attempt at weight loss is off to a BAD start... and for two reasons!
Reason 1: Weigh In was yesterday, but I forgot to weigh in, so this morning I stepped on the scales... and much to my dismay I was 600g heavier than last week! Currently weighing in at 106.5 I am now further from my goal than I thought...
Reason 2: Although I vowed I was on a good start to a slimmer ME yesterday, after a stressful day of work, stressful moments finishing my assignment to be submitted last night and then a long stressful evening of fixing the computer which decided to have a melt down, I gave in, in the worst possible way! After a yummy healthy, point friendly dinner, I scoffed down some chocolate with a cup of tea. And if that wasn't bad enough I had another cup of tea, this time with a big piece of choccy cake!
Although the day ended badly, I am not feeling depressed or extremely down about the above situations (although I am feeling a little guilty and silly). Instead I am trying to look at them in a positive way in order to move forward from these disasters.
Although I am heavier then first mentioned yesterday, this only gives me more motivation to try and lose weight. I am realising more and more I can not keep going up and up in weight. I need to take control of my choices and decisions and make better ones.
And although I had a chocolate party (invitation for one only) last night, it now seems quite obvious that stress is my food trigger. Now that I know this I can work on making better choices when stress rears its ugly head.
So once again, it's a new day!
I have planned healthy meals for the entire day, and I have also allowed points for two chocolate chip cookies that I have packed for work today incase a sugar craving hits this afternoon. (My challenge for the day is also to stay away from the cookie jar at work!)
Will be off to play indoor volleyball tonight, so exercise for the day will be covered and hubby and I are going grocery shopping after that to buy lots of healthy foods :)
Skinny here I come :)
