I did it!!!

 This is going to be a short post.  But I just wanted to come on here and give my daily report.  Ok, and a little extra something.


I am still holding steady with my efforts.  I’m not eating perfectly, but I am eating better than I was.  Furthermore, I am eating in a way that is sustainable.  There are no huge restrictions. There have been bo dinners of dry lettuce leaves.  I am eating normally but I am making better choices.  I am declining the junk food that I done really need.  But I admittedly have indulged in some sweet treats!

I have decided to make my official weigh in on Friday mornings.  I was thinking Saturday but Saturdays are a crapshoot of when we get moving, when I shower, eat, get dressed, etc.  Fridays are more routine and that is what I want!

So…..today is Friday.   And even with only small baby steps toward health, I managed a loss!   2.1 pounds to be exact!!!!   Go me!!!

That is awesome! And I love your new approach to eating. Overly restrictive always ends up backfiring for me. I don't see an occasional sweet treat as something to regret or feel guilty about: it's a small source of happiness, and as long as it fits into an otherwise healthy diet, go for it! So happy that you are back on track and had a good weigh in today.

Fantastic!! My diet? I calorie count & eat the foods I like just less of them. Like you, I try to pick foods that are not crap. I am glad this week went well. Tomorrow is my weigh in. I worked hard this week. I hope there is a loss after last week gain.

I know that eating for me has to be fluid and sustainable. Vowing to never have such and such is NOT sustainable for me.

I'm trying to get myself into the habit of reminding myself that food is fuel. I can still have the yummy sweet treats, but only after I have fueled my body properly.
