Another bad day food wise. I'm not even entirely sure why this time - I wasn't actually that stressed. I guess it's just that being a little into this now, my motivation is slipping a little and so I'm finding it harder to resist temptation. I need to make an effort to (a) get my motivation back up again (b) find ways to avoid tempting situations!
So, yesterday's commitments -
- Log everything I eat
- ABSOLUTELY NO unhealthy snacks including the donuts or chocolate hobnobs my colleague brought in. They are NOT ALLOWED!! I ate the hobnobs....ffs
- At friend's house for dinner have sensible portion sizes This happened though I can't really claim credit for it, I was GIVEN a tiny portion (and hence ended up snacking later because small portion + wine = massive hunger
- No alcohol
- 30 min lunch break
- Meditate
- Order swimming costumes and NY tickets online
- Be productive in work time and don't get bogged down - accept imperfection! Actually quite proud of myself for this at least!
- Stick to plan and don't get sucked into other things
- Stay calm: if get stressed then reframe thoughts/ get tea/ listen to music
Today's commitments:
- Log everything I eat
- NO unhealthy snacks, I mean really none!
- No food at free lunch buffet - have taken my own
- No alcohol
- Go to gym
- Stay within calories with 500 deficit (no eating back of gym calories)
- Be productive in work time and don't get bogged down - accept imperfection!
- Stick to plan and don't get sucked into other things
- Stay calm: if get stressed then reframe thoughts/ get tea/ listen to music

Well, since weds we've had grandsons here, so my eating was terrible. And now, too many leftovers. Not bad stuff - but a lot of fruit cups, crackers, etc. So I will try to eat them in moderation.
I've also been so busy getting outside chores done -staining fences, stairs, etc. I will be glad to get my normal routine back, and get back going to the gym. But until that happens... my goals will be simple
1. get back to logging all my food
2. concentrate on drinking water -- develop new and better habits. Grab a glass of water, not a glass of diet pepse
3. stay positive2 -

Just for today, 10/20...
- Log on to MFP & log all food!
- Drink 100 oz of water
- Exercise
- Write in journal
I was so active on this thread for a while, & had some good success this year losing weight (40 pounds!). But I've been lazy & backsliding the last couple of months. I've thankfully maintained my loss within 5 pounds (i've fluctuated up & down those 5 pounds). Accountability is important to my success, & I need to stop trying to convince myself that I can just half-*kitten* it & expect results!! So back at it, I am!2 -
For today I will
avoid the break room food in the afternoon
Drink a gallon of water
Walk 10k steps1 -
Today I will:
Exercise
Log all food
Drink 64 oz water0
