The horses ran off and the wagon came unhitched. Could someone please rehitch them to my wagon? Where is my wagon anyway?
So I fell off the "wagon" like so many times in my life. I went more than a week without losing weight while working out and eating right, my daughter got sick, and I felt sick too (just one of the days in question). Did I get on my bike at home? No. Did I make it to the gym since Tuesday? No. (swimming lessons have fallen apart for my daughter) Did I overeat? YES. I have been so hungry. I gave in to my hunger last Wednesday by eating a double portion of meat, many wheat thins (probably 3 servings), and 2 wafer cookies. Now Thursday, I did well until dinner. We went to a fundraiser and they were serving appetizers. It was also a wine tasting. I had two glasses of wine and an uncountable number of appetizers including dessert. I felt so guilty for the next 2 days and my scale was up 3 pounds too. I am not sure how some people follow those diets where you get one cheat day to eat all and anything you want which will supposedly keep your metabolism guessing. I seriously have a problem stopping with just one bite of dessert if there is more dessert sitting in front of me. I am better off just not taking that first bite or just making a small serving. I do get the feeling though that I need to figure out some way to have a small amount of dessert at least a couple of nights a week. I made chocolate covered strawberries last night. Yumm. I only ate two like I was supposed to and it satisfied my sweet craving.
I need to cook more and plan my meals. I am getting tired of eating the same things. Although I have been eating out. Eating out is not that great though, because I stick to salads. Anyone have any great recipes to share and have you tried any more FR recipes?
Today, I am getting back to the gym! Clothes are in the car. Check on me to see if I went. My weight is back down and I have lost another half pound so I have turned things around.... again. I am down two sizes and it is nice to go shopping in my closet.
Thanks for all your support, I need it. I do not go it alone well and wish I had a gym buddy.
