Well my day was going well right up to the 21 whoppers. Although I did meet my goal of not snacking after 9PM. I was totally done by 8:59. Now there’s some resolve for you.
Dr. Phil talks about having a fail safe environment and with that huge (seriously the thing is a behemouth) bowl of Halloween candy just sitting out in plain sight, my environment is anything by fail safe. I think I will bag it up and put it in Mike’s drawer. I will know it’s there, but honestly the only time I eat it is when I walk in to the kitchen for a carrot and am confronted with the alternative.
I did weigh myself today and I am down 2 pounds. I think a lot of it was water weight from all the processed foods I ate this weekend, but some of it is fat. I know that as long as eat healthy and exercise a moderate amount, nursing the Bee takes weight off quickly. It’s just that for some reason, I don’t do that stuff.
It’s interesting too, isn’t it? I feel better when I eat well and drink plenty of water. And once I am past the aches and pains of beginning exercise, it makes me feel better too. When I am thinner my knees don’t bother me, my back doesn’t ache as much and I have more energy. Since gaining my baby weight, all that stuff hurts on me. So why do I have such a hard time remembering that in the moment? Is it habit?
Chime in – what makes you do things you know won’t make you feel good?
