Just a quick non-update! I was supposed to weigh in this morning for the Biggest Loser Challenge, but my scale was broken!!! Shock, horror!! How could such a thing happen??? It's not that bad though, it only needs new batteries! Maybe if I didn't hop on and off it so often the batteries would last longer! But my weight two days ago was down from 175.8 to 173.6. But it's probably back up again :-(
My food the last week, has been bad :-( But today was better and I ate a ton of veggies, protein and good carbs. But also too much chocolate and biscuits. Why can't I control my cravings??!!
Anyway, I'm still trying to get to bed earlier these days because getting up in the morning is such a bitch! Ghost Whisperer is on so I'm off to watch that before bed time!!
Yeah, I know what you mean. I learned from childhood that I was too busy to eat and not interested in real food, so I'd just stop by the house long enough to grab sugar and move on. I was underweight my entire life until the last 10 years and the sugar habit caught up to me. Now, I have to learn to like protein--ick. I still crave chocolate. I had a nutrition class where the teacher said something smart. "Your body will do all it can to eat the calories you need to maintain the weight you are. You have to lose weight by eating the amount of calories a person the size you want to be needs to maintain, such as 1200 calories if say you want to be 125 pounds." That gave me some relief when I realized that my cravings were my body trying to force me to eat enough to be this weight! Yikes! Hope that perspective helps you. Keep it up.
ReplyDeleteHey.. at least you were down! I am sure you probably still are. Get those batteries girl and let us know!! =)
ReplyDeleteYou need to think positive. You're still down! Keep those numbers heading the right direction!
ReplyDeleteTry buying some snacks that are low sugar to help curb your cravings like the 100 calorie packs, or sugar free jello. Then allow your self controlled snacking!
ReplyDeleteGood luck! And get those batteries!
