Here we go again and again



Okay! So I stink at doing this online diary of weight loss. No, I stink at weight loss. I haven't posted here since January! And I haven't lost weight! In fact, today I am 73.8 kilograms! But here is what I know I do well and what I know I am not good at:

Things for me that I do well:

Get plenty of sleep
Drink lots of water
Eat a variety of foods that are nutritious and prepared well
Try to eat less meat
Don't eat fatty fried foods
Love fruits and vegetables
Keep a mindful list in my head of what I ate during the day

Things I don't do well:

Don't get up early enough
Sit around too long on the computer
Don't walk or run enough
Don't get outside enough
Don't count points nor keep a list of what I eat


Things that sabotage me!


Alcohol
Snacking while drinking
Snacking while on the computer
Putting it all off until tomorrow

Well tomorrow is here! So what WILL I do:

-I will continue to do the positive things that are good habits from the list above.
-I can eat mindfully and keep that running tally in my head.
-Every single day I can exercise for at least 20 minutes.
-I can set a goal to fit into a particular piece of clothing.
-I can only eat in the dining room, no TV or computer snacking.
-I can try to not eat after seven.
-I can follow the three bite rule. You have a piece of cake, you get three bites and then you are done.

I will weigh myself daily, not out of obsession, but because it is a way to keep me on track. No, I won't post here daily, maybe weekly, but don't hold your breath!
