I have to admit, I haven't been completely following my diet this past week. I MAY have had a slice (or two) of pizza yesterday, but it was thin crust!! I also may have had a cake pop (THE cake pop!!!). And I only got two workouts in. Today I weighed in at 149.8, which is a .2 gain from last week. However, I did eat very well MOST of the time, and I did two more workouts than I would have normally done. And I'm still in the 140's, but just barely. I knew I'd be stressed with finals coming up this week, but this has been nuts. I find I'm still turning to food for comfort..something I must continue working on. I also disdain the taste of water, so I need to start getting creative to get my water in.
So today is a new day. Starting fresh, with my delicious oatmeal and black coffee, followed by a workout. I'm going to start week one's workouts again. I also went food shopping and stocked up on healthy foods, such as fish, almonds, fruits, and veggies. Trader Joe's has some amazing prices on produce (.19 each for bananas!) and $1.99 for two heads of fennel..try quartering, coring, and roasting it in olive oil on a sheet pan at 400 degrees for about 20 to 25 minutes. It's an amazing side dish.
Have a wonderful day everyone, and remember that it's never too late to start making healthy changes to your lifestyle!
Oh boy, stress will do it every time. I read once, to make a list of things that only take a few minutes to do, e.g. brush the dog, walk around the block, sweep the kitchen etc. Then when you are frustrated and need a break, look at this list and choose one of those activities.
