As you can probably tell based off of my title, this is not the rah rah week that the last two have been. Quite frankly this week, I was bad. This week after doing so well and losing the first two weeks I felt that I was entitled to a little treat. So I had a little bread, which in of itself would have been fine. I am not that disciplined though, and a little bread on one day became a little more the next day, some chips on another day, a little bit of cheese in passing, and last night my Achilles Heel, pizza. I was still taking my shake in the morning and eating right for the most part, but I was eating some things I was craving, and that was alright, right?
So the scale showed me what I thought, you mix in some bad with alot of good. And what you have is not totally bad, but not really all that good either. I lost, but not like I should have. I talked to the nutritionist today and went over some planning and strategy tips for kicking my butt in gear and how to plan for the "unexpected". Honestly it felt like pre-gaming for a football game, so I was getting kind of stoked. Exercise is going to be a bigger part of this week, and no more cheating, because I am only prolonging my unhealthy body, and trapping myself in an existence that I know is untimately not good for me.
The Tale of the Scale:
On 1/20/11 I weighed 361 lbs
On 1/26/11 I weighed 353 lbs
On 2/03/11 I weighed 345 lbs
On 2/09/11 I weighed 344 lbs
So far I have lost 17 lbs in 20 days. Good job in the sense that I am losing, but I know that I can do better.
Goal for this week is 13 lbs, I think that I can do it, and rather than aiming for good, I am going to go for my best. I think that I deserve that. That would also be 30 lbs of loss within a month. So wish me luck, and please pray that for my own good I learn to embrace the rules.

Way to go!! Go to the store and pick up a 20lb bag of dog food. That is what you have been carrying around everyday. Keep up the good attitude.
ReplyDeleteYou are doing awesome! It can be really hard to not fall into that trap of "treating yourself." I say those words to myself all the time, "I've been doing so good lately, I'm just going to have a little treat." Try to find ways to treat yourself that are still good for you. For example, (and I'm not sure how this would fit into your diet, but it's something that I do) make some sugar free jello and put some fruit in it, like strawberries, and then top off with some fat free cool whip. The mixture of it all together is amazingly tasty! Just something that I like to have as a "treat." Keep it up buddy! You're doing great!
