Bad Bad Weekend

Wow I had a terrible weekend of eating.  Started with my over indulgence of popcorn on Friday, continued with too many sweets between Saturday and Sunday and ended with eating at a Mexican restaurant on Sunday for dinner.  Not to mention that I didn't eat as much fiber and fruits and veggies as I should.

Well, I just have to forgive myself and get back to eating good tomorrow.

Rough Day

Today I had a little bit of a rough day.  It started out with me wanting a muffin.  One of those yummy, big gooey ones made with perservatives and white flour. I was in the store and almost bought one.  I stared at them and decided against it and just walked away. 

Later in the day I bought some popcorn because I was craving something and just ate way too much.  I definitely overate.  Still working on the self control.  Uggggh!!!

Feeling Lazy

Lately I have been feeling lazy.  Not wanting to worry about what I eat and don't eat.  I want to just be able to eat whatever whenever I want.  I don't want to have to make sure I have snacks with me when I go out.  Make sure I have the right foods with me at work.  I just what to consume what is convenient. 

But of course I have to remind myself that that kind of laziness is what got me fat in the first place.

Why God?

I am not a vegetable fan at all.  I love fruit but vegetables I could live without.  I only eat them because I know they are good for me.  I was just wondering today, why didn't God make vegetables takes like ice cream?  You know he could have made them more appealing.  Oh well, guess I'll have to wait and ask him.

Weigh in

So I decided to weigh myself this morning.  I was trying to decide how often I should weigh myself.  Originally I thought I would just do it every three weeks, since the initial time was three weeks.  But then I thought it would be much easier to keep track of weighing myself once a month rather than every three weeks.  So since I started this whole deal on March 9th.  I'm going to weigh myself every month on the 9th. 

This morning I weighed 199.  I lost 2 more pounds.  Yaaay!

Last night I broke two of my habits.  I was up late straightening my hair and I wanted to eat something - just because.  So I ate some tortilla chips.   I wasn't hungry and it was within two hours of bedtime.  So I was rather disappointed with myself.   I immediately had my old mentality thinking that I've blown it and everything I've done up till now is going to pot because I made one mistake.  Even though I felt this way, luckily though I've grown strong enough not to do what I would have done in the past, and that is give myself permission to totally go off and eat junk because I made one mistake.
