Unsure which Blog to use- so I'm posting here and Tumblr... both of which need updated profiles badly. LOL
I thought It was time for a real blog entry. I am about to RE-embark
on my weight loss journey for the 987435862348723647th time. I have a
LOT of people around me that are succeeding in their own weight loss
journeys and they all look amazing! It’s giving me the motivation to get
back on the horse. Again.
I wish I knew what power food holds over me. I wake up almost every
day with the intent of eating healthier. Not having fast food. Or soda.
Or junk. But whenever the time comes, it’s like i go into this zombie
state and forget all about the fact that this food I’m about to consume
is sending me in the complete OPPOSITE direction that I want to be going
in. I completely rationalize why its ok for me to eat this “this time” -
EVERY time. I sit down at night here on tumblr and see all the awesome
“fitspo” and before and after pics and alllll the awesome motivation and
I’m totally pumped. But then…. go to work and by break time I’m
starving and “HAVE TO HAVE a Dr. Pepper” and then I have a huge ass
soda….and then I get off of work and I’m starving again and we (My
roommates and i) go out to eat and I consistently make the worst choices
possible. Its stupid.
Tomorrow is Monday, March 4th. I’m going to going grocery shopping
after work tomorrow where I will purchase food for every meal and make
it so that I can not go out to eat because the food I bought will go bad
and there for be a total waste of money. I will even buy myself one of
those packs of mini Dr Pepper cans so that I can start weening myself
away from dr pepper. Instead of having a 32 oz fountain DP, I will have
the 8 oz can. I will also start counting the oz’s of water I will be
consuming and make sure that I get as much in as I can during the day.
It’s definitely time to stop being stupid. It’s time to see how amazing
being healthy feels.
I will also be restarting my Couch to 5k program because its been
over 2 weeks no since i’ve gone out for a run. I LOVE the way running
makes me feel. I am going to get thru the 8 weeks! I will also start
lifting 2 or 3 days a week. It’s time. I’m 33 years old. It’s only
going to get harder from here. I want to feel good. I want to enjoy
shopping for clothes. I want to have an awesome after to my billion
before pictures. I want to be able to go home for visits and shock
people from my old life with my new look. I want to live to be an old
woman who is healthy, without the heart disease, cancers, and diabetes
that run crazy through my family.
It’s time.
The Plan: Weigh myself EVERY DAY in March***I know that weighing
myself isn’t the best plan. But its MY best plan. It will keep me on
track and keep me motivated to stay there.*** To only allow myself to
eat out on the weekend -once or twice- NOT EVERY MEAL. Drink 64 plus
ounces of water per day. Eat every meal. NO 32 oz fountain soda
(eventually no more soda at all). Snack on fruits and veggies. and BLOG.
and Read Blogs and watch Vlogs. KEEP MOTIVATED!
It’s a start. I’ve a long way to go. I will post the official re-starting weight and picture tomorrow.
