I think I did really good this week with food choices.....a few not so good but mostly good. I did not get to exercise though because of my ankle injury....I think it's getting better. I hope the scale shows the same.
It is so strange to have to eat to lose weight! the more I eat the more I lose....healthy things that is. I spent my whole life being told to not eat so much and to quit eating that I had gotten into starvation mode and my body does not want to let go of the extra pounds. Now I find out that it is not how much I was eating mostly but, the wrong things and not often enough for my body to use up what I did eat, I was storing it for a rainy day I guess. Well, I've had enough rainy days in my life and am not storing up any more pounds. I'm praying for sunny days!! It is so different to try to eat like this but it feels good! Now I am actually hungry more than once a day and not having to eat a huge meal to feel full. It's more like nibbling all day and I was told NOT to do that my whole life.
A new way of eating for me! Sunny days ahead!
Hey, I am going camping this week and I'm a bit nervous because in the past it has been an excuse to eat junk food and not watch what I eat at all......eat like the kids! SMORES and hot chocolate. I have packed some healthy things and some treats too. I am just praying for self control, to be good to myself and not stuff myself just because I'm sitting there with nothing else to do. I'm hoping to do some walking. The kids and hubby are planning a big hike and I don't think I should do it because of my ankle, it needs to get better before the 13th. I think I'll walk the dog when they are doing their hike. Oh, and remember to drink my water!!
I think I will do an early weigh-in tomorrow before I go.
