Focusing on eating healthy and being healthy.

Weigh-in Day...


Yesterday was weigh -in day. I lost .6 of a pound.......well it's a loss and not a gain! I guess I will have to just keep at it and work harder. This next week is going to be tough.....I'm going on vacation for a week. I will not weigh-in next Thursday because I will not be home but as soon as I get back I will check to see the damage and then report in.
I waited too long to eat yesterday. I got up and did some exercise and then took a shower and got busy helping my daughter with school work and didn't eat till 1:00 pm!! I was so hungry.....I was shaking. I know better than to do that and it only leads to overeating for me because I feel like I am starving. Not fun...I don't want to do that again.
My hubby came home from work yesterday and took me to a movie. It just amazes me at the changes I have made going to the movies. I no longer have to load up on candy and eat it in the dark. Oh....don't get me wrong about the candy, I did have a few melt away mints (5) and a bit of mini malted easter eggs (10) but, only a small amount......before I would have eaten the whole bag or close to it. The best thing I have ever taken to the movies to eat is a small bag of cherries! That was the best treat ever!! A good habit I have picked up is trying to drink a full water bottle while I am in there......nothing else to do and I have it right by my side I can sip on it till it is gone and there you have it 32 oz. of water drank while watching a movie. It's a great way to get in some water.

Great big NSV on the candy! It really doesn't take that much to satisfy and make you feel like you've had a treat, does it?

Hope you have a great weekend and a fantastic vacation!

Congrats on the .6lb loss!! Give yourself good credit!! You EARNED it!! :) :)

Ooh great strategy with the eating at movies. I am so bad with candy and popcorn too. I have to limit my serving sizes or do cherries like you too. Great idea!!!
