One of those days...

It's one of those days that I'm struggling to make good choices. It's cold, my hormones have me cold one minute and hot the next, and I'm feeling lazy (but bored - isn't that weird?)
Feeling to icky to move and get some exercise, so the couch is my haven today.

Yesterday I started off fine, until lunch. I ate ham instead of my shake. Sodium-filled, albeit delicious ham.
And I know in my head that drinking my shake may not be what I "want" but I will "feel" better if I do.
Today is a new day. What mattes is the choices I make at the next meal.
Right?

I want to work all day and order out dinner, not making time to cook and clean it up. But you can't order good food around here, only pizza (or Chinese, which we rarely do). I don't use all those food delivery things, or I guess I could get something different, but still not what I want. I've been posting for a while now that I wish we had a local deli where you could stop in and grab a delicious and somewhat healthy sandwich, salad, or smoothie. (I think what I am thinking about probably actually exists in areas like Cali)
And I don't eat at Subway - just a weird thing about me.

So dinner tonight is a mystery right now. I'm trying to work and not think about it (yet I'm over here blogging AND thinking about it, lol)

Back to work!

My nemisis

I am failing miserably at this diet thing... I just want to look better and feel better and be healthy. The pandemic did me in...I'm serious. Suddenly I was no longer alone in the house, which was nice, but it turned me from getting my steps in while watching tv, and trying a new on-demand exercise routine to sitting. Mr. G working in the other room has me more self conscious about doing any of those things that I used to. And yes, that's a ME problem. Then there was the community panic of "Stores are going to run out of food!" So we were buying anything we could find in anticipation for empty shelves. (Now we know the only shelves that went empty were toilet paper, paper towels, I'm hearing baby formula, and cat food. Then breakfast sandwiches-which was odd.) But I went from buying all fresh veggies and proteins to whatever I could find. I still don't eat frozen chicken nuggets or strips, and I do make frozen fresh chicken. BUT my eating habits went crazy. I ...

It's Time to be Awesome

Yesterday I started over (wait, have I said that before?) I watched my calories, and drank my shake for lunch (instead of eating something) and tried to get in my water. It was rough. When you get used to eating foods, and not so healthy foods, it is hard to not eat them. And you crave them. You mistakenly think you need them. And it sucks. And it's hard. But if you want it bad enough, you'll try. And I am. I am trying again today. I will take this one day at a time - no, one meal at a time. We (meaning my husband and I) ordered Fit Boards. Yep, we did. Yes, the ones you saw on Shark Tank. I'll let you know if they work. I got very used to snacking in the morning and the afternoon and the evening. Did you? This quarantine made me lazy. I look at the room and say "I should vacuum/dust" then I don't. And I keep thinking I am not going anywhere this summer, so what am I fighting for? Then I see people on tv like former WWE wre...

No Bueno

Well, this week's weigh in was a bust. I didn't lost anything. But I knew that would be the case, because my whole body felt weighed down, like I was full of fluid. So I can only think the numbers on the scale weren't accurate. I don't know why I felt so bloated all weekend? We've been eating a lot of bagels - maybe that's it. I tried to drink my water this week, and thought I was doing pretty well. All I can do is get back at it tomorrow. That's all you can ever do - keep at it! I was hoping to find something to replace water in the afternoon, something that would still hydrate me, but no luck yet. Water can be hard sometimes... What keeps me going is how far I've come. I realized since I started this journey in 2018, I've lost 2inches off my stomach, and 4 inches off my hips. It might be small, but it's something, and it has stayed off. Small victories, and time to keep at it for more results! I have a goal, and I am determined to...
