I am feeling very energized and motivated this week
with my 100% tracking commitment.
After having dinner with my parents at Costa Vida,
Dad mentioned getting ice cream. For a
split second that sounded really good. After
spending an extra 7 WPPA on dinner and already using 21 WPPA, I
didn’t want to spend anymore of my WPPA on an extra treat. I realized as I was driving home that had I
not been committed to my 100% tracking that it would have been very easy to
stop by Arctic Circle for a Reese’s peanut butter cup shake. Even today, with a full day of DPA available
to me it still sounds good. However, I
don’t need a treat. I need my pants to
fit better!
After reading my recent blogpost on the current status of my weight, a coworker asked me if my plan was to be really strict
with myself. She understands the hustle
of the holidays and the many food/treat opportunities that are on the way from
October through the New Year. This is a
really rough time of year to be trying to lose weight. I also don’t want to miss out on some of
those yummy treat options.
I need to find the best way to balance food and
treats without getting crazy and super restrictive. I have been known to have a “fear of eating”
when I am counting my PPVs and watching them closely. I do hope the small change I have made this
week in being more focused on tracking will help get me get closer to my goal of
weighing less and having my pants fit better.
I know I need to ramp up my exercise, well really I need to exercise in general! I am focusing this
week on just tracking. It is a busy week
and I have not really had any formal exercise.
For me, that is A-okay. I am
letting go of that feeling that I NEED to be working out like crazy. Exercise is great and I plan to get back into
it. What I need right now is a better
focus on food and to keep working that resistance muscle.
