I'm steadily dropping. Some days it's a bit up...some days it's a bit down...but I can see that it is a downward progression. I'll take it! :-) This morning puts me just about 7 pounds down in 2 weeks time. Once again...I"LL TAKE IT!
Yesterday was difficult. We went out to breakfast. I ordered pancakes and of course with those three pancakes (I may or may not have licked the plate clean...I'll never tell) I blew about 800 calories. Now seriously, I get right around 1200 -1300 calories a day....and I blew 2/3 of my calories by 9AM in the morning??? Todd and I had a late lunch/early dinner at 2PM. I counted everything out and I was JUST over my calories for the day..I was at roughly 1400 calories. I was ok with that...but had a long evening ahead of me. Around 6 I was hungry. I wondered if it was stress and emotions. I tried to bury my thoughts and do something. I wondered if it was thirst. I drank some more. And at 7PM, I decided it was NOT those things...(well, not 100% those things) and i had some baked tortilla chips, some salsa and a pb&j sandwich ...and felt 100% better. I had no more problems that evening with wanting to eat. So it was with fear that I stepped on the scales tonight. I was WAY over my calories. But surprisingly, I was down. not much. 0.2 pounds...but I was not UP! :-D
So I guess sometiems we really do need to listen to our bodies!
Thanks for the reminder. I need to remember to listen to my body!
ReplyDeleteYou go girl! Have trouble with breakfast too on the weekends. 7#'s in two weeks is great! Thanks for the inspiration!
ReplyDeletesometimes you just have to do what you have to do. i had a coupleof waffles the other day, i skipped the butter i used to put on them and used sugar free syrup. instead of covering them till all holes are filled and it's dripping down the sides i measeured into a bowl and dipped the corner of each bite just barely in , you know what honestly they were just as good. glad you're back on track sweetie, have a happy/healthy week!
ReplyDeleteIt happens to all of us from time to time. It's good that you are back on track. Hope you have a great week.
