Short term goals

Mar 24, 2013

Reflecting on my eating choices lately.... I've realized I eat HORRIBLY!! Yesterday y'all ...... I ate pizza for 2 meals, and had desserts for "dinner" .... Uhmm..... that isn't cool.

So, I've been trying to log all my food on My Fitness Pal (user name is karkar28 - Find me and judge what I eat, PLEASE!)... I'm so bad at it. I'll do it for a few days, then stop for months. But, in doing that I've realized how important it is! Seriously, it holds me accountable to myself. 

I've set a short term goal to go back to "eating clean". All this nasty stuff (including alcohol) I've been putting in my face has made me feel bloated, frumpy, and just plain gross. So I got my crybaby self to the store! Marinated some chicken breasts in a Pollo Asado type concoction to put on the grill to have for the week, along with a healthy salad, a big vat of homemade pork chili, greek yogurt, fresh fruit, cheese, eggs, and nuts just to name a few. 

I say over and over and over that WLS ain't easy. It gets easy, absolutely. But everyday is a struggle to maintain a healthy, balanced, yet fun and non-deprived lifestyle. Exercise and healthy eating is what our tool needs to help us learn in our honeymoon phase. I learned it, PROMISE! Sometimes I just slip and this time the almost 10 lbs I've put on since summer is a shot in the ass I needed to get me back to the healthy woman I know I can be. (Plus, bikini season is right around the corner LOL) 

So cheers to making goals, even if it's just a short term goal to eat healthy for the week and make it to the gym at least 3 times.  Because short term goals will help us with our long term journey, right?!
