Refocus on good habits

Oct 24, 2013

Very quick blog just to get my thoughts down.  I am 40 pounds away from my goal.  I don’t have a time frame that I want to reach my goal in but I know I want to reach it.  The things I have been doing lately are not going to get me there and definitely won’t keep me there.  I am letting food start to rule my life again.  I am using it as a comfort and as entertainment.  That’s my downfall.  It’s not so much the food I am eating as it is my attitude about it.  I’m not gaining weight but I’m not losing either.  If I were in maintenance, this would be great! Lol But I’m not… I want to lose more and still have a way to go before I am satisfied.

Today, I am going running first thing after I get off work.  I have started going back to just lying around after work which makes it easier to snack.  My attitude is completely different when I am exercising.  I view my food as fuel for my workouts and I push myself to take in what I need and leave the crap out.  So it’s time to cut out the bad habits.  I feel SO much better when I am eating healthy stuff and being mindful of my eating. Today is Thursday and I am going to use today and the next 3 days to get refocused and back on the right track.  My goals for the next few days are:

- Start tracking everything I eat on My Fitness Pal again, even if it's not on plan.

- Exercise every day and keep track on RunKeeper, even if it’s just a small walk.

- Search for therapists and start making some calls to set an appointment.

- Go shopping Sunday for the week’s food and make a meal plan.

I plan on getting refocused this weekend and meeting all these goals.  We’ll see on Monday how I do!
