Day 45: I am going on my 7th week of dieting. I had a great week last week. I exercised 6 days out of the week and kept my caloric intake around the 1200 range. I ended up losing 3 lbs, which put me out of the 250s; and since I weigh in weekly on a doctor’s office scale (non-digital) that means a lot to me to go down another notch. Yesterday was my mother’s 49th birthday and to celebrate, the family went out to Longhorn Steakhouse and had Gigi’s Cupcakes afterwards. So need less to say, I went well over my caloric intake yesterday. But today is a new day and I am going right back into my diet. Even though I did stray from my diet last night, I still believe in myself and I am still committed to this weight loss journey I am on. So, I plan to start back exercising tonight or tomorrow after my stomach isn’t so upset from the fatty and sugary foods I eat last night because each time I go off my diet plan, I end up paying for it afterwards and yesterday was no exception.
This week my goals are to:
1. Continue to exercise (At least 4-5 days out of the week).
2. Continue to watch what I eat and how much I eat (Three 300 calorie meals a day and two 150 calorie snacks for a total of 1200 calories a day).
3. Continue to drink water throughout the day (Drink at least 64 oz or more of water a day).
4. Continue to think positive thoughts (Continue to improve my determination and strength).
5. Take multi-vitamin daily.
This week my reason for my lifestyle change is: a happier colon. Let’s face it, my colon and digestive system is much happier when I am eating a more balanced diet. I can say goodbye to those days when I felt bad or embarrassed about my stomach issues. I am no longer faced with the bloating, gas, or explosive BMs.
Here is another quote for all my FS friends. “You won't fail if you're not perfect, you'll fail if you're not committed to improving yourself slightly each day”. Hope everyone has a healthy week.
