I'm recording a second journal entry today...
I broke my swimming record, so I wanted to record it. I swam 1 mile in 40 min. So far I have gone 3/4 mile before, but decided I could keep going to hit this new goal. It has been helpful to break down the goal into 1/4 mile each aiming for 10 min. I am happy about this! I ordered new goggles, swim cap and a swimsuit online today. Yes, I have been swimming with the whole get-up on. It's very sexy.
I have been recording points today and have ate very healthfully and yet see I am already over points for the day and I haven't even had my snack tonight. Now I don't count my activity points which would give me more, but it is frustrating to put forth the effort and know I am eating well and to still be over in points. I don't want to let it discourage me though b/c nothing was junk and overall was light in carbs. My girls wanted to make cookies tonight and I told them no. Eating a hot, fresh cookie sounds delicious but these are the things that keep setting me back. Now I am wavering and thinking about making them. I am trying to be very conscious of my goal of 134 by my tri on Feb. 22 looming just over 2 weeks ahead of me and not keep shooting myself in the foot with eating out choices and homemade goodies!!!
Why is it such a struggle sometimes??!!!
