New MrsRando's Journal, 14 October 2011

Not been feeling this whole losing weight thing this week. I seem to have either gotten a headcold or seasonal allergies. I didn't go to the gym on Thursday like I normally do because I couldn't breath. I had some cake and ice cream last night but my hubby dished out the ice cream and OMG he gave me sooo much. So I had much more than I should have (I even stopped eating it and gave him the rest). I still went over my RDI. No biggie though. Today, there are cookies galore in the office, two different kind. I tried one and have, so far, stayed away from the other; however, I think I might eat one. I'm not sure though.

I freaking stepped on the darn scale this morning and I HAVE to move that thing so it isn't so easy to get to. I know this week is TOM but the scale is moving in the wrong direction so it has me upset. This was happening last week which is why I decided to get the scale out of the bathroom, evidently I didn't learn my lesson. I have my 5k tomorrow and I'm starting to be able to breath so I'm hopeful I won't feel like crap tomorrow.

I'm just feeling blah. I had to force myself to enter my food from last night because I knew I went over but I did it. I think it's just TOM and being sick(ish) making me throw my hands up and say "F-it". But I can't and I won't. I have to reach my goals.

First of all, you must take care of your body and that means take care and get over the cold. Eat good today and get plenty of rest for your 5k tomorrow. Take it easy. Once you get to feeling better, get back into your routine of eating healthy and exercising because temptation will always be there. Always. It's not anyone else's fault for what goes into your mouth. If they offer it, it's your responsibility to tell them politely, "No, thank you." But I'm glad you took some accountability about the ice cream and cookies. I think the guilt and the cold are making you feel blah. Keep entering your food log, even when it's food you know are not good. It will make you look at it again and you will say to yourself, "Okay, I know I caved on this one, but I will not cave next time." And you won't. This battle down. On to tomorrow's battle! You will do well! :)

Mocha has a very valid point. I'm in your same boat right now, just feeling icky, and it's really hard not to cave to those Girl Scout cookies my daughter has in the freezer. But I know it's not what I need, and just drink another liter of water. As for office cookies... if they're not homemade, are they truly worth it? That is the question I always ask myself if I am tempted by office spread treats. If it's certain brands that I know I don't really care for, I just say no. It won't taste as good as I want it to, and won't really be worth the extra calories. Pizza is a weakness for me, but if it's other than Domino's or Papa John's, I skip it. You can do this!!

Definitely not blaming the hubby, I could have given him the bowl before I ate two servings. It was my new lesson to make sure to ask for just a scope of ice cream next time. My "diet" is to eat what I want but make trade offs. So I ate like crap today, I have to be very conservative with dinner tonight to make my calories. I'm very aware that I'm not eating the best I can but tomorrow will be a better day :)

feeling your pain TOM and my first flu/cold of the season - I just feel like crap :( some times it is ok to forgive our selves and slow down for a bit - just keep that end goal in mind - life is going to throw you the occasional obstacle and you will have to make a detour! C'est lavie! We move on an you are doing great - good luck with the 5k that is AWESOME!!!

Thanks you! Yeah, I'm just geeling like I want to chill for a minute. I've been going full steam ahead but I feel like someone stole my steam, haha.
