The past three days have been good. Normally I would write everything down and obsess about it. Now I am just "mindful" of what I put in my mouth.
This time, I started with me giving up cow's milk in my coffee, which I've done for 25+ years. I have been reading some info about how we don't need cow's milk and hThis only being ps that do are calves and perhaps baby humans.
So, I replaced my morning milk in my coffee with nut milks like cashew and almond (unsweetened, of course) and have been making sure I don't eat anything with sugar added or add any sugar to anything.
I truly believe sugar is the root of all obesity and overweightedness.
So, I am "back on th the chart" and this makes me happy. The chart is a self-created tracking of my weight going down and is right next to my treadmill in my "workiout" room.
I've also been eating a very small lunch, a relatively hearty breakfast, and a lean, healthy, vitamin packed dinner. I discovered making salads with plenty of textures and flavor and I live the variety of that.
It seems to be working! I feel confident that this is a lifestyle change and will work!

OK, so obviously haven't been working on anything.
I have it in my head that I am just struggling with "which type" of diet to do. And yes, it's a diet. As much as I say it's a "lifestyle change" we all know that we have to get on a program, set a goal weight and possibly date, and stay with it.
Once we lose the weight, it's not throw caution to the wind, but rather now I can ease up.
So, yes, it's a diet.
Am I changing the way I eat? Not really. I actually love healthy food. Vegetables, olive oil, lean meats and fish, quinoa, etc. It's the calorie counting and feeling like I'm a failure if I have too much.
I've been really cheating the past couple of days and in retrospect, I always see that it didn't taste as good as I thought it would or remember just scarfing it down and not thinking and then reminding myself that it didn't even taste good.
I need to remember this when I think about buying and eating things that are horribly bad for me.
So, I am beginning to eat healthfully today again. Won't exercise because my main goal today is to eat healthfully, savor every bite, and enjoy it.

Started again. Benn having neck and upper back pain. Got a massage yesterday and took a detox bath. Lots of water. On today with one goal in mind--taking care of myself.

I actually started over on June 23rd, I just didn't feel like resetting everything. I started at 197, so I've made progress. It think it might actually stick this time and that the ball might have begun to move. Hopefully, that ball will continue moving forward and begin to pick up a speed as I see more results. I have 2 months until I go back to begin the teaching year and no excuse not to work my hardest for those two months. By then, I can be very close to my goal weight of 142 and all of my clothes that I have never worn can be my new wardrobe for the new school year.

OK. Really started yesterday. Worked out, ate SBP1 and feel like this is the beginning. Finally gonna do this. It's been a cycle for too long. I read an inspirational quote that said, "If you're tired of starting over, stop quitting." It fits perfectly.
