OK...the George's shake was a BIG disaster. Chunks at the bottom, couldn't get the oatmeal to grind up. And yes, it is SUPPOSED to be uncooked. Ug. But I'll modify the shake for the future. More protein powder, it has quite a bit of fiber b/c it is hemp based. I thought a shake might work as I really hate eating breakfast, but I think I'm hungry already. Although that could be the detox talking - I've really reduced my sugar intake by cutting out the creamers in the am.
I'm going by the advice of Linda Spangle, and doing a 100 day diet challenge. Each day, I'm tackling an issue. While I have WAY more time to work the weight I need to use, I can address the issues I have with losing weight, and feel like there is an end in sight. I was also tempted to not count the first couple days I've been doing my food plan, as it wasn't "perfect". But "perfect" is one of the issues I have to work on! There is no perfect. Ever. And my need to strive for perfection drives me to food. So no win there.
I didn't go to yoga class last night, and i'm kicking myself. But the main reason was that I hadn't eaten a proper dinner (due to poor planning) and it was a) eat dinner or b) do yoga. I let it go because I had done yoga earlier, and was planning not to go as it was an open class for new students to test it out. But then I noticed that there weren't that many coming, and I wanted it to look full. I was already drained from poor food choices the day before, adn here I was again, feeling limp and tired. I really hate that beginning of a diet thing where ALL you do is plan and eat, plan and eat. I tend to wait until I'm starving, and then shove in my mouth whatever is quick, convenient and plentiful. So I don't do that anymore. I'm now a planner!
So today, I have a plan. Of course, being my day off, it is vastly easier to take the time I need. Now the challenge will be to get ready for the next 3 days, which will tend to be busy. I'm also going to plan my workouts - I've committed to an hour workout on days that I don't work, and a half hour on days that I do.
