metamora's Journal, 20 October 2016

OK, I'm a a standstill here. I'm letting myself eat way too many things not helpful to my diet. There are too many fudge bars, and I totally mishandled yesterday's lunch (at which I ate a Hagen-Daz ice cream bar) not planning for a mid-day real lunch and overeating snacks served at book club, then not even telling the truth on my food log. It's not good when you lie to yourself.

The problem is that a part of me says that this weight is good enough. I know that's not true. It's not a bad weight, but I know I feel better, look better, and my blood pressure is consistently better at a lower weight. I also know that my tendency is to gain weight when I'm not actively working on it, and especially when I allow alcohol as part of my diet. At a lower weight I have more wiggle room.

It is back to the disciple of portion control, planning ahead, and wise choices.

I am doing the exercise, which has saved me from gaining significant weight. I need to remind myself that exercise is not enough, that it's not sufficient to keep me from gaining weight again when I eat unhealthful and unhelpful foods.
