NowIunderstand's Journal, 14 March 2015

I noticed that your food journal has been less than regular. Are you sure your calories are in line with your activity level? For me I have found that when I don't record it every day it creeps out of whack pretty quickly. It is the little adders that tend to get me when I don't record - I make a yogurt thing for breakfast and add a little extra honey or oatmeal with craisins (I love them but always forget how calorie dense they are). The walking has got to help. I will say again - you can do it. You have done it and you were doing it as recently as December.  

You have got this. Next week will be better. 

thank you people! :)  

NowIunderstand... Thank you for your very sweet and kind comment. You too are doing fantastic and I promise you if you stick with it no matter how long it takes you will succeed! There are literally weeks when I will maintain the same low calorie count, do the same amount of exercise and not loose anything... Oh how frustrating, and, sooo disappointing, but I tell myself that no matter what it takes I've got this and no matter what, I will not give up ever! I am determined to live a healthy fit life and that means I am going to have to take care of myself, eat wisely and possibly count calories for the rest of my life, and exercise on a schedule. I know that there will be trials and pitfalls but I know good health is going to trump eating unsoundly. So as I continue this journey which for all intents and purposes will undoubtedly last the rest of my life I know that the reward of a healthy mind and body will make it all worth while.
