Not very please with my inability to keep my calories down each day. I'm working out now, which I haven't done for a very long time, AND I'm sure I am actually eating less than I was before I joined FS and started keeping the food journal.... BUT it seems like I'm only treading water here and not making any ground. Little steps I know make for a real difference in lifestyle and healthy choices. Little steps. I'm making little steps left and right but I feel like I'm still struggling.
OK for the positives.... I USED to come home from work and stuff my face and then eat a fairly large dinner with my husband when he got home. NOW I take small snacks to work and then go to the gym after work instead of stuffing my face.
I USED to drink like 6 or more cans of regular soda per day. Then I was drinking 6 or 7 cans of Diet soda per day and NOW I'm down to apx 1 or 2 cans per day on average. SMALL Steps.
Ok the light at the end of the tunnel is brighter now. Now that I've taken some time to recognize my accomplishments, instead of only the "fails".
So - what now - maybe an even more concious awareness of what I'm putting into my face. Fresh veggies do not seem to be making a very heavy appearance on my daily food journal. So, payday - shopping day - this week I will make sure to spend more time in the produce section and then when I get home - I will clean and prepare the produce for easy consumption. This will be my self mini challenge for the rest of August. Buy more veggies and fruit AND actually eat it instead of some of the other stuff I've been choosing.
OK FS buddies. . . . hold me accountable!!! :)
