MightyFull's Journal, 18 August 2014

So I've come to the conclusion that I just like to eat. And I've noticed that I don't drink any liquid until I finish my food. Both equally not good options. I've decided in addition to weighing myself on Monday, I will measure my pooch too. I got my 5th day of exercising in with housework.

I made a mistake yesterday and took a late 2 hour nap, and then my mind was racing with all kinds of frivolous facts and calculations from 11:30p - 12:30a. Seriously had to keep telling my mind to "SHUT UP!" And guess who didn't want to get up and work out this morning? Ha!

I think part of my issue is that I've been having pretty much 2 cups of cereal in the mornings. Probably need to cut that in half, so I had 1 cup of cereal instead.

I love nuts...pretty much all kinds...and I love to snack on them. I know they are huge fat holders and I need to moderate my intake.

Caffeine -- actually done well without the caffeine.
Enriched/Refined grains -- struggled with this one....would have loved to have had some potato chips and Lance crackers. They called me from the table....and I kept eating healthier option stuff to drown out their calls.

Btw -- still haven't responded to the letter.

I know you are not on a low carb diet, but careful with the cereal -- even the cereal with high protein has the carbs that turn right to sugar which is not good for your body at all. If you try to cut some of the sugars and carbs out and eat a bit more proteins/vegetables you will feel a difference.

I agree with jjean! The cereal habit is hard to break but there are so many more filling options for the morning! I love to eat also, so low carb diet really helps me! Sorry for the unsolicited advice, either way you are making good choices, good luck with your loss!

I agree with the breakfast advice. Depending on what I have it sets the tone for the whole day. If I have more carbs then I tend to crave more. If I combine the carbs with a protein like an egg sandwiche then it isn't so bad. But I love cereal so that's dinner or dessert sometimes. lol

I'm not able to really devote to the low carb diet, as it messes up my digestive system in a big way. Sorry for the overshare!!!!
