So day three, and its going well. I think I have mostly gotten over the initial hungriness all the time that starts when I start dieting. I am falling back into the same pattern as last time I did weight watchers: I don't eat much during most of the day because I don't want to run out of points and be hungry later, and then suddenly it's 10:30 at night and I have 15 points left to eat. I do this quit often, and it's a bad habit of mine.
I've been very proud of myself so far. Yesterday I went to a baby shower and instead of eating a bunch of crap food, I ate a lot of pineapple and strawberries and carrots. I limited myself to a few chips and a bit of dip for the carrots. Eric picked me up from work last night, and he went to Mr. Sub. I was hungry but instead of getting a sub, I waited to eat until I got home and could eat something better. Today Eric and I went to the mall, and we went to eat at the food court. Eric got Sbarro. I got a salad with veggies and no cheese and low cal italian. Eric didn't want his garlic bread rolls because they weren't garlicy enough, but instead of eating them like I normally would have, I just took a 1/4 of one. It satisfied my craving but didn't break my diet. All in all, I've been pretty satisfied with the choices I've been making to try to bypass or limit the bad food I'm eating. Let's keep it up!
Another thing I have noticed that I do is obsessively check my weight. I weight myself all the time. It's not just once a day or something. Sometimes it's multiple times a day. I don't even think about doing it. I just feel the sudden urge to, and I go and do it. It kinda drives me nuts. I think I'm subconsciously looking for the validation that my dieting is paying off, but I need to stop the weighing myself. I'm gonna try to hold off until I reach a week on the diet, and then I'll weigh myself and see the total progress so far and do an official weigh in. I hope I will get a good surprise at the end of the week.
