busy or something.

Not much to report lately..

I had little time and haven't read my "The Eat-Clean Diet" in about 4 or 5 days, it shows.. (such a good motivator!) but still, i'm not doing so bad either. I walked outside everyday in the sunny afternoons, ate mostly well and i'm sure in my range even though I haven't logged anything in the last 4-5 days and slept a good number of hours each night. Very busy with work and just.. life.

Tomorrow I have my 3rd/4 class of hula hoop! It's gonna be fun and I can't wait :)

Temptations

Saturday, October 29, 2011

So far so good :)

Earliyer today I had to go to a "dépanneur" and I was hungry and I needed a bottle of water because I was also dehydrated.. That place is evil. Chips, chocolate, various sugary beverages, lots of anti-food everywhere but oh so tempting after a morning of deceptions at the mall.. BUT! I didn't bought anything but my bottle of water then head home and ate goods. *phew*

I will eat at a restaurant tonight, it's my grandpa 80th birthday!! I will try to be good and do stuff like replace my french fries by steamed veggies or rice and take a smaller portion of whatever meal I'll have.. I've never done that before.

I return to my book now ;)

Way to go for not giving into temptation! Hope you had a good time at your grandpa's birthday supper! Report Inappropriate Comment

Hey, way to go for the depanneur! I know how much it can be hard sometimes! I know that the other day, I went to a Couche-Tard and discovered that there is a machine where you can make your own Blizzard... And this is THE dessert I prefer in the whole world! I was happy to see that it existed but I was very sad at the same time because I can't really enjoy this! I hope everything was fine for your restaurant and that you had fun. =) Report Inappropriate Comment

on Eating Clean

Friday, October 28, 2011

Today was my first day of Eating Clean. This is not really a "diet", just a natural way to eat real food. Very interesting! I bought the book yesterday and I can't lift my face from it, full of truths and I find it very motivational too. My boyfriend keeps telling me that he's been talking about those very same ideas since we've met, and he's so right *heart*. It's just common sense, really. "You are what you eat".

I don't have much time lately but I will try to plan my week on Sunday and see how it goes. I'm excited to go on a scale again because I feel good and i'm pretty sure the number went down again.. :) We'll see!

Let's do this!

Clean eating! It pretty much represents my philosophy about food and my relation to it. I spent some time tonight reading the forum of the samename's team and I feel pretty pumped! I'm gonna try this thing and see how it goes. I might even go and buy a book tomorrow (The eating clean diet, recharged by Tosca Reno) even though i'm on a thight budget and I hope it's gonna help me stay on track with a good motivation for when i'm feeling a little low and weak.

Another book i'm interested in is "Appetite for reduction" by Isa Chandra Moskowitz (Post Punk Kitchen) because I love the PPK and i've read a lot of good stuff about the book. I hope i'll have some money soon.

A good point for today is that we bought some shelves so I can do some sprout at home, to save some money but also for quality and fun :) So now I only need some trays and a bit of reading. There's an atelier i'd like to attend in november about "the basics of living food" or raw food, I guess.. but it's a bit expensive and also I might work these nights. We'll see!

I'm so discouraged. I've been thinking about abandoning everything too.. I won't, but it went on my mind. Except for walks, I didn't had any exercise done since 2 weeks at least! I ate badly and too much, I don't sleep well or enough and I barely drink water. I just don't feel I have any energy left and absolutely no time for myself. I don't work that much but really those evening shift, argh! I'm gonna have some news about my day shifts next week.

I'm having my period so maybe it amplifies everything but I really feel like sh*t lately and I have trouble seeing me out of this hole I dig for myself.

I'm sorry for this negative post, I'm not really depressed but right now it's hard. I feel like I need a break from everything else in order to take care of myself and that's just not possible. There's lot of positive in a near future, I can feel it.. but right now it'S hard. Maybe it's seasonal.. maybe I just need this frustration stage in order to have a good one ahead.

Je crois moi aussi qu'il faut faire chaque jour de son mieux et prendre ça une journée à la fois. Tu sais ,on a tous des hauts et des bas. L'important,c'est de ne pas abandonner. Report Inappropriate Comment

Salut! Tu sais, je pense vraiment que c'est saisonnier. J'ai lu ton commentaire (merci, ça m'a fait du bien de te lire) et on est vraiment dans le même bateau! Je ressens exactement les mêmes choses que toi. Ce que je me dis, c'est qu'il faut simplement tenter de remettre les choses en place. Oublier hier et poursuivre avec aujourd'hui et demain - c'est comme ça qu'on obtient des résultats! Plus facile qu'à dire qu'à faire, masi bon, il faut juste dse bouger le cul! =P Bon bon... Moi aussi je suis dans mes périodes. C'est clair que ça aide pas! Ne quitte pas, tiens le coup... Tu sais, moi aussi j'adore te lire et de voir tes progrès. Le 167 me paraît bien loin, par contre! Le manque d'énergie et de volonté... C'est un peu saisonnier, mais en même temps si on mange des cochonneries à longueur de temps, on s'en rend pas compte mais ça aide pas! ---------- Essai e de boire un verre d'eau de plus que hier, un fruit de plus... Tu vas reprendre tranquillement tes habitudes. Aussi, je me dis que c'est mieux de prendre ça cool que de relâcher ses habitudes. Si tu es comme moi, après Noël tu vas vouloir reprendre les bonnes habitudes. Si tu reprends d'où tu es partie, c'est bien moins décourageant que si tu as repris tout le poids que tu avais perdu! J'adore aussi voir tes progrès! Go, t'Es capable! =) Report Inappropriate Comment
