Proper Planning = The Keys to Success

Monday, September 12, 2011

As I logged in my nutrition selections for the day, I realized that I have been sabotaging myself on some level by snacking instead of eating. Yesterday was a good day, but today I ate mindlessly.

Eating is making healthy choices with adequate calories. I've been snacking on healthy/bad foods while at the same time starving myself of the good calories my body needs.

As I plan my week, I must make it a point to ,again, eat consciously. This is something I am going to have to have drilled into my head or tattooed on my hand. This will be the key to success.

Putting It All Out There

Tuesday, September 06, 2011

Karma just slapped me in the face. I just posted a comment on my page an in no less than 2 minutes, I read an entry from one of my favorite bloggers about her struggle with weight.

She detailed childhood weight issues, and although not much of an issue now, she still carries the shame of being overweight. I could identify with her pain on many levels, but one thing she said resonated with me today: "everything I eat must be a conscious decision."

Now I know this, but I guess because of the statements I wrote earlier today, I received more clarity and a zeal to finish the race TODAY. Tomorrow will start another struggle and knowing me, I'll need another story, quote or inspiration. But today, I am grateful for the chance to just put it all out there.
