349 Days to a Better Me

Tuesday, July 17, 2012

So it's been a couple of weeks, and I am doing pretty well. I'm keeping up on exercise and working hard at making good food choices. I am loving the extra calories that I'm allowed because my goal is so far out. For example, I entered my calories for tomorrow and I hit all my fruits and vegies, protein, etc. and I'm still 250 calories short. Guess I'll be getting a (reasonable) treat. Yay! I'm also cutting myself slack on "special" days. If I know a meal is something I will feel really deprived about later, I am letting myself splurge. So far it's keeping me from bingeing because I didn't get to eat what I wanted. I'm trying to keep it within reason, though.

Anyway, that's where I'm at. Not too exciting. Still thinking about how I'm going to make this work during the school year. More to come on that as I think it through. For now, I'll finish with

    Rooting for you! Think of the school year as your brick wall. From the quote:
"The brick walls are not there to keep us out; the brick walls are there to give us a chance to show how badly we want something." ~Randy Pausch

    I think getting into good routines *now* will make a difference during the school year (at least that's what I'm telling myself!). You're doing great--keep it up!
