So yesterday marked one week. No pictures to post today, because change takes time. Last week was an experiment. I'm the type of person who does all or nothing, which can be hard because when I feel like I've failed I tend to say f-it and just eat whatever, without control, and with later regret. From Wednesday night through Friday I just gave in to nightly craving. Why is it so hard to maintain control at night? Friday night I ate Domino's and it made me feel horrible for the rest of the night and all day Saturday. As a result I woke up Saturday with determination. I focused on eating protein, protein, and more protein and felt much better Sunday. Yesterday I tried to focus on protein, but add in some veggies, because home girl feels plugged up. Not sure if it is from all the crap I ate Wednesday through Friday, the high protein and low carb diet Saturday and Sunday, or a combination of both, but I don't like feeling this way. I'm on the search to find some happy medium. It's all about balance and moderation.
Today is Monday and a new week with new goals. My goals are:
- To continue eating high protein
- To limit processed carbs as much as possible
- To eat more vegetables
- And to track my water intake to make sure I'm drinking at least 8 glasses (Something tells me I've been consuming more caffeine and less water)
I'm feeling positive about this week because my husband is willing to eat low carb with me for dinners and I have some fun meals planned. Plus, I weighed myself today and despite not feeling like I did my best (I'm terribly hard on myself if you couldn't tell) I'm down 1.1 lbs! Here is to week 2! *raises water bottle and chugs, chugs, chugs*
