Well as you all know my countdown calendar has begun it has been 7 full days and I'm doing ok. I have lost a total of 1.8 lbs and a total of 10 inches off my body. I updated my measurements page so you can see where I have improved so far. I do feel that I could be doing a lot better however it is a major improvement and a great start. I worked out 3x this week (Should have been more) and eat pretty well I did have Chinese General Tso chicken with white rice on Friday night but I did seem to hinder me, That was my bad meal of the week. I feel that it is good to not limit yourself from things you love or else you will go into a crave/binge mood on that food. NOT GOOD. I see the numbers on my calendar dropping and I hate/love it I love it because I'm getting closer but hate it because I don't have a lot of time left so serious time has begun. The calendar keeps my mind right and keeps me aware of what I'm doing.
My husband has even been inspired a little bit. He mentioned to me..that right he mentioned it... He said we should join Nutrisystem for a bit to see how it works...he did a little research which I have to look at and see if he was right but he said that it was around 260 dollars for a month of food per person...so that's 520 for both of us to do it and we spend about 120-130 dollars a week on food at the store...soo It would be similar if we try that! I was excited to hear him try to help...but I don't know about Nutrisystem I have to do My own research to see how it would work for me but yeah kinda exciting!
Today is Sushi Monday for us. I place we love does Half price sushi on Monday so we tend to go and eat a lot so today will be a test not to eat as much I normally eat like 5 rolls (bad rolls with fried stuff) so today I am determined to get my other favorite rolls the Boston and California rolls really good for you no fried anything just rice seaweed and avocado/cucumber and shrimp and crab. I will only get 3 rolls(they are a lot smaller them the other rolls. I just have to keep my mind in the right place!
Your husband will have no choice but to join you after he sees how sexy you start to look. Guys don't like to be left behind;)
ReplyDeleteHello! I stumbled across your blog, and YES I totally know what you mean when you deprive yourself from the foods you want.. you just go crazy! It's all about moderation! But sometimes that moderating can be hard.. but goodluck on your weight loss journey! :). You can do it!!
ReplyDeleteAnd I had a coworker who was on the nutrisystem for a while and the foods she was eating were pretty decent! It's definitely not diet food so you won't feel deprived :).
