Yesterday I made a small step towards my new healthier lifestyle. We had so much food around work yesterday (leftover from a big research symposium). I passed up the cheesecake at a late morning meeting (really, cheesecake in the morning?!?). But then there was a luncheon with leftovers so I ate with some of the faculty. I had 1/2 of a ham/cheese sandwich, fresh fruit salad and a 7 layer bar (my favorite!). I ate the etire bar and then felt guilty. And since I had a .5 lb weight gain after cutting calories and exercising the day before, I negative self talk was loud and clear - "you are never going to loose weight, you're doomed to be heavy."
But instead of just blowing it and waiting until Monday to start again, I REGROUPED! I had a healthy supper. I passed up a wine cooler at a shower planning meeting in the evening. I still had my nightly Skinny Cow Truffle Bar that makes me feel so NOT deprived, AND I lost 1 pound this morning! Woohoo! Regrouping pays off! I can hardly wait to be in the 150's on the scale! Weekends are hard but now I have extra confidence and it is going to be a very busy weekend photographing a wedding and two other photo shoots. I am going to go buy some healthy snacks and good foods that will keep me going!
