Alright. All this self-assessment can be so dangerous and healthy too, I guess. Life makes it difficult to be selfish. There are just too many compromises that we make to get through the day, not sacrifices necessarily, but compromises. I'm coming to understand so many things in this journey. I like to keep things in order but get so hung up when I don't have all my ducks in a row. I'm going to pause the calorie, food, and exercise thinking. I'm going to refocus my efforts on other things I'd like to make time for like reading for pleasure and planning for the upcoming school year. I hope that by diverting some attention to other areas of life I will be more able to deal with my body. I've been spending so much time thinking about food and weight loss that I'm losing inspiration.

Oh gosh, you guys! I can't stop the late night snacking. I know so many of you struggle with the same thing. It's so upsetting that I can't get control of my impulses. I think of a tasty snack and walk quickly to the kitchen and shove it in my mouth before I can convince myself to resist. It's not enjoyable. It doesn't even taste as good as I wished. I know the power comes from me. I know no one can help me with this. I have to be the one. The pressure can be so overwhelming. I try to think of the steady progress that the "diet" proves works. I think of my loose fitting clothes. I think of a flat belly and toned arms and legs. I remind myself how long it takes and how all these little snacks will keep me from my goal. Then I get more upset thinking about how all the hard work of the day is lost when I have another cracker with hummus, a handful of goldfish crackers, 3 slices of cheese, salami, and more beer. I'm so up and down. Where's my flow? Where's my stamina? Where did my motivation go? When is it coming back?

Ok, I'm feeling better today, I learned something new after reviewing my data. I was in a slump resisting calories. After my cheat day I went right back to my routine but it wasn't as satisfying as it had been. I had double servings, snack on Des' food, and drank too much alcohol. I know now that after a cheat day, I need to add a new kind of meal to keep it fresh. I eat a variety of foods daily, but I basically eat the same meals between my weekly food shopping trips. I can't afford it any other way. Last night I bought Boar's Head Black Forest Ham to replace my usual, Ovengold Turkey Breast and substituted flatbread for a multi-grain sandwich thin. Plus a half cup of creamy cottage cheese. The whole meal was less than 250 calories. So filling and yummy. It helps so much to write down my thinking and calories. In looking back, patterns become obvious and it helps me to avoid future nonsense.
Pool time!
