My sleeping late is making the days go even faster. I have got to get back on a normal sleep schedule. That is one of the things on my list of to-dos for the new year. They say that getting a decent night’s sleep helps with hunger control and weight loss.
My high protein plan is working so far. I am not hungry all the time and i am eating less calories too. Today i picked up some more protein heavy snacks while i was in town, like shrimp and turkey pepperonis. I also bought several containers so that i can prepare my meals and snacks ahead and keep them on hand in the fridge. I did that tonight, made my own dinner separate from the family and the put the other 3 servings in containers in the fridge.
I am disappointed in myself for not exercising AT ALL since i said i would try harder. It’s a weird catch-22 type situation: i’m so fat i don’t want to workout, can’t fit into any of my old workout clothes and am so out of shape i have to struggle thru every workout. Yet, in order to fix those things, i have to exercise. So, i picked myself up an XL yoga outfit while i was in town today so that i have something that’ll fit. Hopefully it will fit! And hopefully it will motivate me to workout.
I’m a big gamer, so i think the Wii Fit might get me up off the couch. I signed up for the text alert on Amazon for the Wii Fit, they are all sold out every where unless you want to pay an extra $50-60 on ebay. Amazon has it for $90 when it is in stock. I got the text alert yesterday and i hurried up and turned my computer on to get it, but it was all sold out again within 10 minutes of the alert. I was so aggrevated. So i signed up again so that when they send me the text i can buy it by replying to the text. Hopefully they will get it back in stock within a week or so.
I’m getting ready to post my list of things i should do to improve my life. I guess it’s sort of a new year’s resolution in that i am resolved to do these things, but i’m not going the whole new year’s resolution route where you do good for the first week and then give up. My list is things i want to gradually move toward and make a permanent change for the embetterment of my life.
Calories so far today: at noon (when i got up) i had a fiber 1 muffin (196) and a pineapple cottage cheese cup (110). after a trip to town i was starved but i passed up the fast food and had a bottle of water in which i added K2O (30) that is a special K brand powder mix that can be added to water, it has protein and fiber to tide you over for a while. for dinner i made a new recipe that i found (333), it is grilled chicken, brown rice and broccoli made all in one pan with cream of chicken soup, it wasn’t too bad. i am now on my 2nd 4oz glass of my favorite wine (100+100), Red Razz. Subtotal: 869 calories. Nice, plenty of room for the rest of my wine. Wish me luck that i don’t get the munchies… or at least if i do, i will be responsible and have a shrimp cocktail.
I only had 2 more glasses of wine (200) didn’t finish the whole bottle. I’m putting it in the back of the fridge and promising not to touch it again for at least a week. I also snuck in 1 chocolate bell last night (35), how i managed to stop at one is a new year’s eve miracle!
So total day’s calories: 1104 !!!
