We’ll See.
Okay, went to WI Thursday night and I had lost 2.6lbs! I did the intermittant fasting all week and it was fine. I was a little hungry the first 2 mornings, but that went away later in the mornings. I would eat lunch at 12 during my break, then eat supper at home with my family. The only problem is getting in enough fruits and veggies in that time box, 12-8. Good planning can help with that-one night I came home and ate a whole steam bag of veggies which said the bag was 5 servings! But then I was stuffed! And on Wednesday night, I binged and ate 3 honey buns because I was not able to go home til real late and was starving and stressed out. My weight loss might have been even better without that mess. Then today I found myself eating because I was upset and worried about something that should have been happy news but had the potential to cause an argument between me and DH. So I ate 2 servings of ice cream. Yeah that’s gonna really help me shed the pounds. I went shopping this afternoon with DD and that was fun, mostly. Looking in those mirrors is torture-they showcase all the ugly fat that I sometimes forget is so grossly OUT THERE. I have been doing strength training for a few weeks, not always on schedule but pretty good, and things are starting to feel tighter and smaller from that and all the 2 mile walks. But then I see myself in the mirrors and oh boy, it looks so bad it makes me never want to eat again. But that kind of thinking is not gonna get me anywhere so I just have to keep going. I have to work on this new plan and figure out just how to do it where I get in all the fruits/veggies, lean protein, dairy, wholegrains that I need, without stuffing them all in too closely and feeling completely stuffed and sick.I know it’s possible, just have to put some time into making it work out right. Well, time to get off here and get other stuff done, so I’ll be back next week and we’ll see how it’s working then.
