My scale isn't moving it bounces dutifully between 207 and 205. After a week of cleaning eating, I let the weekend be the weekend and didn't weigh and measure every portion. Yesterday I wanted junk and though I didn't binge or any really destructive behavior I had about 300 extra calories (to make my goals I have to be -600 cal a day).
Weight loss is a journey for me and losing slowly and learning maintenance along the way is the best thing for me. The barrier for the next push though is emotional (I think I am mourning my divorce, my son I gave up's 20th birthday, relationship pressures, trying to find the happy where I am living when I haven't been in the ocean all summer
), but I am still accountable for my actions.
My goals for the rest of the week are:
Eat my food plan
Follow my bike training schedule exactly
Walk 9 mi
And on the positive side. My NSV has been with my bike. When I first started on the bike I remember that first 20+ min ride being rough and making me very sore, doing a 3 mi loop was hard (in 4th and 5th gear!). Last night I went on a 9+ mi ride in 45 min, most of it in 7th gear. I am seeing my improvements and I am enjoying myself.
Now I have said it out loud, may it doesn't own me any more. Onederland here I come!
