Because last night was not great (life-wise, not diet-wise) and this morning I am going to have to deal with the stress of getting my car unstuck from the hill where I abandoned it in the snow. I can't control the weather or the damage my car suffered when it got hit last night, but I can control how I react to the stress. In the long run eating right will help me deal a lot more successfully than eating sugar and carbs.
I will stay on plan because I'm SO close to 50 pounds lost!
Thistoo- Sorry about your car. It's rough driving in this weather. People were sliding all over the place on the road in front of my apartment building last night.
...because I care too much not to stay on plan. It's simple. It's not complicated, but it's about as honest as I can be right now. I care about how I look about my health...but really about how I look.
I already know for a fact that losing weight is not going to help my Crohn's Disease, so I'm focusing on how I look, how my clothes fit and my endurance. I really need to get my endurance up...
I am going to stay on plan today because I have my first weigh-in on Monday and I NEED to see a loss so I'll be inspired to keep this up. I KNOW I CAN DO THIS! I just need to remember it works.
Because tomorrow there will be one more day of good data in my fitday log. It is so satisfying to see all your data over time, and realize that you've done that much work. That brings home the achievement every time I look at it.
Because, even though it wasn't my weigh-in day, I weighed myself today and I'm down 1.5 lbs (AND it's a TOM week AND I didn't work out this week) so I'm psyched! I want to stay on track and GET OUT of the 300's by my birthday in February.
