Way to go
Myra.
My numbers so far this week:
Saturday...don't know- high! But I got exercise
Sunday...ditto - lots of exercise
Monday....21
Tuesday...25 4 act. pts
Wednesday..24
Thursday...
Friday...
I can't say that any one particular challenge stands out in my mind, rather a series of smaller ones. I seem to go through periods of high energy and focus, when anything seems possible, I'm organized, setting small goals, achieving them, etc. Then, I'll hit a low - not depression by any stretch - but my energy (mostly mental) falls down to nothing and everything seems difficult. It's during those times that I have had to exercise the most control to avoid falling back into old habits - which included binge-like eating.
One thing that helps me through is regular exercise. Regardless of how I'm feeling, running picks me up and gets me back on track - at least for that day. So if I run three or four times a week, I'm guaranteed to feel good for at least half the week
Upcoming challenge? M-m-m-m ...my in-laws will be visiting on the weekend - always stressful for both DH and I. I have relieved some of the stress by preparing Sunday night's meal ahead of time (meals are always the focus with them). Otherwise, I'm going out for a long, long run on Sunday morning to allow the three of them to bond
Will weigh in a day early this week (tomorrow) since I have the day off of work. I'll let you know how I did on Monday.
