It seems as though God is making me earn my vacation this week. Last night on the way home I got a speeding ticket on the highway.......from State Highway Patrol, so not sure I will be able to do anything about it.........the calls are being made and I am hoping that somehow it gets taken care of without my having to pay $168.00......ugh..........I drove speed limit.....or much closer to it into the office today..........
So this morning I put on jeans I have not been able to zip as of late.........THEY ZIPPED!! yeah, all the way up!! Now mind you..........the fabric has some stretch in it........but I am pretty happy with any progress no matter how small.......YAY ME!
The eating thing is going well so far. I found for me....all the traditional diets do not work.....well I suppose they would if I could stick to them......but obviously I cannot.......so what IS working for me is skipping breakfast and having coffee all morning.........Honestly, I need the caffiene since I am not a good morning person and the warmness of the coffee seems to ward off hunger.......after a few days of doing this.........I am not really even feeling hungry until lunch time. A small lunch and average dinner and cutting out ALL eating between meals seems to be the only way for me. I know it goes against all thoughts of eating healthy......but you have to do what works for you. Counting calories and points only bogs me down and makes me feel like I have yet another chore or task......so I am not so much avoiding any food........just trying to make a little better choices and watch my portion size. Diets make me feel deprived and for those of you who know me well.........Margie does not do well with being made to feel deprived.........it causes a whole realm of emotions and attitude, none of which are good for me or for those around me.....lol
I wish I could have my husbands attitude about working out.......something he does religously because it allows him to eat whatever he wants......but he also has this thing about forgetting to eat.......if he eats a decent breakfast, it will be 12 HOURS before he even thinks about food again......WTF??? I am trying to break the I must have food in my mouth at all times or at least every 2 hours cycle.......I cannot even imagine that I would EVER be at a place where I forget to eat.........AS IF!!
That old adage, I eat to survive, I do not survive to eat - pffffffttttttttt, that had to have been written by a vegan person or at least co-authored by an Olsen twin along with Nicole Ritchie
My goal is to be healthy with the added bonus of fitting into my clothes again......and so I march on.......
Have a good day everybody!!
