So for the first time in a year I gave myself permission to have whatever I wanted. I found that what I really wanted was bread. Warm hot bread with a touch of butter. Life is good. But back to reality is a little harder.
So I ordered everything I wanted, and ate not everything I wanted, but I ate a little of everything. I know I could have eaten more and more and more, but I did restrain myself, and now I have five days to lose it again. If I break even this week, that will be really good.
I am having some difficulty adjusting back to eating correctly. I find that I want to eat more then I usually did before, so it is a struggle these last couple of weeks not to eat too much.
I know that it has to do with the swimming and my body thinks I need more food to compensate, and my head doesn't always win out.
I remember listening to people talk about exercising so they could eat. I have thought a lot about that and I have to say that I am dieting so I can exercise. I need to remember that when I want to go off plan. What is the ultimate goal? To be thin or be physical? Def physical.

T3 - you did GREAT at dinner! You took small portions & just ate samples of all & you didn't finish anything (unlike TSH who cleaned his plate & took a couple of bites off yours PLUS both your cornbrea slices - yum!!!)
ReplyDeleteYou also were WAY MODERATE on the cheese cake.
I'm in awe & I'm not trying to butter you up for anything.
Physical is better than thin, but the way you're going, you'll hit BOTH
Yay LOML!
Yeah, Babe, eye on the prize: Ride across America. Whoooo hooooo!
