How this week REALLY went
Let's be honest here. This week has been rough. If you were to ask me in person, I would probably say 'I struggled a bit more but it's all good' when in all reality, it's not good. I really tried to do better on my eating last week and was very disappointed that I didn't lose anything. Granted I am still working on my weekends but I thought I had done ok. But instead I maintained. And that for some reason, really bothered me. So instead of moving past it, and doing better the next week, which is what I usually do, I ended up allowing my emotions to dictate what I ate regardless of how many points it was. I wanted it, I ate it. In fact, I am pretty sure I will gain weight this week. I know what I need to do, I just haven't figured out how to go about doing it. I plan on cutting back/out on sugar and carbs. I don't normally drink any juices anyways so that isn't an issue but I do need to drink more water and probably less Crystal light tea *aspartame is really not good for you!*. I need to stop allowing chips, cookies, junk food to remain in my house and if we have parties, I need to make sure that it goes home with whoever brought it or that Jake makes sure it's at work the next day so it's not here tempting me. I know that cutting out sugar completely wont happen but I also know that if it's not in my house, I would go seek it out and I wont go to the store to seek it out either. Mostly cause now we are doing the cash system for our groceries and we have to watch what we get or no $ for groceries and really, it's a waste of gas to go to the store for something so small. And even when I go buy groceries, I don't buy sugar. It's what is left in my house that I am eating! So, tonight, hopefully, I am doing a kitchen purge and sending it all to work with Jake. Funny thing is, the guys at work love it! They like getting goodies when I purge stuff :P So, here they go! More for them! I know this week was bad, and I know I should not have allowed my emotions to dictate what I eat. That is never a good thing! I know I will have gained this week but I know this so it wont be quite as disappointing to see that number go up. And I also know that I will do better this week. I will make sure I have what I need in place to make sure I do well. And if that means sending the crap to work with Jake and eating nothing but fruit for a week, thats what I will do! I just need to stop eating crap!!
