Ugh. I'll cut to the chase- ever since I got back from my friend's wedding, I've been letting myself slack. I certainly haven't given up, or even come close... I just think I lost a little motivation for two reasons:
1: I'm pretty certain I'll no longer make my goal of under 200 by January 1st
2: I no longer have a huge event (a wedding) to tone for.
So, in an effort to be honest with myself and accountable to you who are reading this, I'm going to do some before and afters... comparing my habits now to last month's habits.
Before: Didn't eat one candy from the stash at work.
After: I'll let myself have about 5 or 6 a day. Those stupid "minis" add up.
Before: Cardio three times a week, lifting twice a week
After: Cardio twice a week, lifting maybe once....
Before: Sweets three times a week
After: Sweets every day
Before: No bread, hardly any flour products
After: Just ordered grilled chicken linguini from OCharley's, and I had a roll. I also have been eating some toast or something every once in a while.
Before: Lots of water
After: Some water, lots of coffee
Before: No eating after dinner
After: Snack after dinner if I can't help myself
Before: Big, healthy breakfast
After: Maybe a McMuffin?
I'm not making huge changes that completely throw away what I've accomplished, but all those little changes or exceptions are not allowing me to lose any substantial weight this month. Check out my weight log for the last 30 days. Can't get past 216, and it's pretty obvious why.
