I am feeling much better than I was three months ago and am just generally really proud of myself for making healthy choices and not beating myself up when I have a little splurge here and there. I am learning that splurges and treats are a valuable part of life and so long as I am honest about them and I plan them, they are well worth it. With some hard work I am wearing down my all-or-nothing mentality and honestly I am feeling pretty good about myself for a change!
This week I lost 1 pound, which brings my total to 32 pounds in 13 weeks.
Today we are leaving for a camping trip and I'm trouble shooting a potential food trap by planning my food ahead of time. I have allotted myself lots of great treats and even a couple of beers, but I am staying within my calorie target. I find that it helps me a lot to know how much I can eat before I sit down to a meal. If I have boundaries, I normally will not overstep them. When I don't, I miscalculate how much I can/should eat.
