Daily Loss 2lbs
Current Weight 159.8
Food Tracker: P2 chili, melba toasts, apple, orange, romaine with chicken
Exercise: 2.5 mile walk, 1000m swim
So the swim and my walk didn't seem to hurt my loss too much yesterday, though I was hoping to get under LIW R1 today...that will happen tomorrow, I suppose. I have lost all of my loading weight as of this morning, been enjoying my chili for lunch and chicken salad for dinner the past two days, and seem to do ok this round with Braggs Aminos and Oranges. All good things. I psychologically am craving food, though. I know I'm not hungry, but I want to have brussel sprouts and red peppers and big mixed veggie salads and olive oil, and the list goes on and on. I am really enjoying the food I am eating, but my mind is just tormenting me with all the things I can't have. Is there a vitamin to help with that? My dictator and wild child are up in arms right now.
And to top it off, I just went to the bathroom and was greeted by a present in the toliet and smeared on top of the seat by my oldest...I went to yell at him, but he was next door talking to my 85yr old neighbor. I am disgusted and touched by my son at the same time...ugh!
For Day 2 of the PHDR four day win, today I felt like I didn't have enough food (lack and attack), that I will always be on a stupid diet (illusion of fixed states), and Im helpless to lose weight on my own (learned helplessness, black and white thinking). Questioning that, I know I have enough food, as Im not hungry, and its in my head, I will not always be on a diet, just til I get till goal, and after that I am committed to have a healthy and full of whatever food I want in moderation life, and I know that anything I commit to I can achieve. So If I want to lose weight, I can. And refocusing, I am so glad that I have this opportunity to feel good about myself, achieve my goals, and change my life and those of my family. I am so glad that I can delve into my neuroses about food and my body, challenge them, and be wiser, saner, and happier for it.
So anyway, looks like Glee is on schedule for tonight-yay!
You have a will of iron steel my frient.
ReplyDeleteSorry about your son, AND happy for you about Glee.
Your PHDR is very revealing. I hope you find it satisfying and enlightening. I do!
WOW!! -2lbs!!! You're off to a great start, you're gonna have a great round!!
ReplyDeleteHave you tried L-Glutamine sprinkled under your tongue to help cut cravings? They come in capsules, and the powder is tasteless. You simply sprinkle the powder under your tongue, and let is dissolve. It should help cut the cravings almost immediately.
