Progress: 226.4 lbs.
-6 lbs
I had a fairly productive week with only a few mess-ups, but I'll blame mother nature on those. Just like every month I had my normal cravings for chocolate and sugar. I tried to substitute fruit but it never seems to satisfy. My cheat day was horrible and I know it. We went out as a family to see Brave 3d (great movie by the way, love the redheaded heroines), ate Taco Bell for supper, and Cold Stone afterwards. I did fairly well at Taco Bell eating only 350 calories, with a well rounded meal. Cold Stone was another story! I thought I would be good and have the lowfat cheesecake yogurt, the sign states "starts at only 34 calories". I ended up with over 200 calories. That doesn't sound too bad when some of their ice creams are almost 350 calories not counting mix-ins. I try to stay between 1200-1400 a day but that day sent me way over.
I'm only 4 lbs. from meeting my first goal!!
Even though I have already ruined my reward system I had set up. First I had to get new shoes to help with my foot pain. Those and inserts seem to be doing the trick. I also bought a used Ipod from a friend. My husband wants me to not use the Ipod until I hit my goal, but I was bad and took it out with me last night on my walk. So do I come up with new rewards or suffer through?
