It has taken me all day to decide what I want to write on here tonight. I truly am not up to talking about my week and the result of the weigh in today. That being said, with me you get the good or the bad, it is what it is.
I'm incredibly disappointed in the result of today, yet I can't wrap my head around why. Usually you don't read the result until near the end of the post for the week, but I'm just going to spill it. This week I stayed the same. I know, I didn't gain, and actually lost body fat, but I'm incredibly annoyed by having "maintained" a weight I despise for another week. So, why did I stay the same...well, I think there are a few answers to that question. All of which I have spent the day beating myself up about.
First and foremost, I am not eating all of my "allowable" servings of food in a day. I track on the BalanceMD program everything I eat, and there are several days a week when I have servings left over as I'm crawling into bed.
Wow, it's taken me the entire week to get back to this...I started writing on Monday night and the days and nights have been crazy this week! So...where were we...
Not eating all of the food servings is not something under the guidelines of the program. It's important to eat everything allowable. I have a hard time with that when I'm not feeling hungry, but I suppose at least what I am eating is healthy stuff!
The other issue with the "stay the same" I believe, were the choices I made on Saturday night. We went to dinner with friends on the beach and I made the decision to have a drink. Then, another, then...anyway... I drank Margaritas, with salt...and mentioned to Todd that I was really, really going to need to drink A LOT of water on Sunday to offset this...well...Maybe I should have indulged in something different, maybe I should have had one or two drinks...but it was a choice I made with each round. It's clearly my own fault.
That being said, it's days later, and I've accepted the "stay the same" and have been giving my all this week to make sure I eat the right amounts of food, to drink the water and do what I need to do, other than exercise...but that's going to be in next week's (Monday night's) post. I wouldn't want to ruin all the fun for you now! LOL
Here's to remembering choices have consequences, some good...some bad...some relatively insignificant...but always a consequence.
Better weeks ahead!
