New Attitude

This weekend has been enlightening.  I didn’t good on food choices.  I did stay pretty much within point range but the food choices could have been better.  I bought myself an mp3 player to use while I’m exercising.  I used it this evening on the elliptical instead of watching the tv.  It was nice.  I could use the music and speed up the pace and concentrate on it.  I also found myself able to focus on what I was doing.  I got into myself and it was nice.  I have to start staying away from the bad foods and stop going for convenience.  I have the ability to lose the weight. I have the support, determination, and motives to lose the weight.  I can’t go wrong.  I want to see a 2 pound loss on the scale this next Saturday.  I have to make a plan to make that happen.  Here’s my plan.

1.  Drink water, water, water! Taking water in flushes water out.

2.  Exercise, exercise, and more exercise!

3.  Fruits and veggies!

4.  Limit eating out!  When I do have to on Thursday, I have to make better choices.

5.  Stay focused! 

I can lose the weight.  I just have to work at it and make it happen!

    Make good food choices convenient–keep them close at hand and ready to go. I always have fruit, veggies, yogert or rice cakes ready in case of emergency. YOU CAN do it

    Great plan, you can do it, you know what to do. I would try keeping some deli low fat turkey and some whole grain crackers on hand, saves the day for me alot! Enjoy the MP3, how cool!

    beaUtiful Shelley! LOVE IT. You are doing so well and I love the progress. Perfectionist thinking has never gotten me anywhere. You just keep up the great work towards better and better, not necessarily perfect, because what fun is that?!? But seriously you are doing great. Stay committed to YOU. Have a great week! *hugs*
