Wellll, I got a tiny bit lazy the last few weeks. But I am back on track. I have lost about 4 pounds since I began last month, but now that I'm better on track it'll be better.
For those of you who have trouble with cravings (and who doesn't?), here is my favorite trick. Depending on your diet plan you should safely lose 1 or 2 pounds per week (sometimes more at first). Next time you're trying to talk yourself out of eating something fatty, tell yourself, "if I stay on track, one week from now I will be at least one pound lighter than I am right now." It helps.
I've started running again. But I'm out of shape.
Damn. Last summer I was running 3 miles a day. But the important thing is, I'm running/walking (I alternate every few minutes) on a regular basis, and so I feel healthier.
I ate well today! I had a cup of fat free yogurt with some lowfat granola for breakfast; a salad with lettuce, grape tomatoes, carrots, grilled chicken, a few croutons, and low calorie dressing; for a snack I ate a banana; and for dinner I had a can of tuna, plain pasta (about a cup), spinach, and corn. I feel so much better when I eat well!
