Lose Weight Every Day
To lose weight, you need to do something about it everyday. Take me for example. On Valentine’s Day I did nothing related to losing weight, really. We shared a chocolate fondue for dessert with strawberries, pineapples and sponge cake (yummy). No exercise, nothing. Yesterday, instead of the whole fang dang family going to the local YMCA, just my youngest son and I went there and played basketball. No real athletic output involved. Though I do consider the time with my son more important than the erg workout that I was planning.
As a result, I weighed in at 181.8 lbs this morning. Don’t forget that I have a new digital scale, hence the reason I am showing results out to the tenth of a pound. Now I need to get back on the wagon and do something everyday to help lose weight.
I brought my workout clothes with me today so I can go for a run after work. Sometimes it is to easy to drive home after work and “relax”, eat dinner then “relax” some more and before you know it you are “relaxing” yourself into not exercising.
A little over a week ago I setup a mini seven day goal of no desserts and no snacks, period. I completed that goal successfully as of Valentine’s day. Last night as I was munching on chips and reflecting on my successful completion of the mini goal, I couldn’t help but notice the irony of my behavior. Here I was all proud and happy about my accomplishment and what was I doing to reward myself? That’s right, snacking.
I’m not going back on the no snack/no dessert regime, but I am going to cut back on snacking specifically for the remainder of the month. Dessert in moderation is fine, but seeing that I have no control in the snacking department, I need to cut myself off from the goods.
