Whew! That was better.
This weekend I had to make up for my terrible week. I did great! I survived a surprise birthday party and Sunday football, while making good food choices.
I was inspired by a quote by a fellow blogger…I cannot remember which blog I read it on...sorry!
Here it is: "You will NEVER REGRET what you DON'T eat." Simple as that.
I used to get so caught up in the "taste" or the "idea" of eating a certain food, like I was an addict. You know what; I think I was a food addict. I didn't care if it was healthy or not, if I liked it, it was going into my mouth. Now I'm much more calculated in my assault on food. I think about how I will feel afterwards. Will I regret it? Is it worth an extra 30 minutes of exercise just for that little bite of cake? HELL NO! I would rather NOT eat it, and use those 30 minutes for something else. J
I spent too much time regretting what I ate last week, and in my "previous" fat life. I have wasted too much time eating crap. Imagine all the time I can have now…for blogging, internet surfing, hanging out with the family, playing with my pets, etc…as long as I'm not EATING! (Please note: I am not starving myself, just not eating crap 24/7 like I feel I used to do.)
Happy Monday! Have a wonderful week. J
Congrats on making good choices in the face of changing routine (surprise party) and regular (potentially habitual) food eating opportunities (football). You must feel great!
