Well, it’s my first “plateau” of sorts. I don’t really feel like I’m stuck, just that a number of circumstances and choices came together and I’m at the same weight as last Monday. It was a bummer really but not surprising.
I didn’t get as much exercise last week as I have been since beginning this project. Also I have very little sleep in total last week. There’s so much upset in the interpersonal relationships in my household at the moment that my sleep is being seriously impacted.
I must declare that I pigged out for my two-and-a-half day birthday celebration – fresh tortilla chips, guacamole, maple cashews, desserts of grains and sugar, white rice, chicken wings, french fries. Wow! Not a total pig out spread over 3 days. I did eat lots of veggies and fruits, too. Obviously too many “fun foods” though.
Well, at least it was fun and they were conscious choices. I did a better job today of remembering that I “want something more.” I really do.
I’m also giving myself a break because I’m in PMS territory. I find that my pre-menstrual body becomes a bit like a reservoir -collecting up water. Gaining 1-3 pounds at this time is a common experience for me.
I really missed doing the Victory Dance this morning. The last two Mondays, that good feeling has lingered for several days -skipping, “YES!”ing, singing little songs. It is fun and feels great! Today, only a little frown and an “I’ll do better next time” attitude. I’m on my way!
Time to measure up since it’s Monday…
