February is beginning to say his/her goodbye…it’s been a very fun month with lots of travel, special events, and parties. Through it all I’ve managed to stick to my eating plan and I have lost about 10 pounds this month to show for it!
I’m facing another challenge this weekend: going to visit family who are big eaters and drinkers. I don’t mind drinking but I’m going to have to moderate that. In the past I’ve depended on exercising the calories away but that really doesn’t work so well! So…if I do drink more than usual I’m going to have to eat *less* than usual. Makes for a cheap drunk (haha)
Overall I’m feeling a lot better, my BP is coming down, and I imagine my cholesterol is too. Can’t know that until I do a blood panel, but I am definitely feeling better.
I’m having deja vu right now. I’ve absolutely been here before…feeling better, losing weight, etc. And then something happens, and I lose focus and gain it all back.
How can I make this time different?
I’m gonna answer my own question. This “time” is for the rest of my life. No kidding. I cannot risk having a stroke or heart attack. I do believe that’s the direction I was headed before that doctors appointment in January.
Today, I’m at 222.2
Lotsa twos. Looking forward to a 1 in the hundreds column. But for today…I’m going to reward myself somehow and celebrate being in the low 20s once again.
See ya later!
