This week/weekend I had more out of town guests and went out to eat more than I usually do. It is so hard for me to make good decisions when eating out. Menus have such tempting things that I know I can't cook and sound so yummy. I really need to step up the will power and make better decisions.
I also have been slacking on the gym! AH! I need to refocus and get my booty in gear. I'm not sure if you all watch Extreme Makeover Body Edition, but this last episode was focused on a man with an extreme eating addiction and his defeat in not losing the weight that the trainer/show wanted him to. The show ended with him checking himself into rehab-ish program to work on his eating addiction. It was nice to see that the show illustrated someone who was struggling with weight loss and not just showing people who really excel. It was a reminder that weightloss and eating healthy is difficult and some times progress is slow or even moves backwards at times.
I went to Target tonight to try to look for some work clothes (anticipating that I might have an interview sometime soon, wishful thinking). I found a pair of grey slacks in my new size, but when I tried them on they were really tight. :( They technically fit, but not in the way I wanted them to. It was a great motivator for me to get to the gym tomorrow FOR SURE! I did make some good choices tonight. I was craving pizza, and decided to get a lean pocket pizza that fulfilled my craving and only cost me 280 calories. I also bought some faux tanning lotion, whitening tooth paste, and a new nail polish color to do a little in home spa night tonight to try to pep myself up into taking a little more care of my appearance and I'm hoping that will translate into a desire to double up on workouts this coming week!
