Staying busy, things still going well.
Both yesterday and today went well. I haven’t had the problem with cravings that I had last week, thank God for that. I also have been able to stay extremely busy which helps with the eating from boredom. Today Justin was with my in-laws and Kyle took a long nap so I was able to get a bunch of cleaning done which kept me busy and kept me from eating. I so want to hop on the scale and see what it says but I’m really trying to only do it once a week.
The exercise is going well, I finally found something that makes the time on the treadmill go quickly. I started watching Grey’s Anatomy on DVD and every morning I watch one episode. It’s about 45 minutes which allows me to get about 2 1/2 miles in. I also workout on my Total Gym 3x a week. Anything else (mowing the lawn, taking the baby for a walk, etc.) I do not count as exercise, it’s just a bonus.
My biggest obstacle this week will come on Friday. My dad’s branch of the American Legion is holding a tenderloin fry benefit for Kyle and I will be surrounded with tenderloins and french fries Friday night. Fortunately I think it will only be about 4 hours and I will be able to get a grilled tenderloin so I will be ok. I just have to tell myself before we get there that I will NOT eat anything high in carbs.
