Day *YAWN* Four
It’s late. I’m tired. But I had the urge to post. I have just completed day 4 of tracking my calories. I feel rejuvinated. I feel focused. I feel success coming once again.
!#$@#%% REMOVING JINX I JUST PUT ON MYSELF #%@$%@#$%@#$%
Tonight as I replayed The Biggest Loser on the DVR I feel the motivation again. I have to keep myself surrounded with weight loss…with motivation…with inspiration. When the show was over, I looked at the clock…10:50 p.m. I unconsciously let out this huge sigh of relief, and the reason? I had just realized I made it through one more tough day of keeping my calories in check. One more day of success.
I succeeded…one more day. What more could I ask of myself?
I’d like to know why? Why do we have this weight problem and why can’t we just burn it off in energy. The theory is… the more you eat, the more energy you have! Well.. that’s how it should be.. just like a car.. fill it with fuel and the further we go… Oh woe is me!!! So glad you are feeling better with your mate’s health worries.. Keep on coping…
All the best..
Hi Lisa,
Way to go keeping up with your calorie count. It really is amazingly helpful isn’t it? I never realized how many “kid” calories I was eating in a day. Like when I made the kids breakfast and ate a couple bites of their pancakes or the crusts off the PB sandwich at lunch, that leftover chicken nugget etc. It really added up and I have noticed how unconciously I grab for that kind of stuff. Just keeping myself from doing that saves a couple hundred calories a day! Stay strong and keep up your good work.
Hugs and prayers for you and your family.
