So, I've had 2 days in a row of feeling like I'm eating WAY too much food! Yesterday I ate 41 PointsPlus and today I've eaten 39. I'm supposed to keep it at 29 for the day and then use my extra 49 throughout the week. I only have 15 extra for the week to last me Tue, Wed, Thurs & Fri. Looks like I need to rein it in and EAT MORE FRUITS & VEGGIES!!!! Hmmm.... SO what is going on?????
For one thing I made those damn brownies on Saturday night. I did a good job of not diving into them that night, but yesterday was a disaster! Today was better, but I still ate one. I didn't need it, and I felt sick after eating it, but I stuffed it in my mouth. Not sure if I was self-medicating or just mindlessly eating. Probably mindlessly eating - I've felt pretty mindless the last two days.....
Another thing - I was home all day today with the kids - a snow day, but I can't blame my hoggilocity on that. I could certainly have thrown the brownies out (remember Waste or Waist? Let's hope I don't see Waist on Saturday!!!!). I could have turned on the iPod and jammed out with the boys - burning some calories. Instead, all I wanted to do was sit and veg. I'm not really feeling that good, so that might explain my lack of energy. I was also craving soda (a VERY rare thing for me!!!), so I poured myself 4 oz. The only time I crave soda is when I don't feel well.....
Tomorrow is another snow day but I'm getting us out of the house. I need milk, bread & eggs. I need to escape from the feeding trough! I need to get more fruits & veggies!!!! I also need to get to my Mom's house and help her for a while. Hopefully the change of scenery will knock me out of the hog funk I feel like I'm in!!!
So, here are my nutritional diaries for the last 2 days. Don't judge me.... I'm trying SO hard not to! One day at a time, eh? And tomorrow is a BRAND NEW DAY!!!! :)
