We will start with Learning.....Tonight I learned that what I wore to run in on this cool evening was WAY TOO MUCH. I was very uncomfortable and I think that it effected my running. Not horribly. I think I did okay tonight. But, I was sticky hot with all those clothes on. So, I will not worry so much about the cold next time, knowing that I'm going to get warm. Tonights run was not timed. It was a run 3 minutes walk 1 minute run for 1 mile and a half. Working on my own for another week and then we run 2 miles next week as a group.
Now for Living......It is obvious that I love food. Couldn't have gotten this size if I didn't. And, just because I'm trying to lose weight, I'm not going to decide that I don't like food. I like food as a source of entertainment and celebration. What I need to change is the way I think of how I eat. I don't have to be entertained by food every day, and everyday doesn't have to be a food celebration.
But, holidays are another matter. They are the special occasions to celebrate and be entertained with food. But, because I still need to keep some kind of control, here is my plan:
I am going to take my food scale and I'm going to eat what I want. But I'm going to eat what I REALLY want. I'm going to fill my plate once, measuring what I ate so that I can log it accurately. Only one plate but it will be full and tracked. I also will allow myself one dessert.
We'll see how I do ;o)
