Hello ladies! Hope you all are having a great weekend!! Mine has been great so far. Partied with the sorors and frat last night, didn't end up getting home until 6am, YIKES! But my work is never finished, so I'm back up and about to start my day. Crazy thing...I wouldn't have it ANY other way! Just call me crazy, lol.
But about that title...I've been being real lax about what I eat and HOW much I eat. I can NOT get comfortable and think I can eat whatever the hell I want to. Because what's going to happen is my weight is going to creep back up and that is DEFINITELY not going to happen. It's just that I never have enough time in the day, so I end up eating something quick for lunch and usually not even having time for dinner. This is not good and I know the weight will begin to creep back up if I continue on this path. It's really scary because I love that I've met my 10% weightloss goal and back in ONDERLAND. So I have to get it together and I need something/someone that I know will hold me accountable.
So here's my plan of action:
Meal plan on Sunday, grocery shop for it AND stick to it.
Exercise, Exercise and MORE exercise.
Quit making excuses
Make my weightloss a priority [again]
Plan for days where I will not be able to cook or make my healthy meals
Pass up foods that are unhealthy, it's just simply not worth it.
I think that's a good start. Do yall? Am I missing anything? You know I'm always open to suggestions.
I'm not doing horribly right now. Like I still eat breakfast that includes fruit but I don't eat snacks and I usually eat heavy not so healthy lunches and miss dinner. So in my head I'm like "Ok, this one big meal is just the points I would have used for snacks and a small dinner." That's definitely not the way think and the scales will show that Tuesday.
So, this plan is for me to start being PROactive before I get so far deep that I have become REactive. It's much easier to be proactive than reactive. Right?
So today is the last day of eating on a whim and menu planning and eating right starts tomorrow! That's my story and I'm sticking to it!
Ok, have a good weekend ladies, ciao!

Awesome!!
That is so great you lost 12 lbs in the 5 weeks you were "away" from WW. Away, my tushie!! You rocked it still!! Yay you!!
It sounds like you've got a good plan there. I would add eat often on there. Remember when you eat one big meal and skip other meals and snacks it totally messes up your metabolism. :)
You are absolutely right that it's better to be proactive vs. reactive. I wish I could remember that. How sad is it to keep gaining and losing the same couple pounds? *sigh* As long as we all keep on striving to get to our goals, that's what matters: progress, not perfection!
I'm actually doing the Couch to 5K Program. I've been running for a while. I'm in Week 6 of this program, but I was doing my own thing before that. I actually like the structure of this program. It does build you up gradually. And I've run for 25 minutes before. But after being sick last week and not running for a while, I freaked. I had myself talked out of it before I even started. I know I can do it. I just have to talk myself into it ahead of time first. LOL! Thanks for the comment!
Look at how beautiful you are!! Those are fabulous pictures!! Oh, and, yea, if my daughter ever pulls the "I'm pregnant" on April Fools Day ( or any other day!!! LOL) I am going to send her to the convent!!!
Looking hot, girl! So are your sisters! And I don't see anything missing from your plan of action...it looks so good that I'm going to just have to steal it! :)
