The past couple days have been tough with all the nerves and anticipation, but I did do a few things right today...*Only had time for coffee and an apricot before running to the interview, but had my oatmeal when I got back and was starving.
*Water, water, water.
*Planned and tracked my food.
* Finished dinner and was still feeling the desire for food -- not actual hunger, just that mouth-y craving for more. I almost gave in to the peanut butter jar again, but forced myself to wait until the food actually settled in my stomach and told my brain that all was well. Very happy I did.
*Did 15 minutes on the elliptical, and then cut it short from boredom and decided I would walk to the bank to deposit a check instead.
*Spent the evening drinking tea to keep myself occupied.
*Did NOT stop off for a bottle of wine (or the ingredients for a margarita which is what I was truly craving) on the way home from HomeGoods (a.k.a. My Never Fail Boredom-Fix Destination).
The question for the rest of the evening: Who Will Win: Me or the Peanut Butter?
Place your bets.
I think you can win!! These recap posts are such a great idea. I love how you are focusing on what you did right.
ReplyDeleteI am stealing your ticker idea. I think maybe having that visual reminder at the top of my blog will keep me from blowing off the diet and exercise.
