I don't know what hit me first- the bloating, the cravings, or my body going into hibernation. But all of them happened this past two weeks, right when I had chocolate in the house.
All I have to say is this; I didn't just trip on my way to the finish line, I stopped at the Brubaker House of Chocolate and had a feast. And I paid for it in pounds.
Yes, pounds. Plural. As in four of them. Now I'm back to being almost 300 again. Ugh.
Not only did I get the Sweet and Salties, I also had the can't-have-just-one-serving cravings. The dieting persons double-whammy. Dinnertime has become especially trying, because I'm tired from the sugar rush, and I'm grumpy and sore from the PMS, so it's hard to resist having 'just one more bite/serving/plateful'.
It's back to basics for me!
I asked my husband to alert me when dinnertime nibbling, having extra servings and snacking. I'm also going to prep all my veggies, so when I do get the munchies, I have something to grab. I need to get more variety when I buy fruit, because snacking on bananas is not a good idea for me all the time! Shopping day is tomorrow, and I have a list- and I'll use it too!
Today is gym day, and I'm still hurting from walking four miles on Monday and two miles on Tuesday. If I go (and I really should) it would be another four mile day because my husband has the car this week. I hope I'll make it! But I'm not willing to put myself in traction for a week either, so I'll have to see how things go when I take my daughter to school this morning.
All in all, things are not so bad that I feel helpless to fix them, so I'm keeping my chins up for this next week! I'll keep you posted!
