Day 2

I'm trying to stay on track.... it's only day 2, and i mindlessly ate a chocolate chip cookie before I even realized what I did it was gone.... it was only 1 so i'm not too terribly upset, but I have to pay more attention. A lot of the time, I eat because it's there, or I'm bored.... it's not always a craving.... I picked it up and stuck it in my mouth while deciding what I was going to make for lunch. It's ok.... things happen and I am not going to beat myself up over it.... but I am going to make sure the rest of my day is on point!

I put my last load of laundry in the wash... and i've sat here trying to decide whether or not I go to the gym and utilize the gym membership I never use.... or go out and enjoy this weather.... God knows it won't last for long.... I live in WNY- snow capital... lol So summer doesn't last very long. I feel like I want to go out and go walking.... but emotionally I just want to hang out on the couch, and watch Channing Tatum movies all day. The struggle.

Who wouldn't want to watch him all day long? lol :)

I also spent the morning making a food menu for the week with the foods that I have so that I wouldn't have to run out and go grocery shopping for things to "start all over" which I so frequently do.... My veggies have a few more days left in them, so I can finish those tonight and tomorrow. I have frozen steam-able veggies, mixed veggies, and green beans salmon, chicken, pork chops, tuna, eggs... a lot of protein... I have the essentials... I really just need to put forth the effort to make this happen.... but I feel like all I want to do is eat. Though, I am not actually hungry. One thing I'm trying to do is pay attention to when I'm actually hungry or eating out of habit, or because I'm bored or dealing with my life stresses

I'm trying to stay away from the scale. I spend a lot of time obsessing about that number. I need to just suck it up and do what I need to do to get through. Right now I may have to force myself.... but eventually it will become a habit, and I'll want to do it instead of feeling like its a hassle. Hoping for a good rest of the week!
