It All Sort of Evens Out
We went to New York City yesterday. It was a fiasco and I didn't end up eating very well, but we walked a lot and I think my metabolism has been jump started, so I still weighed less this morning than last time I weighed myself. Thank goodness. If I had gained weight after all that, I probably would have just a hate-hate relationship with NYC, instead of the love-hate I'm at now.

Bethany! I'm starting a new get-in-shape program now too! I'm afraid I gained some weight during tax season when I was fed restaurant dinners every night. :/ So I'm going to try to start running every day! Woohoo!
ReplyDeleteEating out is the worst and trying to find healthy things on the go is the worst. I have found it easy to get pamphlets or print outs of everywhere in my city. Then I decide beforehand what I would get at each place. It works out great when traveling too if I know i am headed somehwere in advance I look up places that are there. Though it does take out the joy of just stopping by places but I feel so much better that I stuck with my intake that day and still had fun.
ReplyDeleteIt took me a looooooooong time to figure out ways to eat healthy on the road. I am a cheeseburger and fries girl at heart... I've never been one to order a salad or a wrap when there is a greasier, yummier option staring me in the face. I am just now learning how to stick to the healthier offerings and how to eat until I am satisfied... but it is so hard!
ReplyDeleteOne of the hardest things for me to overcome is the black-or-white, pass-or-fail dieting attitude. Often times, if I eat a meal that is not exactly healthy, or if I eat way too much at one sitting, I feel bad and I write off the rest of the day, or even the rest of the week. It's taken months to learn how to be easier on myself and how to quickly get back on track if I've "messed up."
Keep at it, Bethany! I know you can do it!
