Listening to my Body, Some IE Victories.

So this week I only worked out once on Monday. I think I've figured out what the problem was. I was supposed to be doing prevention fitness personal training, the weight loss track and I didn't like it. I think my mind just said well I don't like it so I see no point in doing it. I also think I just needed a break from my routine. So I skipped the whole week. Saturday I did an old WATP 2 mile and today I did Yoga Booty Ballet all the way through. I plan my workout for the following week on Sunday so I am doing 30 min of the quick fit kick boxing (more on that later) and the toning from the PF:personal training (20 min).

Funny that I am doing the quick fit DVD. I bought it because I liked the kick boxing in the WALK kick (WATP) and thought i would try it with someone else. I bought quick fit and after reviewing it I just couldn't do it. So now 3-4 months later it looks like it will be challenging but doable...Nice..

Food wise. I have been eating intuitively. Since I started IE i had a problem with the eating will I was satisfied. To deal with that I would just eat smaller portions and if I was hungry I would go back for more. On Fridays I don't eat what I have at home. I think it is a bad habit, but I won't be changing it anytime soon. Anyway, I wanted Popeye's, but it was closed. I considered Applebees, but I am banned from their till lent is over. So I went to the supermarket near my house. I picked up boneless buffalo wings, 2 containers of sushi and a salad. I think I got the salad because I have noticed I don't like eating meals without a vegetable of some kind. anyway. when I got home. I ate the sushi and the salad and the boneless wings are in my fridge 2 days later. Not at all tempted by them. I will probably eat them for dinner.

Yesterday went to the movies. I thought about eating something while I watched the movie, but there is nothing I really wanted and now generally unless I actually want it....I don't bother with it...no more settling just to have something in my mouth.

I had Popeye's afterward, again thought about having 10 breaded strips and a large red beans and rice...because thats what I'm used. What I really wanted was the naked strips and and a smaller red beans and rice. My only issue is I had the sugar filled drink because they didn't have any water...at least I didn't ask. Also had some ice cream at the mall. Trying to avoid a repeat of the last time I wanted something sweet. I bought pudding and ended up eating the last 4 in once shoot. So ice cream and pudding are ok, but no point in brining them into the house.

So today I made whetena and only ate half the bowl and a piece of fruit.

So I say all of this to say....I think I am thinking alot less and the IE is a little more unconcious. I wasn't full through any of this. Also it is all very different from where I was 6 months ago.

lastly. I am just realized I am 14lbs from my next mini goal 319. Thats seems like alot, but I am also 4 lbs from 329 which would put me 10lbs from 319. So I am REALLY hoping to get to 329 by the end of March. I think it is possible, but I still need to get past my period so we'll see.

Staying on Track even when cheating.

Usually when I post there is a overall point or idea I'm trying to express.  This is just a catchup post.  Last week I only worked out once.  Part of that was due to working late and just not being able to get it together and part was Friday waking up and being heavier than I thought I should be.  In the end I realized I'm still in the mid 350s, and didn't sky rocket up tot he 360s.  I didn't binge and totally screw my progress so I'm happy. So I do want to list my cheats this weekend. I had a party weekend and I cheated, but it was pretty controlled.  Friday I had a parfait from my usual salad spot.  Thai chili wings from the restaurant at the hotel.  Saturday Fish Tacos and Thai chili wings (yes, I really liked them, lol). Sunday Cheesy potatos and half a waffle for breakfast.  I ate in addition to this stuff, but it was on plan. I was starting to get into the mindset that I need to workout harder and longer and whenever I start doing that it work agains

Doing ok

Only did the second cheerleader video can't find belly butt and thighs, so I might do that tonight. cardio overdrive 40 min, I thought it was really only 20 something. So I'm good for right now. Eating has been pretty good. I'll get on the scale saturday morning. Something I realized I'm never going to be as focused as when I first started this journey, which is probably ok since I couldn't maintain that forever...same food over and over again ...blah... Yesterday I had a busy day and wanted to go out and buy food even though I had brough lunch. I stayed in the office and ate my rice and carrots. Something else in NY they have the calories on everything, so the choclate crossiant that I had brainwashed myself into believe it was 200 Calories is more like 400+ with a class of milk that about 600 calories for breakfast. So i realized I could have an english muffin, milk and saugage (from home) and be just as fine....so even less eating out. I don't want to kno

Some Fail, but happy

So this week I wanted to be lower than I started, but I gained a lb....I'm not beating myself up...I went out a couple times, drank , had fried, white castle, sugary drinks..and only gained a pound...even with going out twice I think I ate mostly paleo other than that. I need to stay away from the Chinese buffet and the French pastry spot. I made chunkey Monkey muffins (first paleo recipe) and they were awesome...no frankenfood and finally have an alternative to eggs everyday. I also made cauliflower rice  I linked the recipe, but I made it two ways.. 1. baked some chicken, and then sautéed the cauliflower in that and then just sautéed some onions and the sautéed the cauliflower in that....bother were good...for me I think I need 2-4 head to last me a whole week. I made cabbage and chicken sobrose from skinny taste. lasted the whole week...and now for what I'm making this week I think Imma try paleo pancakes, bacon salomon croquette Damn fine chicken from no
