Is it a Battle or a War

It took about a day to lose the weight from the weekend, add on my tilt off the wagon( more on that later).
I think weekends will always be a weird time, the goal tho is to stay mostly on plan unless it is a planned cheat meal.

Anyway, so I have a slight cold, my period is coming and I had a sugar craving.  I waited till after lunch realized part of it was just being hungry. I bought two pack of 6 oreos.  The craving lessened after I ate lunch, but it didn't go away.  I probably could have just not ate them, but I don't want it to grow into a binge. So I ate them

With all of that i'm down almost 2 lbs this morning, which is my total for the weekend. I did work out yesterday and I stayed on plan except for the oreos.  Dealing with my eating and how I deal with food is the war.  This was a small skirmish and I don't take as a loss.  I made a concious decision after hours and comtemplation to eat the cookies.  I don't have any desire for anything else and I'm ok



I kinda felt meh, a cold is coming, but not exactly here yet, so I worked out (21 day fix upper and lower fix). I actually felt a little better.

I'm coming up on 14 days on plan and working out, so I'm planning a cheat meal.  It will be sushi friday.  So now I have a light at the end of the tunnel so I just don't binge



Working out has been interesting.  I feel like my workout ADD is kicking in, but no buying new videos. I have been browsing youtube for difference.  My beachbody videos really are enough tho.  Weird I have no desire to go back to my Firm DVDs.  Realizing I like circuit training and don't miss the danceyness.

Live and learn.

Well I got back on track with the walking. 7 miles in 2 days is alot compared to where i started from and would be nice to knock out 10 miles by sunday (the end of my work out week). Well on 3fc I have noticed how bad High Frucose Corn Syrup (HFCS) is. So I had some lamb to cook and wanted some flavor. So instead of the marinade (which has HFCS) I bought I put some olive oil, rosemary and thyme in a pan and heated that then added the lamb. A little salt and pepper on both sides. It was probably the best lamb I have ever cooked. I think I am going to give the un-used stuff to my family and finish up the rest. Or we'll see. Something else that happened yesterday. I take the bus from NY to NJ to go home and there is a long escalator to get to the bus top. Easily 20-30 feet.....and the escalator wasn't working. I walked up without stoping. I didn't feel like I was going to die and at the top I didn't stop I kept moving to get to where I had to go. So I realized...

Can't stop Won't stop

So I'm about 2 lbs away from my monthly goal.  I haven't worked out in about a week, but I have been on plan for 3 days after the visit to my parents. I've realized the most important part of losing weight is staying focused.  If you fall off the wagon get up. If you are tilted to the side, get straight, but keep going.  The worse thing you can do is stop trying.  Over all I only lost 2 lbs, but I recovered from the bad weekend and my period came so all the days I stayed on plan meant I didn't have this huge gain. Stupidly proud of myself. Something else weird happened this week. I usually drink ice coffee, but its pricey, so I bought starbucks pre-made ice coffee.  I ended up having this weird sugar headache.  I ate food, thinking I wasn't eating enough.  After 2 hours I had a pack of oreos and it went away after about 40 min. The next day I had no coffee and no issues.  It makes me think there is something with the starbucks coffee...
