Even though girls weekend was not good for the diet this morning when I weighed I had lost 2 pounds. I am down to 191. I am so excited. It really motivated me to do even better and to stick with it. Yesterday I read Jillian Micheal's book  Wining by Losing. It is very motivating as well. She listed several reasons why people eat when they aren't hungry and I really related to most of them. Then she gave some suggestions on what to do in those circumstances and they were really good. Information and options is power. I think I was guilty of eating because of almost every reason she named. I think I rarely even let my body get hungry. I am not going to eat if it hasn't been at least 3 hours since the last time I ate. If I still feel hungry at the 3 hour mark and it is not time for a meal yet then I will have a snack. That way I know that I am not just eating because I am bored or upset or just craving something. The commercials are the worst. I love her suggestion of recording the show so you can fast forward through those. We have a DVR so it is not hard for me to do that.
I ate well yesterday and I have already gotten up and done the walking video today! Yea! Go me!!!
