The maintenance plan seems to be working and I’ve managed to stay between 126 and 127 fairly consistently. Love that. I’ve also managed to maintain the ability to have a little fun, which I love even more. I did not give up desserts — just smaller portions. I did not give up burgers — just do them at home, with lean meat, less frequently (H. grilled up great burgers last night). I need to focus on getting more fruits and veges in, however, because I still get hit with the urge to snack EVERY afternoon (and I don’t mean good snacks) — but I’m feeling pretty good about it so far.
Made some small steps in terms of house organization this weekend (having three days didn’t hurt) — but have not been doing well in terms of creating new habits. Sigh. I can do this.
(Notice how my writing was not mentioned? I can do that, too, and NEED to more than ever.)
