What Can I Change in Eight Weeks? Part Four

Sometimes everything seems dead and thorny
It can be hard to see past the desperate situation



Thank you for coming over to read the final part of
What I Can Change!
It might be the final, but it won't be the last!

Week Seven
Part One, What I Can Change in Eight Weeks!
Part Two, What I Can Change, Part Two
Part Three, What I Can Change, Part Three!


*January 29*
Monday
 I didn't change my exercise routine, this week. I can stick with this plan for two more weeks. Ate some sodium bombs on Sunday and Monday.

*Jan 30*
Tuesday
The snow missed us. That doesn't bother me. The best snow storm is the one that never happens.

*Jan 31*
Wednesday
I had a huge, major setback, today. I seem to have gained three pounds in two days. As you can imagine. That has made me extremely upset. It feels like two steps forward and two steps back. Feels like spinning wheels.

Now that I have had my pity party. Time to pick myself up. Dust  off the fluff and keep on moving. Can't let a small setback derail my progress. Maybe it's just water weight?

I did reach my exercise goal.
I had to give myself the You Are Amazing sticker.
I was feeling so bummed



*February 1*

Thursday

Two steps forward and two steps back. Sounds like a dance?

So I'm going to be cheesy and dance.

*Feb 2*

Friday

It was definitely water weight. I weigh myself three times a week. It only really counts on Sunday. Unless it starts to bum me out.

It's really cold outside!



*Feb 3*

Saturday

Been having a hard day. Going to use prayer and faith not food to get me through.

Started over by working on my Number 3 New Year's Resolution.

New Year's Resolution Update!



*Feb 4*

Sunday

Last weeks weight 136.9

This weeks weight 140.2

The scale isn't my enemy. Food isn't my enemy. Some types of food are full of sodium and cause water weight gain.

 

Update on Saturday. The situation that grieved me so terribly. I would have usually drowned my sorrow in a bag of cheese snacks. I didn't the situation was a miracle. Not turning to food was a miracle Thank You Lord!

Plus a what could have been a major snow storm. Ended up being a rain event. Double Thank the Lord!

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Week Eight

*Feb 5*

Monday

The crisis on Saturday. That would have upset me so much in the past. Has fully resolved. Thank you Lord!

I can't wait until next week. When I get to change my exercise routine. I am getting so bored with my current one.

Mandie was sick all this weekend. She is much better now

It was supposed to be cold and frigid today. It really wasn't that bad.

*Feb 6*

Tuesday

Had planned to hide rocks today. Small crisis instead, but life is what happens when you've made other plans.

 

*Feb 7*

Wednesday

This song has helped my out so much! I hope that it can help you, too.

*Feb 8*

Thursday

Had another crisis, today. Why does life have to be one crisis after another? It's so hard.

*Feb 9*

Friday

Note to self. Don't drink coffee close to bed time. It will result in staying wide awake. Plus your skin feeling like you have the creepy crawlies. The only way to describe Creepy Crawlies is crickets running through my skin. With little Tasers tied to their legs. So annoying. 

*Feb 10*

Saturday

Had a bad cold. Couldn't exercise today. Could barely put one foot in front of the other. That is a good excuse. 

 

*Feb 11*

Sunday

Week One 142.6 (Monday 12/18/17)

Last Week 140.2

This week 139.8

Total Lost in eight Weeks? Almost 3lbs

 

Had a calzone for lunch. I used to love stuff like that. Now that I am trying to eat healthier. It wasn't all that great.

In Conclusion!

Lessons from the past eight weeks? I can do this! With exercise and making better food choices. Never been able to stick to a strict diet. Cut out an entire food group. (This girl eats pasta. Not Zoodles real pasta) Monitoring the triggers in my life that cause a binge. Dealing with them. Instead of binging. I can do this!

While this is the final blog of this series. It is far from the last. Hope to see you again soon!
