Monday morning...and I am really starting to believe in this new way of thinking. Monday is always a fun day for me, as I love the fresh start to a week almost as much as I love the first snowfall. That says a lot, as I am a total snowflake fan! What is so cool about Mondays? You get to start over every 7 days!
Today is the first of the many Mondays to come in my new plan, to lose 50 pounds in 90 days. Yes, without medication or surgery, which by the way I am totally supportive of if that is what YOUR plan is. I am just letting you know about my own personal plan. Sooo...Lets get started!
Over the first two full days of my new plan I have thought about what and how I eat. I have come to realize several things.
1. Eating when you should, and when you think you should are two different things.
2. Eating the wrong things does not substitute for a good meal or snack.
3. Eating is a hard thing to adjust, as it is a habit. But one you cannot live without. Fix it when you can:)
Yesterday when I was working with my plan, I had a revalation. I had scheduled what I would have for breakfast, lunch and two snacks. I knew what my drinks would be during the day and how many. And dinner, what it would be ( not the specific foods, just how much and general know) and when it would be time to eat it. Dinner is always on the table at 6 at my house anyway, but this has become important especially when changing other parts of a days meals. With a plan, you know what to do and what to expect. Without a plan, how can you possibly succeed? You cant get to another destination in your car without knowing how to get there, can you?
Three things I am doing every morning to help this work. First, know what the plan for the day is. Where will you be, and what is your meal/snack plan. Second, know that every day is a new day. Make each one a little better, and remember that this is my choice to lose it. Third, believe in your goal! I absolutely believe that in just 87 more days, I will be 50 pounds lighter than when I started!
Today I add some exercise to the plan...and I am really looking forward to it. The dance party on our xbox was super fun yesterday with my daughter. Today, its all about me:) Isnt it time that you put YOU first??? Join me and lets be losers together! Plan reveal in just 4 more days!!! Check back, and watch the top for my new page on Friday sharing what I am doing.
