First, a thank you to Kitty and Miranda for being my friends. It's weird that I don't even know what you look like and I think of you as people I truly trust...
Second, the food as fuel update. I had a small break from traveling and visited Steven at his house for his birthday. Monday morning I decided to weigh myself and assess the damage. I never weigh on Mondays because I feel like there is residual weekend water weight you have left to lose, but I had no choice as I wanted to weigh before I flew to Charlotte.
149.8
Now, this is a lot. And I'm not going to rationalize that because its no where close to goal. But if I can not weigh in for a month and still weigh in at 149.8 on a Monday I think I'm doing pretty good!
Maybe I'm really a little less than that since I was holding on to weekend weight.... But regardless that's what I weighed while counting calories for an entire year... And now I kind of feel free
I'm going to keep telling myself to eat food that makes me feel good, and I'll weigh in again soon for a progress update.
I dream of freeing myself of calorie counting. I'm not there yet. So glad the damage wasn't as bad as you might have thought. Love ya too girl!!
ReplyDeleteI keep taking these breaks from counting, finding it too confusing and ending up crawling back to it.. :S Glad you feel free, hold on to that feeling when you get the "urge" of counting!
ReplyDeletePS: There is a handful of girls on blogger that I feel like I know, without really knowing them and you are one of them :) Sometimes I wish I could have you guys closer and that I actually knew you in real life, but I guess we can't have it all.. Right?
I think we do know each other - our blogs are who we really are, the messy stuff we can't share with most (if any) our family and friends. Like now. I can't sleep and I started wondering how everyone was doing, if anyone still wrote and here I am am. Creepin your blog at 12:27am. Lol.
ReplyDeleteSeriously though, I feel like I know you guys and can relate so its not weird. you know?
