Well I know it's been a few days. Not a lot of excitement is going on so why write about nothing. That would be boring, well more boring. I made it to the gym this week on Mon., Wed. & Fri. That was my goal for the week and I did it. Due to a moment of complete insanity I decided to set my alarm for 6am, instead of the usual 7am, on those days so I could get up, go to the gym and get home in time to wish the men a good day before they left. Well I don't know why, but it worked. I am not a morning person by any means but for some reason I was able to get up and get going and without coffee on top of that. Of course I do have my coffee when I get home. I hope that will work out next week. I guess I'll have to wait and see.
Now on to eating right. I've really been struggling with that. I've had this app on my phone called LoseIt. I've used it in the passed with some success (if I stick with it that is) so I thought I really should give it a try again. At least get in the habit of recording everything I eat. That's the hard part. I'm good for a couple of days then it all goes to hell. The app is really easy to use and I think it's free. You can save the foods you eat on this app so all you have to do is find them on the list and hit add. There is also a database of foods and restaurants to search through. A new feature I noticed is a bar code scanner. I haven't tried it yet, but that is interesting. It certainly would be a time saver to just scan something. I will definitely check into that.
My next hurdle is wine. I'm going to have to cut back on that. It will be difficult. I love having a couple of glasses of wine in the evening while watching TV. So what if it's every evening right? How many calories can 2 glasses have? 125 calories a glass? Really? Oh come on. That can't be right. Oh crap. Well one thing at a time. I've made it to the gym for 2 weeks. My goal is three days a week for six weeks to see if that becomes a habit. Next goal is to keep a record of foods I eat and hopefully make better choices. I'll work on the wine thing later. Much later.
