I have been pretty frustrated today. My clothes feel too tight and I feel like I'm working so hard to get fit. I'm tired of being uncomfortable in my body and my clothes.
There is only one thing to do. TRACK MY FOOD. I didn't want to set it as a New Year's Resolution because I didn't want to do it. I kept telling myself that I could just restrict my intake without tracking. Unfortunately, there is just too much of a margin of error when I'm keep things logged in my head. Every week I say I'll track my food, but I don't. I even pay $15.95 a month for the privilege of tracking my food and I just don't do it.
The next step is to declare it on my blog that I will track every day. Now I'm stuck. The social pressure of disappointing all of you it too great. Today I was annoyed because I worked out this morning and went grocery shopping and by 8 pm I only had 2 activity points. I was mad because I knew I had to get 5 because I said I would. What did I do? I turned on a video and worked out AGAIN. You see the power you have over me? Now I have my 5 points. I feel fitter and stronger, but not thinner.
Even knowing I would write this tonight helped me restrict my calories more. I know I'm doing a good job of limiting my intake when I go to bed hungry. I'm starting to feel those hunger pangs. My future self thanks me.
