Thursday is my weigh in day. I would LOVE to see a decrease. I'd even take 0.1 lb decrease. It's all up to me.
Trying hard to ignore the pecan stash in my desk drawer.....
It is always hard to talk myself out of bad food choices after I've had a couple of days where I didn't hold myself accountable (log food) and ate poorly. Anytime I allow myself "bad" foods, it's like I can't stop.
I will Not stop eating "bad" foods completely, ever. I love cheesecake too much. And hamburgers. And wine. And pizza. Ok, enough.
I think logging it all is the key for me.
Another note-my 13 yr old daughter is starting to really focus on weight. She is 5'2'' and 114 lbs. She's well proportioned, not too thin, not too thick. She has never cared much about weight until here recently. It's not that she thinks she is over weight, but it's just her talking about her weight more than she ever has. This is partly due to a lot of compliments she has received in the last few weeks about "slimming down" and they had a height/weight check at school yesterday. She has lost about 15 lbs since school started - for no apparent reason. She is not more or less active than before. When I was her age (maybe at 14 instead of 13) my body went through a similar change... Just part of growing up I guess. But - I want to make sure she does not get obsessive over her weight. I'm just scared as so many girls do.
