Day 6


 The first picture is my daily journal of what I do and what I eat.  It actually helps alot with me eating, because when I want to eat something, I think of having to write it down and it helps me to not eat.  It also motivates me and shows me what I did and what my goals are.  I haven't finished for today, but I really didn't eat much or exercise today, but I will tonight.  I wanted to get the blogs done so I can focus on working out for the night.  For lunch today, I made Fettuchini Alfredo with 2 chicken breast.  I know its not the best food, so I added some fresh steamed broccoli to it.  Let me just say this......I googled how to steam broccoli and its so easy.  All I did was cover the bottom of the pan with water, not much water, added some organic salt and cover it from about 5-10 minutes until the water was gone.  It was so tender, fresh, delicious!!!  I loved it!!!  I even cut the stems and cooked them and they were good and tender.

I didn't go to the Zumbathon today because I was just so tired.  I hated not going because I was looking forward to it, but I napped all day.  I know we can have a day of rest and I even thought about not working out, but I'm going to do a little something. 

My emotions have been stirred up lately, so I have been feeling kinda depressed today.  I really think its just everything catching up to me, but I'm hoping it passes soon and I feel back on fire to keep losing weight. 

I feel like everyone has their own way to lose weight and what will motivate them.  I hope whoever wants to lose weight that you find what will help you and you stick with it.  Writing down everything and reminding me that I can and that results are happening, really motivates me.  I don't eat all the time, so I don't have to carry it around with me and if I do eat without having it, its always something small I can remember.  Also, eating proportions is a challenge for me.  My natural reaction of after I cook and ready to eat is to grab a big bowl and to munch down, but I have put food back because I realized I grabbed too much.  Its new and something I deal with, but its when you realize it and change it, is whats rewarding at the end!! Self control is hard for everyone in something.....its finding what works and changing it!! :)
