No better time than the present.
In the words of Natalie Cole, “and now we’re starting over again, it’s not the easiest thing to do…”
I decided to step on the scale today - first time in 2-1/2 weeks. I am happy to report that I am down 3 pounds. The walking has paid off - yay! Walking allowed for many splurges without weight gain. Imagine if I had been eating perfect all that time too!
Today I started my food journal (AGAIN.) All I have had so far was breakfast, but it was a nutritional breakfast , thought and planned - ah there’s another key. My simple breakfast consisted of a banana, 1 cup of multi-grain cheerios and 1/2 cup milk. I hope my day continues equally well. I have consumed 16 ounces of water this morning and have taken all my vitamins and supplements - something else that has been neglected. Although I have met my walking goal this week, I am going to try and get two miles in today - something new, exercise on the weekend. If I’m going for it all, might as well go for broke, right.
The other day my husband said to my 12 year old daughter, “practice makes perfect.” (They were talking about learning to play an instrument since she has begun a second…) I loved my daughter’s response, “No it doesn’t. Perfect practice makes perfect.” How profound! We can practice all we want, but if we don’t perfect that practice it will never be perfect. So that is my goal - perfect practice. If I fail at one meal, I will begin again at the next.
