My last weight loss journey: holidays

Posted byChico’s MomPosted inMy last weight loss journey, UncategorizedTags:, , ,

What could you do differently?

Candy, cakes, and pies. Oh my!

I love most of them. Normally I would have said all of them but I tried a lemon blueberry cake ball over the weekend that was 🤢. Not good. Lemon and blueberry are both delicious. It made me sad and disappointed my tastebuds that this treat was lackluster.

From Halloween to January 2nd, the ‘holidays’ represent all the things I enjoy.

After Thanksgiving, I haven’t even stepped on the scales. Nope.

With all the good food to eat, I let myself get wigged out. ‘Well you over eat this week. Might as well forget this whole process.’ This happened when I jumped on the Adkins train. 41 pounds down; when I ate a Reeces cup, it was over. The weight came back. And I’m sure then some.

Not this time. I’m not going to spiral out of control. I did start riding my exercise bike again. 5 minutes a day unless I’m able to take a walk break at work. My plan is to increase my time a little every 30 days. Here’s to trying.

      1. I suppose if that’s all you can manage. But you could shoot for 15 at a slower pace ya know. 30 is the norm & 15 is half. At the very least I am proud you plan to make a 5 min effort 😁

      2. During the summer months I push mow my yard. I’m able to hit those marks. When it isn’t mowing season, I shut off. Don’t want to. I’ll get there. The bike is boring to me. 5 minutes is doable. Thanks.
