a little better

I have decided to start tracking my food again. I know that they have told us to start to trust our instincts, but my instincts tell me to track again for a while, so I'm trusting that. I figure that it took me almost 60 years to learn my old habits, I can take as long as I want to change them.

My shoulder is much better than yesterday, but I stretched again tonight anyway. I didn't get much sleep last night because of it and had a migraine today too. My hot flashes are back with a vengeance. Enjoying the sound of the rain on the roof and reading in bed.

I weighed in this morning at the Y at 181 lbs, for a total loss of 113 lbs and one more to my next goal. Considering how much I struggled last week, I'm pretty surprised I didn't gain. I'm ok with it!

Love, elly

  1. I think you make a wise decision. For something this important tracking the details is more than okay. You wouldnt trust your instincts to take your insulin, or your heart medication. Good call in my opinion.

  2. I track my food 5 out of 7 days. Just helps keeps things in perspective. My eyes tend to measure bigger and bigger portions. Keep on keeping on.
