So far, so good. Of course that lovely stomach bug helped a little. Not in losing any weight amazingly. You'd think 3 days of not eating might have an effect. Such is my life. But...it did help "reset" things a little. I admit I got into a really bad habit through the holidays of just grabbing whatever, whenever to eat. Having no appetite for several days (why couldn't it stay gone?) helped me to get back to smaller portions, eating when my stomach is growling rather than when I feel like it, and detaching from the need for sweet.
I have done pretty well with my first round of goals. I am drinking more water. I am getting up earlier (though it's closer to 6 than 5:30...still working on that). I am remembering my supplements. And I did yoga twice this past week. It'll be 3 times this coming week since I'm feeling well.
One of my future goals is to cut out sweet, both real sugar and artificial. I think being too hooked on the "sweet" flavor just isn't good, even if it's a zero calorie sweet. I've stopped drinking diet soda (1-2 a week). I still have some crystal light type drinks, but after I make some I add about 2 parts extra water so it has that watered down "sports-ade" type taste. And I'm fine with that.
This next week school ramps up a notch with writing new kinds of papers in a new kind of way. But I'll keep up with these goals and work on pulling round 2 together!
