Lucky Friday the 13th....

I am feeling so unmotivated today! I don't know if it's because it's Friday the 13th or what, but I'm just feeling so blah. And it's not even the winter blahs because it's been gorgeous out all week! I'm tired. I'm feeling crappy. I am craving junk food. I won't have any because I'm sticking to the plan and this isn't going to work if I allow myself to binge anytime I'm feeling down.... but I really want to. Every other day this week has been super easy.... I was cooking. I was working out. I was full of energy. But I guess everyone can have an off day here and there? Even my veggie sub at Subway sucked today. I can't wait to sleep this weekend. The boyfriend doesn't work at all this weekend so we are just going to get lot's of rest and maybe do a bit of Christmas shopping. I am not positive what the meal plan will be for tomorrow, but this is what I anticipate and I'll repost if there are changes:

Breakfast: Oatmeal, blueberries, skim milk
Lunch: Lean cuisine, apple
Snack: Kiwi, special k granola bar
Dinner: Lean burger, bun, ketchup, mustard, diet coke
Snack: Weight watcher's brownie

Hope everyone is enjoying their Friday the 13th.

  2. Aw, Denise! I'm sorry you are having such a blah day... I feel like I'm partly responsible, I couldn't email you and entertain you at work!

    What kind of junk food are you craving? Chips? Cookies? Ice cream? I agree that you shouldn't necessarily binge any time you feel down, but you also don't want to restrict yourself. If you do, you won't be happy - this will become a 'diet' and it's hard to stick to diets for the rest of your life.

    You need to find a way to incorporate what you want and crave when you want it. Depending on what it is maybe you can pick up some new 100-calorie-esque snacks that might change things up a bit. I know they will be more expensive, but it could keep you motivated (and turn bad days good!). I mean they have those 100 calorie ice cream sandwiches, ice cream cups, chip bags, cookies, etc. Maybe try one of them instead of your brownie? Or if you are feeling down, you can still have one on top of everything because at least it's only 100 calories.

    If there is one thing I have learned, it's that you need to be able to eat whatever you want to succeed at losing weight and keeping it off. I mean I have DQ every sunday cause without it, I would probably be sneaking chocolate bars every night.

    Anyways, before I start writing my own blog in your comments, I believe in you denise! I know you'll figure out how to get over these rough days and come out on top!

    Love you!
