Angst

Need to get back on track.  Exercise aside, I'm doing badly with the weight loss and yes, eight loss is important to me.  My knees are starting to ache again, my clothes are fitting uncomfortably, it's got to happen.

So, what did I do last summer that worked?

I ate less.  I drank less.  I ate different things.  I drank different things.  To put a finer touch on it:

No desserts
No drinking (alcohol) at home
No cheese in the house, except a little Parm to sprinkle perhaps
Very little bread or carbs of any bread-like kind
Much more water
Much more veggie/protein drinks
Breakfast every day
More fruits and veggies and beans

Also--exercise every day, at least 45 min - 1 hour
Making food on weekends and throughout the week instead of eating on the fly
Eating out very little

I have seven weeks until UC starts up again
(then a week of meetings, then classes begin)

I have to find a way to get work done each day, but not to be sitting on my a** all day except for that 45 min - 60 min of exercise each day.  That matters too!

So . . . . Exercise twice a day--a.m. and p.m. unless there's a long stretch of exercise one day (e.g., long hike)

So . . . . get rid of any alcohol in the house in order to avoid temptation and don't buy any more.  Period. 

And so . . . . plan my days and my vacation so I have something to look forward to.

DO IT!!!!
