Got my Booty in gear!

Two days in a row, so far so good. So let's look at the steps so far:

Step 1: Goals - working toward them now :)
Step 2: Accountability - made my post today, woohoo!
Step 3: Music - music of the day?

Now onto a new step in my "create it as you go but stick to it" weight loss plan.

Step 4: Weigh Self REGULARLY! - without a regular weigh in I have no idea whether I am doing well or doing badly. This means I need a regular weigh in a few times a week so I don't start slacking off.

Now today's weigh in (almost 164!) That means I actually gained 0.4 lbs since yesterday, bleh! What might I have done wrong yesterday? Well lots actually, lol.

I had a few pieces of laffy taffy and a brookie (a brownie cookie combination that is pure sin and heaven on earth, lol). Neither were a good idea for a weight loss goal. I had 1.5 small sodas, a total of about 10 oz I believe. I had a large glass of wine and I had havarti cheese on french bread (although to be fair I did have light havarti cheese). All were delicious, however, not conductive to me properly dieting. I also had a chik-fil-a sandwich instead of the salad I should have had for dinner.

Now that I know what I did wrong yesterday, what did I do right? (This is an important part of not getting discouraged. I need to own up to what I did wrong and give myself some kudos for what I did right).

I exercises and met my Wii fit calorie goals, plus I did 75 crunches (have got to get those abs back!). I made my blog post and I've started holding myself accountable again. Those are good starts to getting back on track.

What about today, what have I done right and what have I done wrong? Well I weighed in, exercised for 30 minutes meeting my calorie goals on the Wii fit and did 75 crunches. All of those were good. However, for breakfast I had cinnamon toast crunch instead of special K and I didn't measure out my serving size as I should have. I'll have to do better for lunch.

More to come later!
