It has been pointed out to me that lack of blogging and lack of success in losing weight seem to be connected. Not that I didn't know this. But I like to ignore it. Because when I'm not losing, I like to not think of stuff. Oh sweet, sweet denial.
So here's the deal: when I started all this, I was so effing OCD about food. Not just tracking it, but thinking about it constantly, and writing about it, and terrified everybody was watching me to see if I'd fail...and when I was in that place, I lost weight. Now...I seem to maintain. I'm super tired of maintaining.
I've pledged to track every day on livestrong.com. And I've pledged to NOT crap out of tracking my food just because I know I'm going to go over my calories for the day. Because what I want to learn is where I'm habitually going wrong. I know booze is a big part of it (damn you, delicious, high calorie, high carb wine!) That, and the fact that I seem to be incapable of walking anywhere in my house without passing through the kitchen to find some morcel to toss in my face hole is also a big factor. Trying to be more aware of those things.
So. That's what I'm doing. What are YOU doing?
I ♥ you, babe.
