not a diet...
Feb. 4th, 2006 10:56 pmi don't diet, never have. i play at numbers. instead of choosing to buy and eat the low fat frozen yogurt i sacrifice dinner so i can bake the rum sugar cookies.
and once upon a time this worked. this worked just fine and i dropped 2/3 of my goal (weightwise-because ultimately, a number too has always been my goal)
now that same numbers game isnt working. now, to beat this plateau i really need to cut out the unecessary fats and sugars and bulk up on the plain veggies.
but its SO HARD not to bake that rum sugar cookie.
i've started a new fitness program (my goal being a total of 7 hrs a week) and while i havent been totally faithful with it, i have worked a little extra so that i catch up on the missed hr.
now, if only i could give up the cookie and the bite of almond bark or the peanut butter.
...because its not even as if i need it...i just crave it because i've always had it and its...comfortable. celery isnt comfortable, its like a sharp edged blade...but one that will cut away the extra pounds and fat.
today i ate the cookie but then worked out for an hr so it balances out in the numbers game... but tomorrow i'll still be stuck 1/3 of the way away from the finish line.
