Day #22
Six pounds in three weeks; that’s what I’ve lost. If I keep
at this pace, I should hit my goal right on schedule! This is the stage it
starts to get boring, monotonous and
just downright tough. You know? 3 weeks
of a super strict diet is very difficult. I feel the urge to start “winging”
it. Not measuring, not writing things down, not planning ahead. SNAP OUT OF IT,
TRISHA! Keep the focus and stay disciplined!
The next thing I think is "Self: (that's what I call myself)…You’ve still got 4 weeks left! AAAAHHH!!"
Today, my calories totaled 1208 and I did a whopping 115-minutes
of Zumba! I can’t get my Monday’s right. No “real” breakfast again. SHHEEESH!! I
feel so silly telling you my food everyday! But, at least one person has said
that helps them with choices. SOoooo, I’ll continue to do for the next 25 days.
I’m writing it down anyway, it’s just a quick cut and paste—so no, biggie. Here
it is…same ol’ same ol’!

Have you ever noticed how nearly everything revolves around food?
“Best wishes on your marriage, Cut
the Cake!”
“So sorry for your loss, here
is a casserole.”
“Way to go Shockers,
Pass the dip.”
“Congratulations on your Retirement, Cheers!”
“Congratulations on your Retirement, Cheers!”
“Happy Easter, Merry Christmas, Happy 4th of
July, Here’s some candy, cookies and a flag shaped cake!”
“Welcome to our
Church, Have a donut!”
It is never ending! It’s no wonder so many people
struggle with their weight. Food is
everywhere…literally on EVERY corner. We live in a country of abundance! We
have more food in our trash cans, than probably half of the world….but I
digress. I say all that to point out—Since we have friends and family (which I
hope you all do) you just have to know “functions” include food. Planning and
moderation is the only way to navigate through all that we get to encounter!
Sometimes by saying, “No thank you!” to the donut lady at church, you can say, “Yes,
please!” to that slice of pizza at the Shocker party!
