So Damned Wishy Washy!!

I was up .4 today. 325.8. This did not happen by accident. My whatever attitude carried over into the weekend. I wasn't careful and I wasn't mindful. Why am I so damned wishy washy? 1 minute I am all pumped up, totally on plan, doing awesome, next I am eating whatever! Why don't I just stay on plan every day 100% and be done with it? I don't expect to be prefect, but in 7 weeks I have stayed within my 1800 calories range only 70% of the time. In the real world, that's a C-, almost a D. Now you could say that I have lost 13.2 lbs, so I am doing good. I agree, but what I am talking about is consistency. I should be staying on plan at least 90% of the time. Which would be most of the time. I am having more good days than bad, so I am losing. But 70%. No way man. I want to be on plan at least 90% of the time. That's my goal until the end of the year. Ok, so a 90% by the end of the year is not possible even if I am perfect (I did the math), which I won't be. So the goal is to get my % up to 80% by the end of the year. I created a little spreadsheet so I could log any bad days and watch my % go up, up and up!!!

I have been looking at my food logs and I am not eating very much produce. I am not a huge vegtable lover, but I like fruit and I am not eating that either!!! So the goal for the week is 2 fruits each day. I realize I need much more than that, but I am thinking we'll just take it one step at a time and 2 is soooo much better than I have been doing.

Still no word from the doctor. I have been feeling OK, but today I have been having almost migrane level headaches. I have been having moments where I even wince at the pain. Not good. Advil didn't even touch it. I don't get headaches and never like this. Never.

Dagnabbit, I was afraid the whatever attitude might carry over. Oh well, as always, what's done is done. Now, DON'T undo all of your hard work, k? I think 80% is very reasonable, and should go a long way towards that bet with the work ladies. Still doing that?

Good idea with the fuit, gotta start somewhere, right? Care to add some green stuff to that goal?? ;D

Hmmm, migraines now too? I'm thinking blood pressure, has it been up? Let's hope you hear back from the doc soon. Take care hon!
