Week 5 of Dieting

Week 5 of my dieting and it has to get back to serious this week after the week of bad eating that I just had last week.  Last week’s eating was well worth it and I planned that type of eating into the diet because it was Thanksgiving, duh!  It just sounds weird that I am saying week 5 and it’s still November, ha.  I did not eat as bad as what I thought I would though, so I am proud of myself for that.  I only went to 1 or 2 of the eateries that I usually go to.  And when I did go to those places, I only ate half of what I usually would have eaten.

I am still riding the bike and doing my push-ups and situps every morning and I can definitely tell a difference in my body, even if it doesn’t show it on the scale and that is more important to me.  I feel and look thinner and that is a large step because it shows that I am not just doing this all for no reason at all.  There are times when I am dieting that I just see no results and I get discouraged and decide to stop dieting and just say screw it.

I am not going to be doing that this time around.  If I can still be down 5 pounds by the end of the month then I will be happy. Then another 5 by december and I will be even happier.  Of course I would like to lose more, but that is my minimum goal to know that what I am doing is working.  I am already feeling stressed today because I am back to work after a short vacation and I already feel that I don’t want to cook dinner and that I just want to go to a fast food joint.

Well, the month is almost over, but the day is just beginning so I need to stop blogging and get to work. Have a great week everyone.
