Wednesday

Ugh, up bright and early this morning. I said I wanted 6 hours of sleep last night when I went to bed at 2am, and thats what I got, the baby woke up, and as I was pouring myself a glass of water, it was exactly 8am. Lol. Plus I got bit a couple times last night by those fucking bed bugs. Still need to call the landlord and tell her we need to do heat treatments, not spraying. 
Anyway, here is my plan for the next month, until January 21st, when I want to be 215 pounds. (god I never thought i'd ever say I want to be 215 pounds, how disappointing):

1. Weighing every day. I know every person in the entire freakin planet wants to tell me to only weigh once a week, but I'm goal oriented and I want to see my results every day. It helps me plan for the day ahead when I wake up and weigh myself. Either I'm going to be too much and limit myself that day, I'm going to maintain what I was the day before and limit myself that day, or I'll weigh less and have motivation to keep up the good work.
2. Make my dieting known. If everyone around me knows that I'm trying to lose weight, it'll give me more motivation to show them that I can do it, and limit my amount of time eating crap I shouldn't when I'm around everyone.
3. Drink 8 glasses of water a day. I should already be doing this, but I haven't been. So I'm going to try to remember to drink a glass of water every hour for at least 8 hours.
4. No dieting on the weekends. The weekends seem to mess me up a bit, and I find that if I try to keep myself to a strict diet when I'm doing things on the weekend, that I end up binging. Binging = Purging, and thats not good.
5. Making small healthier choices. Things like, when I'm out at a restaurant, I'll order a water, or tea instead of a soda. I won't put massive amounts of salt on my food. I won't go for that second helping.
6. Invest in watching a 30 minute TV show once a day, and work out during. Sets aside a small amount of time during the day to work out, but be entertained at the same time. Makes it easier to commit to.
7. Park further away! I seem to have awesome luck when it comes to parking, I always get one right up front. Well, I'm going to start parking at the back of the parking lot, not the front, so I have to walk further.
8. Not sacrificing events in my life for the diet. This is another thing that messes me up. Its someones birthday, and I try to be good, but end up once again binging. If its a special event then I'm going to let myself participate, just having moderation.
9. Put my start weight up some where, and scratch off the numbers until I get to my next goal weight. I'm also a "listy" type of person, and I love to see thing crossed off. This is guaranteed to motivate.

*Just thought I'd mention that this morning I had an egg and cheese sandwich, and just by using only egg whites and one piece of cheese I cut the calories of this sandwich from 400 to 234. Almost in half! Go egg whites! :)
