No Title

February 13th, 2007

It’s Tuesday late, and all have been doing is lay on the couch for the past two days. Granted I am not feeling too well, still have not gotten my voice back, as well as having a cough.
Now one would think on such low active day you should eat less. Well, not me, lying on the couch equals snacking on everything I can get my hands on.
YES, this also means I ate the entire box of “Merci” chocolates I found Sunday evening when I came home from work on the kitchen counter. DH left them for me with a Valentine’s card. Oh, so sweet, but darn, I knew they were not going to last very long.

When he called this evening, he apologized for not making a better choice. I agreed with him, but I am not mad. Now that they are all gone, I will move on. So, I had two days of kicking back and sleeping off the cold and eating everything but well. Ok, breakfast was ok (weetabix and banana), but that was it.

I noticed the busier I am the better I do (as long as I have good food available and prepared if necessary).

Tomorrow is Valentine’s Day. I talked to my neighbor last time we walked about going out for lunch. I thought I would plan it into my week, but now that I have slacked off two day with eating and exercise, I am not so sure about how to tackle this one.

If we are going and I get up and out early enough I could go for a walk/jog in the am and than maybe for another in the afternoon. This sure sounds like a lot right now, especially since I am not 100% yet again.

However, I do not want to slip back past the 200 mark again. I really do not want to.
The tricky part is that I always seem to eat less when I exercise and eat more when I do not. I know it should be the other way around.
I have only three days left this week to exercise, that’s it. Saturday and Sunday is impossible.

I guess there is not much sense in agonizing over it right now. I need to see how I feel tomorrow and go from there.

Sigggghhhhhhh!!!! Life would be so much easier if one wouldn’t have to worry about ones body so much. Why aren’t we all born equally and why don’t we do instinctively what’s right for us???

Actually, we do when we are infants; we eat when we are hungry and refuse to eat when we are not. Unfortunately, this does not last very long. Soon after we start eating solid foods we are also been trained to not listen to those instincts anymore.

Oh, I could go on and on about how much we screw ourselves over, just because we have certain believes on how things are supposed to be. But I am getting of my soap box, because I am too tired.

Well, not too tired to watch tonight's episode of "Strong Medicine" on Lifetime.
