Missing In Action

I have been taking a break from my flog the last month for a few reasons.

1. I had minor surgery on my hand which made typing and taking pictures hard.
2. It has been a very busy time for me.
3. I needed some time to be honest with myself.

Reason 3 is the subject of this post. If I am 100% honest with myself I have to admit that I want to lose weight. I am not happy or comfortable at my current weight. My hips and knees hurt. my back hurts. I am tired a lot. It does no good to deny what I feel. I don't need to be thin, I just want to weigh less than I do now. I am going to make some choices with the intention and goal of weight loss. I am not one of those fat people who eat a great diet and exercise. I binge and I sit on my ass way too much. For me I know when I have been most successful losing weight is when I eat intuitively. Eating intuitively also has been the most successful in helping me to not binge because I don't feel deprived. I know that exercise makes me feel better and sleep better. So....

-Back to intuitive eating I go
-I am going to work on increasing my exercise. I recently got assigned to a closer parking lot at work which is close enough for me to walk, thought it will take me 10 minutes or so to get to my office. This means 20 more minutes walking a day. I am also going to take an additional 20 minute walk at work everyday so I will get in 40 more minutes of walking every work day. After I see how this goes I may buy a treadmill.
-I am going to weigh myself whenever I feel like it instead of feeling like weighing myself is a bad thing.
-I am going to pay attention to fruits and veggies and try to eat at least 5 servings a day. I feel more satisfied when I do this and it is good for me.
-I am going to work on cutting back on sugar because eating too much of it makes me not feel well.
-I am going to concentrate on treating myself well and on taking care of myself. Sometimes that will involve chocolate :)

I don't think these choices will make me feel diet crazy or deprived.

We'll see what happens
