Well I’m back at it and this log is a few days late. I’m still working on cutting back pop but it’s been a struggle. Driving for a living isn’t always conducive to eating healthy but I’m trying. I gotta remember to take small steps, build a solid foundation that I can stick to in the long term. I don’t want to end up this heavy ever again. Also my once a month weigh in I am at

Affirmations for Weight Loss

Half the battle is in the mind, so repeat after me until these phrases sink into your psyche… 

“I have learned how to keep myself from overeating”

“I don’t binge anymore”

“I am reaching my ideal weight”

“I lose weight more quickly because I eat slower”

“I do not eat out of anxiety or depression”

“Food provides me energy, nothing more”

“My body is becoming more efficient”

“I choose to eat nutritious food and avoid unhealthy foods”

“Weight loss has become effortless for me” (FAVE)

I like to say these before bed, or during yoga/meditation. Try it. I lost 9lb this week.

A truly healthy diet

doesn’t exclude foods

is made up of foods, not numbers

is varied and flexible

is not restrictive

allows you to trust your body

is not obsessive

doesn’t use food as a reward or punishment

doesn’t have to be “perfect”

allows you to live your life, but it is not your life

does not exclude any food group

consists of foods that make you feel energized and healthy

Unhealthy, restrictive diets never work‼️

Only eating your BMR (which is how many people erroneously reach the conclusion that they only need 1000-1400 calories per day) will only give you enough calories to sustain a coma. That’s it. If you want to get out of bed and exercise, eat more. Eating under that caloric requirement will cause a person (of any size or shape!) to sustain some significant and scary damage. 

The average adult requires 2000-2400 calories in order to live a safe, fulfilling and healthy lifestyle. The typical adult should not be eating under that unless you have spoken about it with your physician and your diet is being actively monitored.

“Jillian Michaels hates her own body and is worried that if other people hate their bodies less, they’ll stop buying the shit she peddles,” Sara Benincasa tweeted. “She’s worried about the bottom line, not Lizzo’s health (or yours, or mine.)”
