So, I'm two days into the Chelle plan. So far...
- I chose to order a single chocolate timbit (70cal) to have with my tea yesterday morning instead of the usual blueberry fritter (320ish cal)
-I have really tried to limit my refined carb intake (other than above-mentioned timbit)
-breakfast for both days has been one slice of 100% ww toast w/ a cheese slice & back bacon, not a jumbo double chocolate muffin
-NO diet coke. At all. Since mmm, Saturday perhaps? Still hard to get going in the morning, but hopefully that will get easier
-trying not to overeat. Not snacking at night is hard, but I try and keep busy in the Cave or just have yogurt instead
-picked up some WW lunch entrees at Superstore today for this week's work lunches. $1.99 each, and about 6 points, if you're following WW. Also picked up 1% cottage cheese cups and some bananas to keep at the office so I don't hit David's stash o' chocolate bars, or the deli downstairs for something worse.
-must move stash o' candy for the office. It is no longer safe in the drawer to my right :P
But, probably most importantly,
-I set foot in Curves after work today. I was dreading it for whatever reason (possibly not being there for so long?), but I felt good after. And I even walked most of the way home too. I was probably about 2 km of the 2.4 km when J drove by on his way home (he'd been out running errands while I was at Curves) and picked me up. Doesn't it figure that he stopped to pick me up about 5 minutes AFTER I crested the big hill on the way home? pfffft.
So that's where we're at with day 2. I was down .6 today, but I think it's just my wonky scale. We'll see where things are at the end of the week.

As a kind of related topic, check out Holly's post at Nothing But Bonfires (Peaks & Valleys) the first part is about going to the gym, and it really hit home. Esp. with going back to Curves after (another) few-month-long hiatus.

Good for you getting back to Curves and for walking home to boot! Also great on making healthier food choices and not snacking. I know the pop part is hard but it truly does get easier...I'm now on day 499 of no pop!!!
Way to go Chelle! I'm glad you made it back to Curves, and that it was good - perhaps it'll be easier to keep going then!
once you've made that first step the next ones are easier.
promise.
