New Orleans caught up with me

I had a bit of a disappointment yesterday morning when I weighed in and found myself up two pounds. I have to chalk it up to the extra eating in New Orleans along with the lack of exercise lately as well as the extra eating I did the last week. I've been unmotivated in general, which has all bled into the back slide.

One change I'm making is I'm going to be looking at limiting my points on a daily basis. While I'm allotted 44 on any given day, I'm going to limit myself to 40 just as a personal trimming measure. While it's not a huge deal, it's going to hopefully help me make a difference mentally.

Part of me is very tempted to start parking my car at the MARTA park and ride in the morning and taking the bus up to the park and ride lot across from work just to help me avoid the temptation of going out for lunch. I'll likely end up not doing it, but I might go back to going to the gym at lunch as a different measure.

Regardless, I need to get back on a solid downward trend and off of this episode of doldrums on the seas of weight loss.

  1. Backslides are unavoidable, so it's great to see you meeting yours with motivation to make it better.
