Day 28

Even though I ate sort of sparingly last night, I still feel like I overate. And just like before I started this whole thing, food remains "on the brain" constantly. It's always there, sort of taunting me.

I'm in my head too much about this. Hopefully that will subside. Or, not. Perhaps I'm going to have to live with this for the rest of my life. Always wondering what the best choice is, desiring the wrong choice, then stopping myself and making the right decision anyway.

One thing that happened last night is, I knew the best choice for dinner (from Roman's), that is, I could have gotten the grilled chicken Caesar salad, but instead went for the California press wrap. It was more food, more fattening, and delicious. But it stuck in my mind as being "bad for me," while I was also at the same time repeating to myself that I shouldn't live life out of bounds.

Oh, well. It was a good day nevertheless.

So, the facts:

Day 27 food:

Shake (banana, blueberries, splash of OJ, ice, vanilla non-fat yougurt)
Water
Grilled chicken and wild rice (three small lumps of chicken, small portion of rice)
Water
Quaker Quakes rice cakes (1 serving)
Water
California press wrap (chicken, avacado, peppers, cheese)
Small salad
Water

Day 27 exercise: Three long walks (still haven't run...)

Daily weight: 256 lbs. (down 31)



So that's about it. Today's the last day of Week 4. Then onto Week 5. I think this is the longest I've made something like this work. I don't stop and pat myself on the back too much, but I think I'm doing pretty good. Yesterday was a sort of tough day mentally, but I need to stop and acknowledge myself and my successes.

Anyway, onward and upward. Thanks for reading!
