Watched the Surviving in the real world video by Michelle today and some of it rung true - especially about justifying the wrong decisions. I do that all the time! I think through little things like maybe I can have one little something cos I worked so hard today, or maybe I can exercise harder tomorrow if I don't today. I really need to change that around and think I worked so hard today so I don't want / need a little something as I already feel so good. And if I exercise today and tomorrow imagine how amazing I will feel.
I didn't much like the advice to not use food as fun. We love sharing meals out with friends, and the food is definitely part of the fun. I guess need to switch the focus somewhat, and make it more about the occasion and hanging out with friends than about the food. Although there will definitely be times where the focus will be 100% on the food. I'm not willing to let that go. It's too enjoyable to have an amazing meal and discuss all the different parts and which were the best. I just need to make the right choices around when and how often I do that, and even when I do, I can realise I don't need to eat it all, and I can even choose something healthier should I want to and that is just fine!
I need to stay strong!
I also watched the Taking Stock video and made myself an Action Plan, and also wrote a letter to myself to open in 6 months. Got me feeling quite motivated and organised. I've got my diary sorted and am looking forward to following through.
We picked up Greg's parents from the airport last night and had a lovely dinner at T&Cs with them. This morning we were planning on playing golf, but we've been sleeping so badly - I think cos it's been so hot - that we couldn't get up. The exact same thing happened yesterday.
