Jumping Back on the Bandwagon

Well, now that I have gotten back on track exercise wise, it is time to jump full on to the "eating right" bandwagon. For one reason or another I have not been able to weigh myself for 3 weeks now. I weighed myself this morning. Not good. I gained 4 pounds. In 3 weeks. I hate having to admit that but if I am going to get serious I need to use this accountability thing. So, today I am back to only eating meals, no seconds, and wise choices in food selection as much as possible. That is my plan. No "dieting". I am creating a new way of life, not doing something that I will quit once I lose the weight. 
As far as exercising goes, I did my quickie mile and a half on Monday and today did the full 4 miles. Boy was I glad I did once I stepped on that scale!

    You might be gaining a little muscle from all that exercising! The real test is if your clothes are fitting you the same way. :) I'm sure you will definitely see some results once you start the change in your eating habits.

    Don't be afraid of eating between meals if you're hungry, though. Just choose healthy high-protein snacks. If you eat right in your snacks, that can actually help you eat less at a meal (because you won't feel "starved" and won't have the desire to "pig out" or anything). Just focus on protein and vegetables, and stay away from the bad carbs (whole grains are fine, though). :D Oh, and lots and lots of water!!!

    I'm not trying to tell you what to do or anything... and I hope I'm not coming across like that. I've just lost 16 lbs from diet change alone... though I really need to start exercising because I'm way out of shape. :P You're way more faithful than I am about that!! lol
