re-evaluation & new goals

Hey buddies. I have been exercising consistently, but have REALLLLy fallen off the wagon in terms of my diet. Like yesterday, I ate tons of white noodles with curry & binged on other greasy food all day! I don’t know what’s wrong with me, I literally just went out of control eating everything in sight!  I’m back up about 2 lbs to 120lbs now :(.  I have decided that in order to reach my goal weight & to stop sabatoging my workout efforts, I need to create new small goals in terms of my diet. 

First goal is to STOP EATING AFTER 9PM!  I ususally sleep between 11pm-midnight, so I would say 9pm is a reasonable cutoff time for me.

Second goal is to STOP EATING GREASY/DEEP FRIED FOOD!  Yes, that means absolutely no more deep fried food and no more food cooked in a lot of oil, with only olive oil being the exception.  That means no more stir-fry when the roommates make it with a lot of vegetable oil! I just have to modify & make my own stir-fries with a little olive oil or no oil at all!  When I first started really watching my diet a few months ago, I cooked stir-fry with just a little water & used no oil at all, and it still tasted great! Perhaps I should start doing that again.

Third & last goal is to watch my sodium intake! That means CUT OUT SUPER-SALTY FOOD like chips! I’ll admit that I’ve been eating lots of Tostitos chips latley, but no more of that!

    Don’t be so hard on yourself. It’s okay to enjoy food just do it in moderation. A weight loss coach once told me that you don’t have to beat yourself up about the binge just learn from it and move on to healthier eating tomorrow. The best thing for you to do is find out what caused you to eat in that manner and address that issue.
