Eating Intuitively

It has been a difficult week for healthy eating.  I am thinking it could be diet exhaustion.  I don’t know. 

I have satisfied a few cravings, one for boneless pork ribs included.  I also did not exercise all that much this week. 

The side effects of the unhealthy eating and lack of exercise are almost immediately apparent.  I just did not have the same energy level.  I also felt bummed about not following my plan. 

The one thing that I think has the most impact on me is the lack of movement on the scale.  I am still down about 90 pounds from my peak weight, but I do not have the momentum of successful weight loss over the last few weeks.

I am proud of my accomplishment, but I cannot stop here.  I am still overweight, and I can stand to lose another 70 pounds, at least.  I need to figure out how to re-energize my efforts.

Although eating the boneless pork ribs made me feel good, eventhough they weren’t the best I’ve had, I should not be eating food to feel good.  I should be focused on increasing my activity and feeling good about that. 

Now that the work week is over, I am aiming to get my head clear abut my weight loss journey.  I am going to figure out how to refocus my efforts.  What are some things you have done to refocus your efforts to lose weight and reach your goal?
