First....I've 3 lost pounds!!! I have been using an AP - "My Fitness Pal" - that let's me track what I eat and the calories. The best part is that it has all of the Herbalife products on it! Keying in what you eat makes you really accountable because it tells you the exact calorie count and nutrients. It has really helped me focus.
The biggest challenge I have found is finding my weak points - those times I have programmed myself to eat. One that I found this weekend, is watching football. You see, I am a HUGE NY Giants fan. I have programmed myself to park on the couch, cook up some fine food, a little drink and watch my Giants win (Look out San Fan!!!). Those are our challenges. Those times when we are "programmed" to act a certain way....eat, drink, smoke.... We need to identify those and figure outdd how we are going to change them. I slipped a little. I ate a bowl of scalloped potatoes after dinner. Not as bad as I usually do, but not what I needed to do.
I do not have easy answers. We each need to identify our weaknesses ahead of time and find a way we are going to deal with them. I still have a ways to go. The good news is that since I was doing so well in following the program, I did not "gain" any weight watching football. The bad news..... I did not lose any. At this point, that is not okay. I have not dedicated myself to this extent to fail every weekend. I need to figure this out. Any suggestions???
