Caramel popcorn indulgence

Okay, so that's it. Two days running, caramel popcorn indulgence of extreme degree.

No more excesses allowed. Nothing.

Day 2

Yesterday was day 1 of the new pledge. Managed pretty successfully for a large part - ate more or less every 3 hours, didn't snack needlessly. But dinner was a little late and was tuna drizzled with oil. Acoidable, esp at this stage.

Day 2, today. Messed up a bit. Whole packet of nachni chips. Terrible. Have to stop eating emotionally, and considering nachni chips "safe". They are not "safe". Too many carbs. Also there is oil in the chips. Eat fruit instead.

Also, didn't make gym on both days. Not on.

Ate myself sick

Tonight, ate myself sick with mixed chips.

Over the last 6 and a half months, I've had a back injury and been off my fitness routine.

Am getting back to eating because of boredom, depression and sweet cravings, reasons other than nutrition.

Have not been going to the gym regularly because of a lack of routine and time.

My midriff has not been as fit as it has been over the last two years.

Continuing this behaviour will lead to weight gain. And a return of all the problems that go with it.

A little restraint and discipline, and determination will go a long way in preserving and improving all the health gains made with such painstaking effort over the last 3 years.

Don't waste it.

This is a crossroads. Take the right path.

Make this the last day of indulgence.

Log in here every day.

Day 1

Better eating discipline though not the greatest.

Had the rice puff things - too much of that - 90 mins post lunch.

Had no fresh fruit.

Evening meal was spoiled so had to have nachni chips and then a subway salad (to balance the carbs).

Dinner was too late - albeit a salad, stuffing yourself even with chicken is not a great idea.

Eat light. Small, many meals.

Go to the gym tomorrow.

Madness

Madness...finished the whole box of paan mix!!! What’s going on??? Last day. Have to put a stop to this and have to start going to the gym!!! Or the advantage is going to be lost!!!!!!!!

 

Missed gym today

Missed upper body circuit.

Legs and meals

Yesterday, 11 April did the lower body circuit. Right now only doing free squats and lunges, without weights. Feels strange when one is usually doing 180-pound squats in the gym. But slow and steady, it’ll all come back. Besides, got to keep the cardio going better.

 

Also need to address the 3 hour meal thing, especially when I go in to office, I have breakfast at 9 (though eggs at about 10). I really should be eating by 12.30 PM but it ends up being late and I end up snacking on all sorts of things and I’m not sure whether it is appropriate.

 

Must try and eat a definite, healthy snack and eat lunch at a pre-determined, regular time.

 

Run

5 kms in 35 mins

Yesterday day 1 of circuit - upper body,

Let's hope this time it'll be regular at least 4 times, if not 5 times a week.
