Slacking on My Tracking

Day 46 - No Bingeing!


I haven't binged in a month and a half and I am seriously impressed with myself. I think the key has been that I have combined weight watchers with some intuitive eating skills. I am staying within my points, but I am eating what I feel like eating. This includes plenty of fruits and vegetables, but also one cup of my favorite ice cream a few times a week. I think of it as intuitive eating, but it also aligns with weight watchers as they believe no food is off limits. It is all about the portion and how often you eat it.


I am still feeling very motivated to lose weight but I haven't been tracking. In the city I did not track points, I just made good choices (no bread, no seconds, no dessert, etc.). Because I didn't know the nutritional information when I ate out for every meal, I didn't track. Since I have been home this week I have had several dinner or lunch dates with friends, and I have been slacking on my tracking. I know this could easily spiral out of control so today it is back to tracking carefully.  :) I have to remember that it takes action to lose weight. I can't just feel strong and  motivated, I have to behave strong and motivated.
