Today I realized I am probably in this whole thing alone. What I mean is, my husband and I will not be working out together. He wants to lose weight too, but he has a very physically active job. So, when he comes home at night, the last thing he wants to do is be even more physically active. The kids (when they're home) are happy to go on walks with me, so that's a good thing. I'll be walking in the mornings mostly.
Today, I stayed well within my calorie range and all that, but I didn't get enough fiber. I am thinking about fiber supplements and daily vitamins. I think my husband is willing to make diet changes, but he sounded resistant. We'll see when his lunch consists of mostly fruits and vegetables instead of meat and potatoes.
I took a long walk down a very steep hill and back up again. Phew! That was quite a workout. I'm glad I stuck to the plan today.

Hey........having someone and somePLACE for walks are both BONUSES.
ReplyDeleteRegarding Kevin, I'm SURE he wants to be supportive....but change IS hard. I've always figured this: I do NOT want to eat something totally DIFFERENT at dinner than the rest of my family............mainly because I don't want to PREPARE two different things. On the other hand, I almost ALWAYS eat different than them for the two other meals and any snacks. If I focus on breakfast, lunch, & snacks for myself....and watch my PORTION-size for dinner, I should be "good to go". Soooooooooooo, that might be another option. You could take the first little while to just focus on making changes in what you're eating for everything EXCEPT the dinner meal (and just watch your portion-size on that).
Everyone may be more "on board" if you make GRADUAL changes over time, know what I mean?
I do know what you mean! We tried something different for dinner tonight. It was pretty good, but I don't see us turning vegetarian or anything like that. LOL
ReplyDeleteIt's getting difficult to stick to the plan ... already on day 2! I'll post more about it in a few minutes.
Kevin does want to be supportive, yes. And change is very hard. He has to be as ready as I am right now and I just don't think he is in the same mindset as me, which is totally understandable.
