I tried to kick start the week well. On Sunday I did 1 hrs 20 mins on the Turbo and felt brilliant about starting the day with exercise. Those fabulous red shorts again!
I then did noting until Thursday.
On Thursday I did a weights work out with my four year old in the morning then a 45 minute turbo in the evening. Weigh day on Friday yielded a 0.2 lbs loss. Which, although a loss, really didn't feel like one. My measurements remained virtually exactly the same.
I have highlighted in a few posts that I haven't found the trigger to make me feel yes, I am going to do this I am going to lose the weight. I know I want this but something is stopping me. The food that I have eaten that I shouldn't haven't been that good - pretty rubbish really. I feel like I am almost programmed to want to eat them even though they do not taste as nice as I think they will. I also find that I almost forget the food that I do think is delicious and really enjoy. Some of the healthy recipes I have been cooking the past few weeks have been really fresh with vibrant flavours and I have really enjoyed eating them and felt good eating them. But for some reason they are not the foods I crave. I feel like I am brainwashed.
Something I need to explore is how to retrain my brain to crave the foods genuinely do enjoy, that make me feel good when I eat them rather than the unhealthy foods that don't actually taste that good, make me feel greasy and horrible after eating them and ultimately are not helping me achieve my goals.
