I'm trying, seriously.

Ok, so this morning I weighed around 287ish, but as of right now (right after dinner) I am at the same as last week.

I am trying to make better choices for my meals, but it's just not working for me. I have very little motivation to change my eating habits, but way more motivation to actually exercise. I also had a few sodas this week, all diet though. My addiction to caffeine was to great.

I got some potential bad news about Lola this week. There is a really good chance she has cancer of the bladder. I should find out more details on Monday. But that stresses me out, she is my baby. So when I get stressed, I get lazy about eating. I guess you could say I am a bit of a comfort eater, part of it is I don't want to cook or worry about what I am eating when there is something on my mind. I just want to eat something that is good, easy and fast. The other side of that is that when I am stressed, I want to go exercise. The best I felt this weekend was after I went for my 30 minute walk. I wish this gym next to me would open, it would be nice to o lift weights as well.

Well, we will try the menu again and see how it goes. I found a few different Lean Cuisines to try.

Ugh, this week is going to be tough.

  1. Aww, Gordo I'm so sorry about Lola. We'll be praying for you.
    What do you like to eat? I'm no dietitian, but we eat pretty good and pretty healthy here. I have lots of recipes that are really good, easy, and healthy. I can send you some ideas if you'd like.

  2. Dude, sorry to hear about Lola.

    Have you ever tried the eat snacks throughout the day thing? I'm not talking chips and crackers. More of baby carrots, bell pepper slices, and broccoli. You can even put a little salt on the carrots and peppers for a little extra flavor. The veggies are good for you, and the fiber will fill you up more than other carbs and protein.

    Why not try it out for a week. The snacking throughout the day will help you cut your portion sizes at lunch and dinner. It's also a really cheap snack compared to chips and crackers, etc.

  3. The snaking throughout the day sounds like a good idea. Try and stick with mostly vegetables and stray from the fruits. You got this gwalls man!
