Yesterday night I waited till I was really hungry, then I had a balanced and full meal.And after that I wanted to eat the icecream out of habit. But yesterday I do not know what happened, i decided to Finish my kitchen cleaning, then to have an icecream. AFter cleaning the kitchen , as if there was GOD himself to intervene, my husband suggested to take a walk.So i decided to eat icecream After that walk. , but yestrday Night GOD was on work with me. As we steppe dout of our house for a walk , we met a neighbour , we talke dto him for some time , this meant delayed walk. So by the time I stopped walking , it was too late to eat anything , except water. Even my son had an icecram cone , but some how I did not feel like eating anything or even sharing it. I was wishing for him to finish the cone , so I had not to finish.Even then I decided a line of action, to throw it in trash can , rather into my stomach. I was happy for myself. I THANK GOD FOR THIS WHOLE INCIDENT.

today morning

Posted on Jun 11, 2008 11:41 AM

Today morning I woke up late , but managed to pack my husband a good lunch for his work. After that I had my meditation, exercise.I wanted to do some more exercises , but I felt extreme hunger so I ate yesterday night's leftovers and a soda drink. I dod not why i felt compelled to have that drink. I think I like the cold touch of it. I think one of my problems is that i wake up late, thi stime I do not know what has happened , however I try hard , i am not able to wake up at the right time. When I am late , I am late for everything.This all throws everything out of gear , ou tof line , this is the way I feel . But today I took step further and decided that how late I may be, I am going to complete my routine of exercise and meditation. meditation keeps me focused. and gives me an inner sense of calm.Till now I am doinfg well. I know that this time I am going to pull my whole day very well.Again i might face some problem at night. The day , I am always able to manage very well. But I ma also determine dto lose weight and bring healthy permanent changes in my life.

the so called last meal

Posted on Jun 10, 2008 8:15 PM

Just now I was hungry so as usual I ate some roasted potatoes and lots of gelato. I like gelato very much , may be because it is softer than ice cream. I ate gelato for 10 minutes, that was eating simply for pleasure , Iknew it but was unable to stop it. I hope this is my last meal of the day, but I might eat again in the name of giving company to my husband, then I may eat leftover from my son's plate in the name of not wasting any food. Thi sis my daily routine . i am able to have a balanced eating at daytime, but the night comes ,I resort to such things which physically and mentally sabotage my efforts for the day. Then I feel like eating as I have already broken the discipline. But the good news about this is that now my weight has become stuck on a particular number, it is neither decreasing nor increasing, letting weight not increase is a big achievement for me . But now once and for all , I want this needle to move in negative direction.

If anybody has any suggestions on this please write to me.

mental journey or mental victoryor mental effort

Posted on Jun 10, 2008 4:58 PM

According to me , weight loss or being healthy and fit is more mental work than physical.If you are mentally prepared or have understood the concept or have embraced the concept psychologically,then it becomes easier to follow all those fitness and nutrition regimens.Today my son was eating some of the junk food, that I really like very much, my mouth starts watering at the name of it. But since I was on a different mental plane at that time , i did not had to struggle at all to tempt myself away from that dish. It was easy like a breeze. Because in my mind it was clear to me that this food is not healthy for me as a whole, I did not see it as fattening food, i saw it as unhealthy food and my wgole perception changed towards it, and I was happy for not eating or tasting it. The thought even did not pass through my senses.

discovery health

Today morning I was watching programm "i lost it". It was very inspirational.These people lost weight over the years. I could relate one of them. I thought that when she can do it , why cannot I . From past two -three days, my mind was full of all sorts of negative thinking. Even to this extent that I thought the only way to reduce weight is through diabetes. I was so distressed by these unwanted negative thoughts.Then I pulled myself back into positive thinking by going through various weight loss stories on web .alos I recalled the show by oprah on weight loss . those people managed to lose their weight without getting anything negative in return. This all helped me in focusing on positive thinking. and I decided to turn my life around this time . This time I have decided to take every fallback into stride and still keep on my journey towards health and fitness.

If anyone feels like me , please leave a comment , it will boost me up.

procrastination

Posted on Jun 10, 2008 3:07 PM

I have this old habit of procrastination.Since I realised that I have this habit, I have very much overcome this thign. But at time s, it tries to spread its wing, the area also includes my eating habits. Instead of preparing something i try to full myself with with whatever comes handy, like ice cream, cookies, noodles, cake , cream french fries, burgers. But now I have started keeping track of my daily routine including what I do in the whole day, I manage to prepare me a nice meal of my fondness. Just now I wanted to eat very badly the ice cream., i reminded myself if I am missing something in my daily routine, i checked my diary , then realised , i did not have milk since morning.so i took milk with cheerios and decided to have anything in the world ,but first of all milk, everything can wait , but milk cannot. This is also a way of respecting my body--giving it whatever it needs most, rather than giving into pressure of taste buds. But sometimes I give into pressure.

Sense of accomplishment

Posted on Jun 10, 2008 1:40 PM

Just now I organised my wallet and realised that how much satisfaction this act gave to me. though it seemed totally unrelated to my health, but it provided an excellent way of passing my time and satisfying my need for accomplishment. Now i feel content to that point that I do not feel like eating .This activity calmed me down and has motivated me further to keep focused.

I was pondering over the health and fitness and weight loss issues in my life for past two -three days. I was not able to decide which thing is most important for me right now --health , fitness. or weight loss. So i was thinking and surfing the web, sudeenly going through various sites , i realise dthat these three things are related to each other-they are inseparable. The moment I realised this half of my dilemma was solved. after this I needed a medium to put my thinking to words, .Again I surfed the net for various blogging journaling sites, but eventually those sites were either too focused on weight loss or they did not have good facility for blogging , a space where I can put my thinking into words as well as can get feedback or also get a steady system of support. I fond Oprah.com the best place and most trusted , and safe and secure. So here I am trying to change my life and in process can get my area of connection with people wider.
