Journal de Kireland, 20 mars 12

Today is my first day off in a long time. I work on my feet all day. I don't feel like working out when I get off and waking up early to workout has been a challenge. I think I found out why I haven't had as much results as I would have liked to see. I think my calories in and calories out ratio is waaay to close to see any movement. I'm going to try cutting my calories to 800/day with a workout and see what happens. I've added brown fat metabolizing oils (cla and flax) to my diet which takes up a lot of calories. I've become used to having carbohydrates in my diet. Finding it difficult to cut them out completely. I will do a great job during the day, but then at night I binge eat popcorn. I can't help myself. It's totally crazy. I feel like I'm stuck.

I know how to do what I need to do. I know the theory behind it all. Why do I feel like even though I know what to do, I can't do it. I feel like the older I get the weaker my will power has gotten. I've got to figure out a way to motivate myself. I know nobody is going to or will ever do it for me.

I'm finding it hard to live where i'm living. My mother brings a lot of bread, sweets, chocolate and carbs into the house. I don't think she realizes, although I have asked her numerous times, what her bad habits are doing to me. I just quit smoking cold turkey. She doesn't realize how hard that is, and tells me " you have to have willpower" when it comes to food. Is this a joke???? Not only have I had eating disorders most of my life, but now that I've done something to be healthier (quitting smoking) which takes enormous amounts of willpower she tells me I need to have more. I can only do sooo much. Either she doesn't want me to be happy and succeed in losing my weight, doesn't care, or doesn't get it. Either way it's making my goal to lose the weight and stay a non smoker that much harder. It's also EXTREMELY frustrating and adds to my mood swings. I've got to find a balance.

You should be able to lose on 1000 a day. Consistency is important with weight loss and eating less does not necessitate more weight loss. You have to keep your metabolism going. Eating too little slows it down and you end up in a vicious cycle of trying to cut calories and lose. If you stick with 1000, but make the calories really count. Lean protein and high fiber foods help us lose fat the best. They also help move the scale quicker than other foods. Build your diet around lean protein, lean dairy, fruits and veggies. With working on your feet all day and not eating enough, you will really start to get cranky. Squeeze in the exercise where you can. If your off on the weekend, then get some in Saturday and Sunday. Aim for 30 minutes a couple times during the week, even if it's just a walk after dinner. Invite your mom. Congrats on quitting smoking. It's hard when you live with others. But the truth is that we can't expect everyone to change the way they eat, even though it would be a good thing. Maybe ask your mom to put her junk in a certain cabinet and you can try to avoid it. Good luck!
