One of my biggest struggles in the past year and half in my weight loss journey has been being HUNGRY.
Hunger is a fierce motivator. It motivates you to EAT! After eating my Bistro MD food for the past week, I'm here to tell you I have not been hungry in that "feed me right now or I'm gonna hurt somebody" kind of way. The hunger I have experienced over these days has been more like, "Oh. I'm feeling a little empty. Maybe I should grab a yogurt."
I'm feeling strong. I'm...satisfied. I must come to the conclusion that eating this way is giving my body the nutrition it needs. I think ... maybe ... I've been spending too many of my WW points on empty foods--foods that don't nourish my body. Maybe that's why I've been so hungry and why I haven't lost weight for a while.
The Bistro MD food is pretty good and I'm enjoying the convenience. I am really enjoying feeling hopeful to see the weight loss begin again! Even with enjoying myself (reasonably) on Thanksgiving, it looks like I've lost a pound a half this week. Of course, this is weight that I had previously gained, but at least I'm going in the right direction now.
Here's to good nutrition! It really works! (duh)
Hugs. ;-)
Ha! Funny picture. Why am I humming the theme from Rocky while I'm writing this? :) Congratulations on surviving Thanksgiving! That's a big accomplishment.
