Planning!!!


Today I have something on my mind: PLANNING!! Not urban planning (though I do love that). I'm talking about planning ahead for weight loss!

I have had a really hard time staying on track lately, and it hit me today: I haven't been planning ahead! I have been caught off guard by obstacles which throw me off my points plus plan! So tonight (with the help of a skype conference with my mom and sister) I planned out tomorrow's meals, that way I don't get to dinner time and say, "Shoot, no points plus left."

We'll see if it helps me get back on track. I want to knock off some extra weight because I want a cushion in case the holidays hit me harder than expected.

Honest truth, though, October is my most difficult month for staying on track. Sort of glad it's over, although it's a blast. My birthday, 2 of my best friends' birthdays, homecoming, other tailgates, and candy everywhere-- there are many obstacles! Plus, this year I had celebrated finishing my research! Finally, Halloween was a ton of fun, but full of candy, etc! My friends and I went as Sesame Street characters! I was Big Bird!



Needless to say, I made it through the month, but I did not lose extra weight like I wanted. So, let's see if my plan ahead strategy works! Vacationing this weekend-- but with my family, so it will be AWESOME to have support!!

Tune in next time when I talk more about Yesvember! Have a good weekend!
