Well, I’ve survived my first cold of the season. It was touch and go for a while. I spent an entire day in bed, got nothing done, and didn’t care. During this lapse of health, I also had a few lapses of caring about being Paleo or anything else for that matter. Though with the exception of the half bagel, I didn’t stray too far.
What has happened, though, is I’ve gotten sloppy, and cocky. I had that nice loss last week and this week I find my hand going into the candy corn, I had a Munchkin’ donut hole yesterday, I ate some tater tots while cooking dinner the other day. That’s the stuff that will do me in. None of it monumental in volume or even deliciousness…just enough to be sketchy.
I’m hoping that on Saturday I’ll see a loss again, but this is the one week out of the month, if you catch my drift, where I usually gain 2 pounds, then lose 2 pounds, then find myself just the same. It’s frustrating. This is further reinforcement to be “good” the other 3 weeks of each month so that I can make the most progress!
On the different food note – I tried spaghetti squash tonight and it wasn’t bad. It was my first try and it was a bit on the crunchy side, but I saved some left-over's and may see if it softens a bit when I re-heat it. The fam wasn’t that impressed, though they were eating pasta and if I had that option I’d have picked that too. But this was tolerable.
Here in the North East, we’re up for some more rain and cold temperatures the next few days so my goal is to be more careful as my outdoor opportunities for recreation will be nil. Good time to get that sleep that’s so needed!
