Days 64 to 69 – “Where’s my head at”

Been contemplating my committment to the challenge  over the last few days.  I have been doing well with the exercise part but have been have been having the approach to my food that near enough is good enough.  I have always been a bit of a rebel, especially with things that are strict and where it requires discipline.  Hence this challenge is such a good challenge for me.

Really want to have a super few weeks prior to the retreat and I think one of the best ways for me to do that is to commit to doing a food diary and being absolutely honest with myself.

If only you could have a senor on your mouth which recorded everything that passed your lips, could be some interesting entries though.

My big target for the challenge is to get to under 80kg. So I need to remove another 7.5kg in 6 weeks so my target I need to be removing around 1.3kg per week.

Comitting to giving it my best shot here.

I am committed to being my best (just need to mute a few voices in my head, or ignore them).

Hey Paul, when you work out how to mute those voices you will share the secret won’t you? lol
Great to see you’ve set some futher goals. I’ve found the minigoal system works really well for me. Much easier to eat an elephant bite by bite rather than a leg at a time!!! LOL
Kep up the hard work!

Ah, yes, the voices– maybe we should just do what we did as kids when we didn’t want to hear someone annoying us, block our ears and shout ‘la la la, can’t hear you!’ We’d sure get some interesting looks, and then we’d be too embarrassed to eat anyway :) Knowing there’s 6 weeks to go is a good way to focus, especially if you’re going to the retreat, so start the countdown, you’ll get there! Have a great week, Desi

Thanks for all the comments and encouragement, my effort-o-meter has really dropped of the last 2 weeks, down to 68% effort this week. Just 4 weeks to go so will make the most of it. Will try and keep up the blogging too but very short on spare time at the moment.
