Hello to everyone in Internetland!!! So after the Thanksgiving holiday, I have been getting some comments for a bunch of people out there about what I have blogged so far. Looking back on what I wrote (mainly what I have been eating), there has been many days that I haven't been making the right choices. The only thing that I would say is that BFL doesn't discourage against pasta on non-free days (on the website & Eating for Life they list under carbohydrates- pasta.)
I know that I am trying to make the right changes so that I can really make the total body change, but please understand that this is a big journey for me to take. I am trying my best to follow everything that BFL recommends. But at the same time, I have to make sure that I am meeting what I have to for my family. My family comes first. And I know that I need to take care of me to take care of my family. But sometimes to take care of me, I have to take care of my family. If I don't, then I can't take care of me. So if that means, that I have to change going to the gym to cleaning the house, painting rooms, do laundry so that I can stay home and care for my son who has a 103 degree fever, then that is my way of taking care of my family, which in turns, that is taking care of me.
Understand that I am trying to do what I need to do to follow Body for Life, but I know that if I have to change what I have to do for that day, I know I will not be struck down by the BFL gods!!! This is me Changing "My" Body for Life- a journey to weight loss, happiness and confidence that I can make it.
I commend everyone that has been able to follow whole heartedly the BFL way, but I also know that it wasn't a complete transition into it on Day 1. It was a process to get people eating that way completely. Why do you think there is a "Free Day" in Body for Life? I want to get to that complete transition as a lot of people that have found great success with the BFL program. I am not saying that how I have been eating is correct- looking back, I have a lot of work to do. But blogging everyday, putting my weight out there for everyone to know and acknowledging that I need to make the right changes is a huge step!
Please know that I want everyone to feel free to give any type of advice, no matter how much it stings, I want to hear them. It let's me know that there are people out there that really wants to see me succeed. And I want to know what changes that I am missing that need to be made. With that said, here is my food journal entry:
Breakfast
Cinnamon Roll
Coffee
Lunch
2 slices of homemade pizza
Water
Dinner
Honey BBQ Chicken Nuggets
Salad
Water/Beer
Tomorrow, I have to take my mother-in-law back to the airport, so I am going to count tomorrow as my free day. Have a great Sunday, and I will talk to everyone then.
