Today I feel pretty good. I have upped my fitness again: I increased the length & frequency of my runs and I have really been putting the effort into my personal training. As well, I have tried very hard to make sure I get in all my servings of fruit and veggies and drink some water! I think it has paid off.. I have been losing the past few weeks and feel like I deserve a reward...
The reward that I want is Pat's Pizzeria take out. WHY????
Why is that the first thing I think of when it comes to rewards? Why don't I think of jewelry, or new furniture, or a trip, or hell.. a car. Nope, I think of a cheese steak, wings, pizza and some sort of dessert.
How do I break this initial thought? How do I retrain my mind to have a better mapping in my head? Here is how it goes:
Any ideas to switcheroo it around?
Oh, and I know I owe you guys some progress pics, so this crap ass one from my cell will have to do for the moment till I get home from my business trip. (decor a la Marriott)

I feel the same way. I always think, "Great, I worked out today! That means I can eat an entire tub of ice-cream!" Bad, bad, bad. You are not alone! :)
ReplyDeleteNo ideas on how to turn that off unfortunately, as I struggle with it myself.
I love your graph!!!! Made me laugh!!! I so get it!!
ReplyDeleteI had to start a rewards jar. It's clear and I put my reward money in it ~ I am saving for a charm bracelet from Tiffany's. It's way expensive, but I thought it would be a great reward and a reminder of all of my hard work. Way better than a BK hamburger. Once you eat it you only have more fat to show for your reward instead of a beautiful piece of jewelry!!
It feels good for things to be going the right direction, doesn't it?
ReplyDeleteLooking good Missa, keep up the great work! :)
ReplyDeleteI so get you! I self-sabotage ME all the time! Why??? Maybe I need therapy! LOL!
