Hello again, week 5 on Nutrisystem is over, and it feels like it’s going so fast! Maybe too fast!
I think with any weight loss endeavor, your brain needs to catch up with the plan. I am finding it hard to eat as much as I am supposed to eat because my mind plays tricks on me and tells me I am eating too much. I try to avoid the scale, but as many of you know, that scale is like an addiction – “Hello, My name is Di, and I’m addicted to stepping on the scale.” And you know what, that scale has a hold on my emotions, it is dangerous and I think I need to have my husband hide it until weigh-in day. It can totally ruin your whole day when you see it hasn’t moved or moved in the wrong direction, I’m sure a few of you can relate to this.
In reality, I am eating the “right” way and the right amount. After years of basically starving myself and a lifetime of eating issues, my brain just has an issue dealing with this proven fact. It is hard, and no diet in the world is gonna change this over night. I know this but am making the changes needed to be healthier both physically and emotionally.
This is something that I will need to work on constantly, and it is a struggle, not gonna lie.
I am so happy on the Nutrisystem program with all of that said, it works, even with my mind playing games, I know my body is changing. One funny story about this past week was when I was outside gardening. My jeans kept falling down, and I found myself hiking them up every few minutes in fear of mooning the neighbors, lol! So I know my inches lost are coming off in the right places, you know, the bottom of that hourglass I told you about. Guess it’s time to buy a belt!
I’m not going to splurge on new clothes until I absolutely need too, I have some smaller clothes I can transition into before I really need to look at that great new wardrobe, which I can’t wait for to tell the truth!
Week Five Results!
WEEK 1: -7
WEEK 2: -1
WEEK 3: -2
WEEK 4: -0
WEEK 5: -0.8
TOTAL LOST: 10.8
( I will be updating every Monday)
So not a huge loss, but I’ll take it. I also lost another inch off my waist and 2 off my hips, so there lies the answer to my pants falling down 🙂
