Rainy day, so no outdoor walking for me. I haven't yet decided what I'll do instead, but it will be either an XBox thing or Stairmaster time. Then, it will be on to doing some Christmas decorating!!!!!
The tree's up, but naked (no lights or ornaments). We switched to LEDs this year, as our old sets were ancient. Our outdoor lights had been around since the mid-80's! The more I read, the more I began to think they were fires just waiting to happen. So, all the really old stuff got turned in for recycling. We've got a few older "regular" light strings left, but eventually, they'll be changed out too. They're not from the mid-80's but still many years old.
For the holiday, I didn't do too badly. I confirmed that:
1.) I do better if I log my foods,
2.) I do better if I log BEFORE I eat,
3.) I can still eat too many calories, even doing low-carb, and
4.) Low-carb trigger foods are still triggers, even during the holidays.
I'm not happy with holiday weight gain, but surprisingly, I feel comfortable in knowing that I can go back to what works for me and get things moving in the right direction. No, it's not a panicked move back to Induction, as some might do. You won't find me not eating for 2 days or spending those days exercising 'til I drop at the gym. It's not a race to see how fast I can get back in line....although I will be monitoring things closely. It will be just a reasonable course correction, working WITH my body, not trying to punish it and beat it into submission! LOL! This is NOT the end of the world, just something that happens and will probably happen again from time to time. I just have to make the corrections and be sure that I'm not getting into some kind of wild yo-yo routine. This is life in Maintenance. No biggie, right???? LOL!
