Hi! My name is Catherine and I am a middle-aged, perimenopausal fat chick. I managed to lose a lot of weight ten or so years ago, and then stalled out and have yoyo'd since then. It doesn't help that I live alone, in some ways. And that I am gluten-free. Because regular gluten-free stuff is higher in calories and lower in fiber than the non-gf. That being said, I have access to some lovely veggies and meats and such.
So, refreshing and restarting the weight loss journey.
Things I have to remember:
Set a nice table for myself. Use the good china. Buy some single-serving place settings (including flatware, maybe?) . Stop idle snacking, or make sure you snack on fruit and/or veggies between meals. Eat when you are hungry.
Baby steps. Pull out one of those "goal" items of clothing and use it. (note, I have real issues with using a scale, because that triggers all kinds of stuff for me, as does journaling, I can't keep a food diary because I get paranoid)
So, goals for this week:
Eat 80% of your meals at the dining table off of a plate.
Buy and prep some fruit and veggie snacks to grab when hungry
Cook meals. As opposed to grabbing cheese.
3 20 minute workouts
yoga ball stretches 4 days a week
buy a yoga ball office "chair"
