Funfuture Take 2
Well, am back from China - a great trip, but NoS went out the window. I'm 5kgs heavier than when I left (but not back to my starting weight - a small comfort!)
So it's back to NoS starting tomorrow (Monday) and regular exercise.
I read through my old posts. It was good having all that material to review...it gave me some ideas about how to improve things this time around.
- My meals were reasonably good but towards the end there, S day foods were creeping into my diet during the week fairly regularly.
- my portions were too big. I was piling the plates too high.
- I wasn't drinking enough water.
- I wasn't exercising regularly enough - while I did at the beginning, it dropped off because work got so busy. This time I will make a commitment to a minimum of 15 mins every weekday day, regardless of how busy work is.
- I think I replaced exercise with meditation - I'd still like to meditate, but as an addition to my day - not as a substitute for anything. My stress levels probably would have been better managed if I had kept the exercise in as well.
- I was drinking too much milk. This time around I am cutting out milky coffees except as S day treats.
- I was drinking wine during the week and that undermines my resolve and my good habits.
- I wasn't really focussed on maintaining solid habits. I shifted my focus to results (big mistake). Once I did that, my eating and exercise behaviours ended up all over the place.
- I think it was a mistake to try and do Shrink Yourself at the same time. It focussed on reasons for eating (making me think about eating all the time) rather than simply working on habits (and not thinking about food all the time).
When I stuck to NoS faithfully, it worked amazingly well. So, it's back to habits - and strictly keeping them.
My first goal is to get to the end of the year (Dec 31) with strong NoS habits (eating and exercise). (A subsequent goal will be to get to June 30 2010 with the same strong habits...
I also want to commit to writing a minimum of 500 words of my writing project each week till Xmas.

Haven't quite got the exercise routine sorted yet. We had houseguests and all sorts of stuff happened at work - excuses, excuses. Did do a bit of shugging this week, but not every day. So, I think I'll write up a weekly routine for exercise and try to make it work.

Thanks, Debs,
it was more letting stress get the better of me again. We didn't spend all our time in China but had to fly back and forth. My elderly mother became very ill and we came home and helped find a nursing home for her as she now needs permanent care, but then had to fly back to china for work. Still, it was a good six months. I'm glad i was on sabbatical as it gave me the chance to fly home and spend 6 weeks with mum and help get her settled, without there being a big problem iwth work, etc.And the time in china was invaluable for my daughter who was born there and is ethnically Chinese.
This week has worked well re NOS. But yesterday's S day wasn't fun. I was okay till lunchtime and then ate all this crap just because I could. Not very sensible. Today is also an S day but I will stick to my three meals and only have a treat if I really want one.
cheers

Yep, funny how that is, huh? And sometimes it's hard and other times it's easy. Reinhard said that if you stick to it..you'll eventually build a psychological ring of fire around the Ses. That's what I'm aiming for.
I guess this doesn't work unless you actually do it.
Please pray for me

Yes, that's right renew.
Had a horrible weekend eating-wise - I think I ate half the time for the sake of it and then just got locked in old bad eating habits.
Monday:
B: oats with seeds, sultanas and soy milk
L: sandwich with mayonnaise, tuna and spinach
D: country-style soup (vegies, grain and sausage) and pasta.
Tuesday:
B: oats with seeds, sultanas and soy milk
L: sandwich with tuna and mayonnaise, plus a small apple and a kiwifruit
D: one meat rissole plus home-made potato salad (potato, carrot, pumpkin and peas with mayonnaise).
Large servings of dinner at the moment, but am hoping they'll come down as I settle in.
Am considering going cold turkey on sugar as a NoS mod...

My portions are still quite big, but I am hoping they start to settle down soon as they did last time.
Am trying a twist on NoS. Will see if I can do it and if it will work and if so, will post about it later. I find that if I post here that I will do something, I too often end up doing just the opposite.

Enjoy your chops, lol!
One trick that helps me on S-days (I still have up and down ones) is to be PROACTIVE. Still eat three meals, and plan a superb treat rather than waiting to see if something appeals. (I've learned that when I wait for something to appeal, too much stuff will quasi-appeal, and I'll eat it all and still not be satisfied!)
Have a great weekend!

HI KCCC, yes, t's good advice. At the moment though, I want to bring myself back to treating S days as part of the overall NoS approach, rather than a separate time when it is ok to lose your head. Planning one special treat doesn't do that for me - I spend all day feeling deprived because I can only have one. LOL. Feels like a diet again.
Having said that, I had a v good S day yesterday. Saturday was a bit of a blowout, but with food I like and that I had cooked myself (nothing processed). Sunday, I completely forgot was an S day. Go figure.
Anyway, thanks for dropping by. It's always nice to have visitors!

I don't mean that you can only have one treat - that would make me feel deprived too! But if you KNOW a special treat is coming, something that you really really LIKE, then you'll find you don't want to spoil your enjoyment of it by eating junk. "Something wonderful to look forward to" tends to "push out" a lot of less-satisfying eating, even if the eating is still completely allowed. So, try planning a really special treat and let the rest of the day take care of itself.funfuture wrote:Planning one special treat doesn't do that for me - I spend all day feeling deprived because I can only have one.

Somewhere, I read that you have to indulge "your inner pig" enough that it believes you will take care of it. Re-phrased - the emotional part of yourself that is not amenable to reason needs to be reassured that it will get "enough". That just takes a while, but eventually it does kick in. I've been amazed at the stuff I pass up, and the mental thought is something like "That looks nice, but there will be nice food again." (Not always, mind you! But it's nice to see the habit taking root and growing stronger over time.)
Good luck!
thanks, KCCC. I really appreciate the input. I love the phrase "mental pig" - I have a really snuffly one lurking in my psyche.

HI Reinhard,
thanks so much for dropping by and for the welcome back! I really appreciate it (especially when I know how busy you must be).
This week has been ok too. No snacking but biggish meals. I've been to a natural health practitioner who has suggested removing gluten from my diet (for various reasons). I'm going to try that for a while, substituting buckwheat bread for wheat breads, etc. For the last month, I have been off sugar and sweet foods anyway, so eliminating gluten mostly just means substituting for bread and pasta with gluten-free foods.
Still working on the exercise...

I had quite a good week of gluten free foods. I am finding that without sugar or wheat, I am not interested in snacking, really. I've found a good buckwheat bread and also a flat bread. Meanwhile, I am looking for a substitute for oats. A friend has suggested quinoa, so I'll give that a try.
Unfortunately, I've done something to my back that is preventing exercise at the moment beyond a few yoga twists. But hopefully, it will be back to normal soon.

If you try quinoa, make sure to rinse it well before cooking. (unless it is a pre-washed variety) That'll help to make it much more tasty. Quinoa is a great food - one of the most nutritious and natural foods there is.

Thanks for the tip, Laura. I have started to use it. I cook it with chopped apple and sultanas and then eat it with soy milk. Yum. But I'll make sure I wash it properly before I cook it and let you know the results!
Speaking of soy milk. I was visiting some Chinese friends last night and they showed me a special electric "kettle' that they use to make their own soy milk. It looks exactly like my hot-water kettle, but you unscrew the bottom and place washed soy beans in a special container inside. You then fill it with water. I think that then sits overnight and you turn it on in the morning and it grinds and cooks the soy milk in the water and you pour off the resulting milk. Couldn't be purer - and I'm sure it would be a lot cheaper than the bought soy milks. I was fascinated.I didn't get to try the resulting milk, but I've asked them would they mind letting me sample some next time we visit.
I'm planning to restart posting my daily meals and exercise. I am still largely off sugar and gluten and I'm finding I have no desire really to snack. But my meals are big and I haven't been exercising, so my weight hasn't shifted. The relief of not snacking out of control (or wanting to), though, is immense. I am not really noticing S-days coming and going at the moment - which is remarkable for me.
In the spirit of starting to record meals again: -
Breakfast today was buckwheat toast with avocado and cheddar cheese, plus 2 milky coffees.
I took a long walk 45 mins plus a steep hill.
cheers

I picked up my X-rays this week (have been going to a natural practitioner/chiropractor for a few different symptoms). It turns out I have arthritis in my hip, mid-spine and neck. garrumph. In a way, not un-expected, as it runs in the family. And it isn't too bad - ie not that far gone. The upside is that it has spun me back into exercise (where's the nearest yoga class?) and watching what I eat to get my weight down. Not a bad wake-up call.

aaggh - completely off track at the moment. My good habits went out the window when my life got chaotic with work, elderly parent and 9-year-old's birthday and family celebrations. No S went down the gurlger. I feel crap because I ate lots of gluten and sugar, but then again, it was lots of fun.
I'm a bit sick of telling myself to get back on track...however....
