Fitness - Day 29: Mindless Eating

Bad couple of days.  On we go.

====

Morning weight [from Day 27]: 264.2 lbs
Total change: -4.0 lbs

Progress to Nutrition Level 4: For two weeks straight, swap out grains at breakfast completely for a high protein breakfast.

Week #1: [3/15/15] -  [3/16/15] - [3/17/15] - [   ] - [   ] - [   ] - [   ]
Week #2: [   ] -  [   ] - [   ] - [   ] - [   ] - [   ] - [   ]



Sunday went great.  Monday started out okay with a smoothie, but it was not even remotely filling.  I ate a couple of cookies lying around the office and quickly fell off-track.  Through Monday and Tuesday, I had mini-binges.  Not quite up to my pre-Nerd Fitness Academy binges, but still ate mindlessly.

One positive is that I stayed on track with my breakfast quest.  Had a smoothie breakfast on Monday and Tuesday, and eggs with bacon this morning.

It wasn't just a matter of not following my plan, but also of eating while distracted.  Gaming, watching TV.  I keep feeling like I'll lose something by simply eating.  Like, I'll lose time or pleasure or just waste time by simply eating.  It's a mindset I'll have to adjust.

But I won't try to do it all at once.  Eating mindfully is tough.  I'll try to do it a bit each day and build from there.  When I write my food logs, I'll note whether I ate mindfully or not.
