Yesterday I started thinking about what I have achieved so far. I have really problems with my motivation these days, so I was thinking that if I looked at what I have achieved and what I want to achieve, maybe I will get motivated again.
So, what is my achievements?
- Eating breakfast every day now, instead of just a couple of times a week
- Half my plate (or more) is now salad on every lunch meal.
- Half of my dinner is low starch vegetables
- Drinking water throughout all day, and to all meals. Have only had 4 servings of soda since I started DietBet in April.
- Always have four meals a day (breakfast, lunch, dinner and a snack). Snack meal is mostly berries, vegetables or just a small crispbread.
- Plan my meals for a week at the time.
- Some kind of exercise (walking, golf, strength..) 5 times a week.
- Replaced all chocolate with dark chocolate, and eat it no more than once a week.
What do I want to achieve over the next weeks?
- Harder exercise at least once a week
- Stop eating of boredom (I eat unhealthy or just to much when I don't have anything else to do)
- Stop eating other candy except for a little bit on Saturdays (need a treat every week).
- Stop drinking alcohol except for special ocations.
My achievement list is way longer than what I need to achieve. Maybe that is the reason why I have problems with motivation? I have already come so far. Well.. Let's focus on one thing at the time. Boredom first! :)
