I LOVED being on vacation!! It was great and relaxing and we ate A LOT of great food!

In fact, we ate so good…I gained 10 pounds, in 10 days (Catalyst plus vacation). Now, if you know me, you know that gaining 10 pounds isn’t something I take lightly at all.

I thought when I got back home and in the groove the pounds would FLY off, but thats not happening. I keep finding my way back to the sweets (that I ate so much of on vacation because deserts came with our “Disney Dining Plan” at EVERY meal)! Thus canceling out the P90X that I’m doing each AM!

Seriously, I have a bad problem with snacking late at night. I can do great all day long & then when I get home at night it’s like I binge eat late night snacks. So not good! :-(

So, I’ve decided that I need to just detox from bad foods. Knock the craving out of my system. And from that, i’ve made a decision!

For the next 10 days I’m not going to eat ANY…

  • Deserts or sweets
    Fried foods
    Candy
    Jams, jellies or baked goody treats (except maybe natural PB)
    Sodas of all kind
    Late night snacks

For the next 10 days I will ONLY eat…

  • Wholesome foods
    Vegetables, meat, grains & nuts
    Correct portion sizes

I will admit that the only time this doesn’t apply is at one breakfast this weekend (it’s a date breakfast & I want to enjoy it)!! :-D

Anyway, I know that you could probably care less about what I will or will not be eating for the next 10 days. However, saying it out loud forces me to act on it with an even higher level of integrity & not just quit somewhere along the way because no one knows & it got too hard. Now you know, and you probably still don’t care…and that’s ok, because I know, you know…ya know?! :-)

My goals are as follows…

  • To stop craving unhealthy foods constantly
  • To jump start my body to lose the unwanted gained pounds
  • To prove to myself I can do this & begin healthy eating habits again

So, there you go!! I’m starting today. If you want to join in, just let me know. However, I seriously doubt anyone will… :-D
