Starbucks is Evil
Posted by zazu on May 26th, 2008
I am struggling with the motivation to get moving on my weight loss plan. Today was just an all around bad day. PMS compounded by an argument with the hubby led to me feeling like I “deserved” a treat so I wound up at Starbucks. Now I’m just feeling bloated and mad at myself. Tomorrow is a new day.
Exactly one year ago I had my most consistent success. From weeks 12 - 21 I consistently had a loss every single week. Since I have saved all my journals in an excel spreadsheet I decided to go back to those weeks and print them. My plan is to review what I ate and how I exercised during that time and try to re-create the success I had. Just skimming over my journals I am able to see the many smarter choices I was making then - healthy snacks in the afternoon, more fruits and veg , etc… I did it then. There’s no reason I can’t do it now. It’s just a matter of recommitting; exactly what I am doing. Here’s to a better Tuesday!

You HAD to post a pic didn’t you???? That looks soooo yummy. We don’t have a Starbucks where we live…yet..they are building one. (My fav. recently that is SUPER yummy; about 1C frozen strawberry’s + 1 banana + a splash of splenda topped w/ water and blended, very yummy! and only 2-3 points. Also good with milk for a yummy breakfast on the go)
I’m jealouse that you’ve tracked so well and can go back and review, that is an awsome tool! Funny… I always think I *deserve* a treat as well. We just have to think of other treats that aren’t food!
