Day 37--How Can I?

How can I.  Coach Erik says the best question to ask is How can I ___ and enjoy the process.  Anything that makes you question or feel like it is too difficult, ask this question and the answers are empowering!  That's what I thought of when I saw this post today on Organize yourself skinny
She states that it is all up to us, our choice as to whether we become what we desire or not.  Our Choice.  How can I be skinny and enjoy the process??  Food for thought.  :)  I'm saving the post here so I can go back and read it.  There were some great ideas I would like to reference again. 


Morning Blood Sugar:  98. Like it!   Although it better have been good with all the steak I ate last night.  :) the best way to help blood sugar be stable is to pair protein with carbs.  Eat more veggies too.

Exercise: Stephanie's workout from a week ago.  Www.bootcamphub.com

Lunch:
Time: 12:30
Hunger Level*: 2
Ate: taco salad, dole whip
Comments: yummy.  Our theater just started serving dole whip.  The same as at Disneyland! So we've been looking forward to it!!the taco salad was good too.  Eating during a movie makes it hard to see what you are eating.  Definitely distracted!

"Every time you start to eat, check your hunger level.  Ideally, aim for around a level of 3 to begin eating.  If you are at a 5 or above, you are not biologically hungry.  If you are at 2 or lower, you're likely over hungry and at risk for overeating."  Scale and comments taken from the book "Intuitive Eating" by Evelyn Tribole and Elyse Resch.
