NOTES: Did some batch cooking today. I hope the meals are good. I just ate some of the leftover ingredients for my meal today. I made stuffed collard greens, which I kept referring to as collard green enchiladas, using the Smoky Rice, UnMeat Chick’n & some red enchilada sauce. The meals also had some of the Corn & Beans, roasted squash & peppers, steamed onions & peppers, and sweet potatoes (for Justin–we only had one can).
I am not feeling as positive this week. I think I’ve actually started getting into a bit of a cycle with my weigh-ins. I become anxious before my weigh-in, but I feel euphoric after. I’d like to say I don’t really care, but that’s not true. That said, if I’ve gained weight I also wouldn’t be surprised. I have no concrete reason to believe that I have, but I’m concerned. I want to be able to do more physical activity. It’s pretty monumental that I can stand up in the kitchen and cook for hours without being in pain. It’s still hard to take that as a victory when I still can’t walk too far without getting tired. I am still carrying too much weight I suppose. I will get there. I just need to have a little more faith in myself and in the process.
