I did have a great workout tonight. I think I may have pushed myself a little bit as a punishment for my dinner. I walked/joggged 2 miles tonight with 9 minutes of jogging. My calorie burn was over 400 calories. Great workout... by far my best yet since I got back on the treadmill 29 days ago.

I still really struggle with portion control. I sometimes lose sight of what I am trying to do here and let loose. When I do, great quantities of food get eaten. Like you, I know what I have done afterward, but the damage is already done.
ReplyDeleteI'm with Steve- portion control is tough. I like a BIG plate of food in front of me- still so I try to make it appear larger. Put my meal on a smaller plate and add LOTS of fresh veggies to it. If I am having a burger load the pate up with salad or I like raw veggies too. :) Anything to help right?
ReplyDeleteGreat job on the exercise!! :)
Portion control is difficult. Sometimes the small plate helps; sometimes it doesn't. I know waiting the 15 minutes always helps when I remember to do it.
ReplyDeleteA battle we'll keep fighting until we figure out how to win it every time.
