Fighting with Myself

I have gained five pounds.
No, REALLY.

I have become so ridiculously apathetic and uncaring, I lost sight of my goals and gained five pounds. I spend my mornings (actually, the majority of my day) sleeping, then I watch TV, I work, and I eat. A LOT.

I weigh 187.5 pounds. My body has 63 pounds of pure fat, about 37% of my total body mass.

That is not an exaggeration. So, let's lay down some ground rules, shall we?

1.) When you're hungry, eat. Restricting yourself and starving yourself will lead to overeating later.
2.) Eat slowly. Your body needs to tell your brain it's full.
3.) Use smaller plates.
4.) FOCUS on your food. Seriously. don't mindlessly eat in front of the boob tube.
5.) Can't control it? Don't buy it.
6.) Forgive yourself.

So, let's start over. I begin my change TODAY. Wish me luck!
