No, this journal has nothing to do with the similarly named TV show (which I don't watch anyway) but in regards to eating healthy, finding time to exercise and staying motivated, the title fits me!! I actually started a W.I.S.H. journal last year (which I had to go dig up in my subscription archives!) and was so outdated that I'm starting anew. My title had me "going" to Disney World and the fact is, I've already "been" to Disney World (fantastic trip!...shameless TR plug below).
SO! Here we are. I'm disgusted with my eating habits, my lack of motivation, and some days, the lack of time to get in even a 30 minute walk. Ugh. I actually did lose most of the weight I wanted to pre-trip. Then after we got back it was all over. Weather was turning cold, shorts and tank tops were stored away, and out came the baggy sweaters! Alas, I have plummeted to the depths of frumpiness.
Ok, enough whining. My goals - what I'd like to accomplish - is to fit in at least a 30-minute workout at least 5 days a week. I'd also like to eat better. I'm still a slave to comfort foods and carbs. In the cold of winter I lose my taste for lighter foods. I also still struggle with the late-afternoon "pick party." By that I mean the little nibbles here and there as I'm in the kitchen cleaning up and getting ready to make dinner. It's like a habit more than anything. Then on top of that I eat a full dinner! My weight-loss goal is 10 lbs. (doesn't seem like much, I know, but for the vertically-challenged like myself, even 5 pounds show up in that waist-hips-thigh zone!!).
I think I may go join eDiets again. I've done it twice now, but cancelled after the obligatory 3-month membership. When I followed the menus and didn't cheat and got in my exercise, I really shed the pounds.
So come on, DIS W.I.S.H.ers!...join me on this journey - we can ALL do it!
