Bored with diet

So, already two weeks into my diet and I am bored with my food :(  So not happy with this. However, a weird thing has happened. I have been craving veggies and fruits and even Sweet Potato's and Oatmeal. I have hated oatmeal all my life . I am slowly realizing that this is what my  body needs.
I have lost some weight which is good and I have had a somethings that I should not have.. Hey, its the holidays. But I am proud of myself I have been doing great.

Here are a couple of things so far that I have learned. Again, selfishly this is about me. Many people do different things in order to lose weight and get healthy. First, I have a journal. For the beginning of each week I write down things I want to accomplish my goals, my fears., my weights and things to focus on to keep me in line. The last week I have been focusing on drinking a gallon water each day. Hydration is really important especially if you are training for a Marathon or just in life period. I don't think most people drink enough water. So, in the journal  I write my thoughts and feelings for the day and the day prior or whatever. Second, I write down meals and then my workouts for that day at the top of the page. I write down my weight goal for just that week.  I find its easier for me to focus on a day.. Just that day.. it doesn't get so over-whelming worried about eating clean for the whole week. I have been preparing my meals in advance to help stay on track.

So, for the month of December going into January I have done well. I do have some challenges coming up ...Lets see How I do.. Prayer, Planning and Preparation are the key to my success and I have to learn to do without.. DISCIPLINE..
