I am very tired right now. Good day at work, rice and beans for lunch, very yummy fruit. Then when we got home I decided to make one of our most complicated dinners, risotto with mushrooms, sweet potatoes and asparagus. It turned out great and very low in points (6 for a lot of food) , but boy did it tire me out to make. I am not making risotto again unless it is the weekend, Iz is asleep, and Mike can help.
I have been having an internal debate today about throwing out my scale. Do I really need it? Will the number have an effect on my efforts and progress? Don't I want to continue regardless of the number? If it is going to be an emotional barrier, then why bother? At the same time, it could help keep my enthusiam high and be encouraging when I otherwise feel down. I am just not sure what to do. I know in the past I have let the numbers get me down ("I worked so hard this week and I didn't lose any weight! Why am I even bothering?") And I need to continue no matter what the numbers say. Maybe I will only weigh in every month?
