Non-scale victory of the week!

I did so well eating healthy even while traveling out of town to go camping and hiking with my partner, celebrating our anniversary and eating at a restaurant on the way back. I ate low sugar/low-fat and gave up snacking after dinner the vast majority of the week. I walked at least half an hour everyday. I restarted a yoga routine. I drank a lot of water, tracking my intake each day. I gave up drinking tea! I've been eating mostly whole, simpler foods, much fewer processed foods. I've been feeling great from all the fruit and vegetables and whole foods that I've been eating. My energy levels have been good and I've been sleeping well. I feel a bit more trim in the midsection and I can feel my leg muscles developing a bit from all the walking. I've been listening to my inspirational audio clips that always lift me up and my mood has been better, I've been feeling more positive about my body, my current health and shape and where I'm headed with my fitness.

What do you feel you could have done better this week?

When I was feeling stressed about planning the camping trip for the weekend at the end of the day on Friday, after dinner, feeling tired, I turned to some bread and jam (the only sugar or post-dinner snack I had this week) to lift me up and fuel my tasks that still needed doing before going to bed. Maybe what I could have done was taking a minute in a small space just to sit and breathe and close my eyes, maybe drink a whole bunch of water and talk myself up into a more positive headspace. Saying, it doesn't all have to get done right now. I could just do the minimum tonight and save the rest for tomorrow morning when I have more energy. And other similar soothing thoughts. Maybe also, when ordering a dish at a restaurant that comes with an automatic side, ask for a smaller portion of the side, like my sweet potato fries. They were so good but I didn't need as many as they gave me. They could have given me half the serving and I would have been happy.
