Accountability is a good thing.
I know I have accountability with my coach (Lindsay - she's awesome!!) and a couple of friends who are also on IP. But I still feel like I should write in each week how I did.
Week 2 progress: -3.2
Total: -9.8
I know there will be weeks where this is more of a confessional than a celebration. It can't always be this easy. In fact last week I actually sat and stared at someone in the cafeteria eating a big piece of pizza with a luscious bready crust. Stared! And I had to really make myself think about other things to stop thinking about the pizza.
That's as hard as it s been so far and I would say on the scale of difficulties in life that ranks pretty low. I hope and pray that's as hard as it gets. I'm sure as long as I keep things interesting (like making cauliflower crust pizza after the cafeteria staring episode) I can keep myself from being distracted.
I also was asked by a dear friend what I'm going to do with all this passion and drive I have right now and I would love to help people.
I'm not a chef, I'm not a nutritionist. I don't know a lot of different flavor profiles and I can't MacGyver a four course gourmet dinner on the fly as unexpected guests are pulling into the driveway.
I'm just a simple systems engineer with a few cooking classes under her belt. But I'll do what I can. I'll search the internets for interesting recipes. I'll test drive said recipes to see how good/easy they are. I'll get together and cook so at least the cooking classes I have taken can maybe help someone else learn about food prep and make it easier for them to eat healthy.
This I can do.
