It’s been a while and I’m not even sorry about it. After two weeks on Nutrisystem, I switched to HMR @ Home and I like it a lot more. The food tastes better, it’s more filling, and easier to prepare - which is great for work. After six weeks of Nutrisystem/HMR, I’m down 27lbs. I only lost two this week which was a bummer, but I’m having to remember that I lost 15 in two weeks…
On a different note, I can see a difference in my reward choices from the last time I did this weights loss journey. My rewards are a bit more practical this time around. For my first two ten-pound rewards I bought workout clothes and running shoes. For my next reward, I was planning on buying Jackie Hill Perry’s latest book however it doesn’t come out for another couple of weeks. Last night I got thinking that I need to replace my luggage that I’ve had for the last 15 years. I’ve already replaced my smaller, carry-on bag with one from https://www.awaytravel.com/ that I LOVE! Their bags are pricy, but I now use my carry-on solely on trips and I would love a bigger suitcase. I’d like to get their larger suitcase as my big 100lb total weight loss reward, but it’s still expensive. So as of now, I’m thinking about using some of my smaller 10lb rewards to get gift cards to Away to help cut down on the price later. I’m thinking this will help with my need for more self discipline and delayed gratification in my life. I’m not saying that every single one of my 10lb rewards will go to this, but honestly I’m trying to have less stuff in my life for the sake of future moves and this is a practical need so it kinda makes sense to me.
Also my family has talked about going on a big trip at the end of this journey to celebrate. There’s a location in mind, but nothing is official yet, but I’d definitely need a bigger piece of luggage!
That’s all for now. Thanks for tuning in!
