Guest blogger and future NutriSystem buddy, Tamsin, shares her thoughts about our upcoming NutriSystem Challenge...I’m really eager to get started on my
NutriSystem adventure. I look at this as an adventure of-sorts because I have never really dieted before -- let alone followed a prescribed menu that comes in little packages. I’m very curious: will it look like astronaut food? Are the scrambled eggs as bad as some
bloggers describe? Will I STARVE? I am grazing like crazy these days, as if I am off to Yummy-Snacks rehab! I need to clean house of temptation foods before Day 1.
In anticipation of Finally Getting Started, I’
ve thought about some good habits to develop over the next 3 months -- perhaps some of these will even take my mind off the great meals I’ll miss during the upcoming
Winterlicious:
• Keep a daily journal. Aside from reporting on my experience and progress through
Bargainista, I will keep a daily personal journal. I used to journal religiously, but I somehow lost the habit and have longer planned to get back into it. This is my chance! I’m still not sure if this will be paper or blog, but I look forward to a personal space to clear my thoughts.
[Bargainista: I used to journal when I was on Weight Watchers and worked really well.]• Drink more water. Surely water intake will be a component of
NutriSystem, but I plan to make an extra effort.
• Daily walks. With a new job downtown, I plan to use the great window-shopping as incentive for a quick afternoon walk. Is it too early to dream of a spring shopping spree in a smaller size?
[Bargainista: If you don’t start dreaming now, what’s the point? Dreaming is what motivates me this time around. ; )]
Hey, Tamsin and I would like to tell you how it’s going but it’s not. At least not yet. Hopefully we’ll have some news for you soon.
