I’m Tracking My Way Back to You Babe!

26 Jan

Well sorta.  I know tracking works, but my perfectionism is getting in the way of tracking.  Instead of seeing it as objective information about what I’m doing, I see it as damning evidence that I’m doing everything wrong.

When I lost 100 lbs, I was a great tracker.  I was doing something I called “flore”, flex points but eating mostly core foods (now called filling foods).  I didn’t eat activity points or extra weekly points.

I can’t do that now, so instead of owning what I’m doing, I’m just not tracking.

So, instead of tracking online, I got myself a little notebook.  I’m starting by just writing down the foods I’m eating–no quantities, no points.  Some days I’m getting everything in, some days I stop at noon.  But I’m not letting it drop.

How do you get back on track(ing)?
