I'm finished with the visual food diary for now. It's clear to me that I don't usually over-eat. I do usually under-move.
Today was another perfect example:
- John dropped me off right outside the building I work in (thank you!)
- I sat at my desk from 8:40 a.m. until 5: 30 p.m., with very few exceptions
- John and I walked to the car (7 minutes)
- and then I sat around the house for the remainder of the night.
The problem is definitely lack of movement.
This is not new news.
I'm just looking for new motivation to get me to do things differently.
The visual food diary helped make me more mindful of what I was eating. I'm hoping a visual record of what I look like from the outside -- all around, not just the part I usually see in the mirror -- might be a visual and mental motivator to get me to MOVE!
