New Goals

So, I'm now at the 25lb mark which is good, and its still pretty steady coming off, but I feel like there's been a slight slow down and I still have too much to go to be hitting a slow down or plateau right now, that's a few pounds off, quite a few to be honest, but I think I have it figured out, actually, I know I do......
My.
Eating.
Habits.
are.
ATROCIOUS!!!

1.  I don't eat enough on most days
2.  We have a horrible habit of skipping breakfast
3.  A lot of days I realize I'm starving and haven't had dinner at as late as 9 pm and while I try to keep it pretty light, that's late to be eating and then pretty much go straight to bed!!

So to remedy this, I think I am going to start planning out my meals for the day either as soon as I wake up or even more ideally the night before, before I go to bed!!  I won't beat myself up for substitutes while getting used to this, as long as the substitutes are just as healthy as the original plan, my main goal in doing this is to eat as on time as possible to eat ALL my meals and eat them at fairly normal times with a couple of healthy snacks thrown in!! I think this will help speed my sluggish metabolism back up some!!!!  

THIS is NOT a complainy complainerton type blog either, I am NOT complaining, I am HAPPY with my loss, I just know that I need to work on these areas as part of my lifestyle change to not only continue to get the weight off, but to maintain it lifelong once I get to to my goal weight.  My journey isn't over there, this is something I'll always have to work at to maintain, but if its a true lifestyle change, it won't really be "work" but just the way it is, which is so important to lifelong success!!! Those old ways have to be GONE, can't let them EVER creep back in!! :) 

I hope everyone is doing well and deleting those lbs with me!!!

Until next time,
Healthy Me :)
