Aaaand I'm back.
Almost a year in, still at the same mark. BMI is still a little too high, and it's starting to scare me. Granted, I've been negligent in the past year. I moved to a new state, and to night shift, and that blew away any chance of forming a routine. I need help. I don't even know where to start, but I know I have to do this. The biggest problem for me is how exhausted I am after a 13-hour shift and an hour drive home. I'm usually exhausted for a couple of days after my work week, then I have to start all over again. I don't know what to do. All I know is I have to start somewhere. Anywhere. I have to take better care of myself. Here's what I have so far:
1. I've started walking with my dog again. Listening to audio books help. But the problem is I don't have faith in the benefits of walking. I'm on my feet almost all day long as a nurse. I'm worried my body is used to it by now, and isn't reacting. Sigh.
2. Logging my food intake. I need to be consistent with this. I wish I could get someone to hold me accountable but I find I'm actually feeling ashamed that my self-image isn't as strong as I'd like to admit. :(
3. Making an effort to drink more water. I drink so much coffee when I'm working. Most of the time, I don't have time to get anything else to drink. I'm worried that I'm damaging my kidneys. I don't know how many times I've arrived home and realized I haven't used the restroom since I woke up sixteen hours ago. I'm thinking of stocking my locker with lots of bottled water at the beginning of my work week. Just gotta find a way to do this (my hospital is so big that I have to take a shuttle from the parking lot, then walk 10-15 minutes, then go up five floors, to get to my locker).
4. Grazing throughout the day to avoid cravings. Eating more eggs instead of greasy breakfast meats/hash in the morning.
5. I'm a big rice eater. I really don't think it would be realistic for me to say I'm never eating rice again. So I'm drinking tons of water before and throughout my meals to make sure there's no space for too much rice in my belly.
There we go. Five things. That should be easy to follow, right? Now if only I can sustain this, I'll at least be in better shape.
