Day off....meal off....life ON...game ON!!

In the Game On Plan, there is a day off and an additional meal off in the plan...meaning, you can save up for that special day, special party, special event...2 times a week....It is the bad habits where we make EVERYDAY a day for dessert, EVERYDAY a day to drink alcohol, EVERYDAY we skip exercise, EVERYDAY we say that we will fix those habits TOMORROW...those bad habits get us in trouble and eventually searching for a plan like Game On!

I took my meal off last night--it worked out great. It was Saturday and we had one kid out, another kid at swim meet all day, another one with a play date all day...nobody wanted to then cook...husband and I enjoyed pizza...and wings...and fries...all in moderation...a little bit of this and that...and then finished "meal 5" as a Game Friendly (our verbage) meal...Today was day off..but I didn't feel called to anything but an egg sandwich for breakfast (game friendly), and spinach salad wilted by warm sweet potatoes and chicken sausage...again, Game Friendly.  Dinner with friends was lasagna and salad...yummy, but again, special, not for EVERYDAY.

I can see what is happening to ME...the good habits, are becoming my habits.  The bad habits are fallling by the wayside....6 months in, and things are truly changing.

On a side note, I wrote in a previous post about giving up and adding good and bad habits for the duration of the game...I added Sun Salutations...day 1, felt nothing.  DAY 2...when I went down into "cobra"???  Well, let me just say that the stretch in those core ab muscles were SORE...well, AMEN to that...guess even those little bit of moves, little bit of stretches...do help...well, yay me!
