Sticking to the meal plans

I am having a hard time sticking to the plans that I have made.  I know that plans are subject to change but everyday or so?  That is just a bit too much.  I do feel like I need help.  I live in a house where my mother and I don't always like the same types of foods.  So how do I compromise whereas we like the same type of foods?  I guess the only way to know what to do is to formulate a meal plan only for myself within a day or two before.  That is all I know to do.  It is not going to be just pick out food and write it down.  It takes some consideration as well.

Rest from making meal plans

I have already made plans for today and for tomorrow.  I would like to be able to actually follow those plans.  Usually more often than not my plans are subject to change.  I am feeling just fine since I have exercised early this morning.  Exercising while counting calories on the treadmill hopefully will do me some good.  This is one thing that has been beneficial to my health today.

Break from a plan today

This is the time where I write up a meal plan for the day or at least the next day.  Well, I have done that yesterday, and needless to say, I did not follow it.  However, I did exercise for at least half an hour this morning and I feel so much better.  It motivated me to exercise even more.  That is one of the two things that I did today that are healthy.  The other thing I did was prayer and listening to calming music.

Musings about meal plan today

I should have just "hopped to it". Why did I not just be like Nike and "just do it"?  I ate more food than I should have but the amount of calories I have consumed have been within the limit.  On the other hand, it doesn't make sense that I eat the wrong kinds of foods.  I wish I had made a plan today.  Well, hindsight is 20/20.

Subject to Change

This is just a random meal plan as it is subject to change.  In fact, all meal plans are subject to change.

Yep, that is exactly what has happened.  So did the exercise plans.  I need to rethink those plans.  What I need to do is to be counseled myself.  Why do I tend to overeat?  Why do I plan realizing that I still have issues?  Why do I still plan knowing that things are subject to change?  I always believe that plans are made to be followed.  Sadly it seems, that plans are made to be broken.  I don't want that and I would like to change that.
