Well Ive fallen back into some of my old habits and I have been eating after 8pm AND waking up and eating in the middle of the night. So I need to retrain/refrain myself from these bad bad habits AGAIN... it was so hard the first time, but I know it is the only way to achieve my goals and be a healthier happier me... I have noticed the more I eat and the less I exercise that I am also falling back into my unhappier self. Back when I started and was eating way better and exercising a lot I was more upbeat and happier in general. I liked it and need to get back to that.
I have also let this blog slide, I think that all of this started when I stopped writing about my progress, like a mental block where if I could skip this then I could just cheat or skip on other things... I am a little dissapointed in myself right now, but at least I havent lost any ground and put 5lbs or more back on... I have been hovering at 235 for almost a month...
Gonna start going to the YMCA early in the morning since they will watch the boys for 90 minutes. I figure 30 minutes in the pool and 30 minutes on an eliptical...
hi. came here via LoseIt and just wanted to cheer you on. I could have written this post dozens of times. It's amazing how depressing it is when we fall back into unhealthy patterns, especially when we KNOW we are happier when we are eating well and exercising often. And the real bitch is how hard it is to get back on track after a slip up! BUT you can do this. If you have a splurge, acknowledge it and move on. The awful downward spiral is what has kept us unhealthy and overweight. Healthy people have setbacks too! They just get right back on track instead of bashing themselves over a damn cupcake. You can do this!
ReplyDeleteThanks, that is basically what I am doing now. Getting my mind mentally back into the game... luckily I have held steady at 235 this month of indulgence lol... I was doing really well for 3 months and it only goes to reason you will slip, its all about getting back on the horse... and I will... cause I am sick of this gut lol
