Well, I really let that one go at the end here. There must be a correlation between me
setting a goal and me FAILING in the complete opposite direction of said goal. I literally gained for six straight days the
day after I said I wanted to see 229 on the scale this month.
Expecting things of myself is dangerous apparently. Honestly, just wandering along being happy with what I’m doing is much better.
Of course, I also let go the triad of evil:
2. Stopped tracking my food
3. Started eating out more
Accompanied with poor sleep, work stress, and a general lack of self-control
and boom. Back up in the mid/high 230’s.
I also had a lot of poor self-talk – the old ugly “YOU DESERVE
THESE TREATS” reared its head. Nothing good ever comes from that.
So, its back on the wagon.
I’ve not started tracking food yet, but I’m taking steps and gawds
knows, if I set anything too high I’m just going to lay down and not get
anywhere. Step one has been – TAKE A
DAMN LUNCH. Which I’ve done, but I
already had a snickers bar today. *SIGH*
Also – get on top of water.
I’ve had puffy swollen feet for half a month now. It’s all because I’m down on my water and my
body is suffering from it.
Today’s REAL emergency was I took a shirt off the hanger to wear to work today... and
put it back because it was slightly tight at the start of the month – I couldn’t
even bear to try it on and see how my belly has filled in again. Damn it – 2lbs does really make a difference.
Time to get back on track.
Hang in there. You're completely aware of what's going on and the best thing to do is just move forward and definitely not beat yourself up over being imperfect. Maybe you can start in baby steps, like adding a glass more a water and move on from there. I congratulate you for getting on that scale every day because I know it's such a hard thing to do to stay accountable.
ReplyDeleteThanks Kathy, I forgot to log my weight in MFF yesterday.BUMMER!! there goes my streak! Yes- I'm adding little things back in and trying to do some good self talk. Baby steps!!
DeleteI do admire your ability to weight, log, and analyze each month. That is super-impressive. Just don't let the negative outweigh the positive! Hang in there and keep fighting...
ReplyDeleteThanks Sheila!! sadly, I do tend on teh negative side. Its so much easier to get down... another part of e problem! ha! But today is much better. Daily weigh ins.... I've just GOT to keep on them.
