Keeping My Head in the Game

When I stopped using weight watchers last week I was really excited. I felt a sense of freedom. I don’t know why I felt what I did but I liked it. The long weekend showed up and my good choices food wise fell to the wayside.

Friday night was Chinese food ad cupcakes, Saturday was chips and way to much salt and Sunday was a big family BBQ that included an insane brownie covered in cookie dough and a late night cheeseburger with Natasha. Monday was better. I had a migraine which actually mostly kept me out of the kitchen and away from junky food. As much as the headache was a pain ( it was probably brought on by crappy eating) it almost did a reset for my mentally.

When poor food choices start to snowball it can be hard to stop it from happening everyday. Sometimes I find it overwhelming. I’m so consistent for a few weeks and then it seems like I have 2 or 3 bad days. I really want to start figuring out what triggers me to weekend binge eat. There is just no reason for it!

My exercise as of late has been good but not great. Even with my vacation(!!!) coming up in a few short days I really want to amp up the exercise. My body feels great and my mind is clear when I am working out hard. Plus I still have that half marathon I’m training for, I can’t let that fall by the wayside.

This week my goal is to be consistent with my morning workouts and give it my everything. I can’t expect amazing results without giving my everything at the gym. In the evening I am going to keep up with my yoga challenge but I would also like add in a few easy realms to help stretch out my legs and keep the momentum going.

Let’s make this an amazing week!

  1. For me it just amazes me how 1 bad eating day can wipe out several good days. Two bad days erases a week… and I know this. Thus what is most amazing is that I still from time to time allow myself to string together bad days! Lately, not an issue for me; but if honest I surely will again. Oh I hope I can avoid the temptation to take such destructive detours.
