Wow, these past couple weeks have been so stressful at work. I REALLY REALLY wish I was one of those girls who JUST CAN'T EAT when they're stressed. But my reaction is the opposite: I eat everything in sight. Each night I tell myself I'll do better 'tomorrow', then tomorrow comes and I fall off the wagon again. I've been eating too much, too often, too many carbs, too much sweet tea (one waitress called it "the wine of the South" LOL). And I can't begin to tell you when my last trip to the gym was.
But it all ended this AM. I woke up, put on my Big Girl Panties, and just took each hour at a time. I ate small portions, concentrated on proteins, small bites, chewed thoroughly, and 'whew'-- made it through the whole day without regret!! Tomorrow I will wake, go to the gym, and continue to follow the plan.
I've got all the tools. I know what I need to do to lose weight. I.GOT. THIS.
Thank for reading, and thanks for your support.
I think that everyone except maybe lapbandgal struggles with their band. I thought my journey would be like hers...all rainbows and sunshine...but in reality, it is a battle of constant battle of restarts you DO have this. And sweet tea is the devil.
ReplyDeleteI have heard the phrase "Southern Table Wine" before also...
ReplyDeleteBut yeah, I think this is always an uphill battle for most of us. But we're going to do it!
Well I reckon its a lifestyle change, so at sometime or other we are all going to have "blips".... no probs, its allowed and expected - keep on with journey - fantastic! xx
ReplyDeleteSometimes that wagon ride is extra bumpy. I know all about that. :p Glad to see you back on a track...you DO have this...you've done so well...such an inspiration for me!
ReplyDeleteYou can do it! I'm so impressed with bloggers such as you. You've come so far, and you give me hope that I can too, even though I know it's not easy!
