Here I am, I have been hiding. I have been trying to hide from everyone...including myself. I had such a great week last week and to only lose .8 was such a huge disappointment and I let it eventually derail me. I have been over eating and I am not really sure why. I was talking with my hairdresser/friend last night and we were both saying we are feeling the same way. Neither one of us can quite figure out what it is. I am not sure if it's the weather (turning darker), a side effect from the IUD we are both using or a bit of depression (we have both had babies in the last year). I find I get off track so easily right now and I don't think I have felt good about myself in a very long time....I am going to work at getting my eating back on track for the rest of today and the week but I can't do much on the activity side as I am not feeling so hot (something in my chest). I need to regain control over my life and I think I need to start taking time for me. I am going to talk to hubby about getting atleast 30 minutes a night to myself. I want to get the key for our pool so I can start using that. I love to swim and it makes me feel so good! Here is to better days!
Thank you to my followers (I can't believe I actually have followers) for all your comments and encouragement, it helps to keep me motivated!
What keeps all of you going?
The only thing that really keeps me going is my hopes and dreams. For some reason I can't let those go and for once I feel like I am actually going to achieve those dreams. I don't know how long it will take but I hope that I can continue to keep pushing myself and that I never give up again.
ReplyDeleteI know you have your little girl so maybe just think of the kind of role model you want to be for her. The obesity rates for kids is beyond scary for me and that is one thing that also keeps me going. I want to lose this weight before I get pregnant so that way I am ahead of the game when it comes time to losing that baby weight. ;)
Just hang in there and keep going no matter if you get hung up for 1 hour, 1 day, 1 week, 1 month or 1 year. Just keep going.
