When I started my diet I was so gung-ho. I dropped 16 pounds quickly and easily. I can't seem to get back into my routine, something always derails me. I can't continue to let this happen. I have invested too much time and energy and MONEY to go backwards.
I don't have a plan, I don't know what to do. I have new meds that I think I am a little scared to take, but tomorrow I plan on taking one. I mean I am under Dr. supervision, what the F am I scared about? Seriously, I am pathetic. One excuse after the other.
I am an accountant. I sit on my fat ass all day long manipulating numbers into a computer. I work on the 3rd floor of my building and I try to take the stairs as much as possible, I park far away and since I have to move my car every two hours or Mr. Parking Nazi will ticket me (again) I do get some exercise during the day.
Here is one of my problems, I have sever plantar fasciatis in BOTH my feet and I can barely walk sometimes. I go back to the foot doc next week and I am hoping some pain can be alleviated. In the meantime I just deal with it.
But how do I deal with my food choices? I am the only one I can blame for my failure this past weekend which has now stretched into Tuesday! I need to refocus, I need to stay motivated..I need to go back to doing all the stuff I was doing a couple of weeks ago.
I am only allowed 1320 calories a day..I get hungry, I get in moods. Maybe that is why I need to take my meds. I need a better mood.
OK, here is a promise to myself. Tomorrow morning I will get up, take my medicine, eat my healthy breakfast and start anew. I will not fail, I will not make excuses. I CAN and I WILL lose this weight.
Instead of giving myself reasons why I can't lose the weight, I give myself reasons why I can.
If you are afraid to take the meds you told me they switched you to, don't be. That's what I've got and it's fine. They had my start with half.
ReplyDeleteYou're right, you can and will do this. I will too but I need a swift kick in the butt about now. I've been off plan for 2 weeks, Im afraid to get on that scale now. Last week I hadn't gained but now, I'm sure I did.
Since I got a new (to me) car and pick it up this weekend, I can finally get to to the lab and get back on track (I hope).
Hang in there!! And thanks for your encouraging comment on my balancing act blog post - It helps!
It isn't easy, but it is absolutely worth it. Believe in yourself, challenge yourself and work hard at it. Mistakes will happen, but each day is a new opportunity to kick some ass. So, do it ...now!
