No matter the plan... we all Blog to Lose!
2 weeks of failure.
Well I posted last Friday that I was going to the Rodeo....in my smaller jeans. :P In that post I wrote that I hadnt worked out all week long...Same exact thing happened this week. I felt guilty the whole week about it, but not guilty enough to get up and work out. I have no idea where my motivation went. The smaller jeans still fit but the top half of my stomach is starting to pooch over them....signs that I am SLACKING.
I am going to start working out again tomorrow. I am going to make this a priority just like it was a damn month ago. I am going to start doing it before I do ANYTHING else. So I dont have the excuse of Ill do it after..I do this...ya know?
The hubbies dad passed away today. It is sad, but the guy was dying for so long it was almost a relief that he isn't suffering anymore. We knew it was coming. I made cupcakes last night until 12 am to celebrate both his and my husbands birthday today,their bdays are 3 days apart. Today was Dennys (the dad) he died on his bday at 5 am. That is just weird to me.
I have ate like SHIT this week, not even concerned. Mcdonalds, taco bell, sweets..you name it I've ate it. Someone frigging help me snap back into reality PLEASE!!!!

Maybe part of the problem is that when you go for it, (with weighloss) it's so hardcore that you couldn't possibly maintain that forever. Once you would reach your goal weight, if you didn't continue at that pace, you could also see a gain. I think the trick is to figure out a way to have a reasonable amount of working out (daily or within a certain number of days a week) that you would be comfortable maintaining at that level indefinitely paired with eating habits that you would also feel comfortable sticking with--so that means no multiple workouts in a day-no marathon length workouts-no super restrictive eating-nothing you can't do for the rest of your life.
I know you love to see results-both visual and on the scale-but you sort of have to think for the long term--to develop permanent habits in eating/exercise that you can keep and maintain in place of bad habits. This time around, take it slower-at a more reasonable pace for pounds lost per week--and limit the workouts. JMO. :)
That's the help I am offering to bring you back to reality---an oasis--so your mind won't resist getting back on track thinking that it will be back to butt busting daily and deprivation.
Oh-and 2 more things: 1.Happy belated birthday! 2. Immediately throw any cupcake leftovers in the trash and step on it so you won't garbage pick. (Do the same with any other danger-foods that have worked their way into your home lately. )

Glad the smaller jeans still fit, just get yourself back in check. I'm with Keem, it needs to be maintainable changes or it's not permanent. Good luck this week!
My condolences about your FIL.

I am so sorry about your loss. Even when you know its coming it is still very upsetting. Even when I knew my father was so sick with cancer and I was so glad to see the suffering stop, it still knocked me on my ass when the call came. Hit that Turbo Fire. I find exercise helps when you are going through a stressful time.

So sorry to hear this Angie :((( It is easy to get so down in situations like this that you just don't want to do ANYTHING. Just remember, exercising gets all those wonderful brain chemicals flowing. It is like a natural antidepressant (without the nasty side effects too!). Take good care of yourself and your family. Maybe a big bowl of veggie soup?
