Ohhhhh... What a weekend... I wasn't even going to admit to defeat with all my friends here.. But then I thought who am I kidding, in a couple days, my weight will reflect it anyway!! LOL
Well, at least it wasn't for lack of trying from y'all to get me to stay on track... The day I posted the journal about eating pizza, I didn't eat pizza... I didn't eat pizza, I ate it the next day... The day I ate half a large pizza... I had 1 cheese string the WHOLE day. And I was out and about all day, including grocery shopping... so I was starving!!! That was the beginning of the end. Saturday the kids came over, on the way back to our place, they were hungry... oops donut ended up in my hands... When we got home.. they're hungry because it's lunch time... I got a full bowl of KD (kraft dinner) .... Dinner comes... I got a chicken wrap, not so bad actually, only had 1, and the only carb in it was the wrap part...
So then the kids go home, and one would think, well duh, you had dinner already... don't eat anymore, your not really hungry.. Your just watching movie.. and want to shove stuff in your mouth.. So we leave and go to get munchies.. (Keep in mind I can't seem to get motivated to get my arse to the gym) I got "Organic" cheesies... 250cal for 2 1/2 cups.. Which I didn't even eat... We got a larger bag of eggies from easter, which we "shared" (I ate most of them, keep in mind, coming off TOM, and I could have eaten the WHOLE bag on my own)
So Needless to say... Starting phase one all over again.. What a waste of my hunger and time.. I won't be starting it this week, don't have the finances to do so, but I will keep as tight to the phase 1 diet as I can...
WHATEVER! I just want to throw my hands up and say WHATEVER! Who cares anyway!??! It was so much easier when I didn't give a sh*t!!!
But then I couldn't walk up stairs without being out of breathe, I had flabby arms, and I was 20lbs heavier.. and all I wore were track pants, and felt like a disgusting blob.. So I WILL try again, and I WILL be successful! If I got everything right the first time, life wouldn't have taught me so many lessons... This lesson sucks though!!

Very few lessons in life don't suck. If it didn't we wouldn't notice them. Yu'll get there. It took me a long time to finally get it in gear and it's still a struggle. Just remember YOU'RE WORTH IT.

Rule #1..NEVER go grocery shopping when you're hungry! If I do this, I'm doomed. Your last paragraph says it all. Print that paragraph out and read it over and over again to reinforce those thoughts. You CAN do this. You WILL do this however long it takes. Hang in there!

Everyone has a bad day, or weekend, or vacation/trip that causes problems. THe point is that you are still better off today than you were before you started your "diet". You are 20 lbs lighter and feeling better (try carrying around a 20 lb sack of potatoes all day and let me know how you feel about getting those lbs back). You have done great and just because you failed for a few days while having company ...well...that puts you in good company with some of us that have done the same thing. You have the right attitude, you CAN do this, you've already shown that you can.

I know that you can do it. You have already shown that you can and you are inspiring so many of us with your challenge. You also are not waiting like I did to regain 11 of the lbs lost before getting back on the wagon. The weight didn't go on over night and will not come off over night. You took a step backwards but you are not back at the beginning by any stretch. You are already starting to move forward. Don't look back. Keep going and keep smiling.

"Not having a plan, is plan to fail". A day running around with no more than a cheese stick is not making yourself your number 1 priority and with as hard as losing weight it, you have to do that. You have to plan ahead or look at the clock and grab a V8 or fruit or salad or something. Toting along some raw almonds to snack on while on the go is a must, as well. You can do this, you have to CHOSE to do this and chose to succeed. Plan at least a day ahead, and more if you can and your success will come by much easier. Our bodies NEED to keep running and the metabolism is much happier or content with eating 5-6 small meals a day, to keep it working at it's best. Starting over is where it's at and you're there!! You will not always be perfect at this, and learning to get back at it, is what will drive the force to success! Brush off, chin up and back at it again!!

One bad weekend does not negate all the work that you've done. Just get up, dust yourself off, and keep going. You, the essence of you, the real you, is stronger than the negative self-talk running through you head. Put your affirmations in the present. Instead of saying "I will be successful", say "I am successful". I know it seems nit-picky, but it really does change the mindset. You don't want to be in a constant state of "I will". Be present, here ad now. You are succeeding. Your chart proves it.
