I feel like I'm coming out of the hole today. Still no exercise this week, but I've been getting more sleep and feeling more energized again. I also tracked everything yesterday and noticed that I'm WAYYYY under range. So that could be part if it too. I may be going way over or way under and not being consistent.
And the last few weeks, I was also not sticking to my personal rule of not eating after 7pm. Last night I stuck to my rule, and I'm feeling better this morning too.
So now I still need to plan the meals a bit better for the next week, plus get in my exercise again, and I'll be back on track.
It's so hard. Some people just don't understand just how difficult it really is to lose weight. Or they don't understand that it really does consume your day. Every minute of the day seems to be focused on what I'm eating - is it enough, is it too much? did I exercise today? if not, when will I fit it in? It seems like simple math - the less that goes in and the more energy you expend = weight loss. But there's so much more mentally involved. I can't explain why, but sometimes it's like a brick wall preventing me from meeting my goal.
It's too high, so I have to build steps to get over it and then how do I get down? it's scary. It's a big leap to take. and often that leap is scarier than the journey.
I have no idea what life will be like when I reach my goal weight. Will I turn shallow and materialistic? I hope not. Will I still be consumed with how I look? probably. These are some of the other questions that get in my way and make me start panicking.
But for now, I have to just take it one step at a time.... FORWARD.
