What's The Plan...Stan?
Lame title, I know...but it's exactly what I need, a plan.
Yes, I've been off routine for a [long] while and I had valid reasons [a.k.a. excuses] but now that's not going to work. All the things that took up so much of my time is now over. I'm working very little until I start full time on June 8th. So there's no reason I'm not hitting the gym hard and eating properly. But as you all know...I'm not.
Before I start with my plan I have to recognize the issues I'm having:
- Not eating enough...Or the right amount during each meal..
- Eating 1 meal a day...I know better!!!!
- Drinking waaaay too much alcohol way to many days out of the week...that damn happy hour calls me after a long day at work...lol or a long day period, lmao.
- Not drinking enough water...I'm lucky if I get in 20-40 oz a day...again I know better! At one time all I was drinking was water!
- Drinking soda...I went MONTHS without any, why am I battling this again?
- Fast food/take out...This is a direct result of poor planning and my body going into starvation mode so I choose something quick because I might pass out if I don't
- Not spending enough time making sure my body is healthy
- Not seeing the nutritionist like I'm supposed to
- Not weighing in weekly...Doesn't help my accountability factor
I could go on & on... but I won't. I will NOT wait until Monday or the start of a new week. I will start NOW! Not tomorrow, not in the morning but NOW! I will write out my plan, print it out, stick it to the bathroom mirror & fridge and I will take my butt to the 24 hr gym here at my apartments. If I don't make it there I will do atleast 45 minutes on WII Fit. I owe my body this much...I have not done all of this work to let it go now. Nope, won't happen! I'm tired of going back and forth with this weight issue. I want it gone once and for good!!!
I think I feel my motivation coming back :)
I just typed up a plan and realized I've done this before...Many-many times before and came up short. I really think it's time for some accountability here. A kick start. Something that puts me on the right path because obviously I can not do it alone. I know the things to eat and how much to eat and when, I just have to do it. So intstead of retyping a plan I know in my head, I will just do it and report back here. I know what works I just have TO DO IT!!! How many of us struggle with that? *sigh*
Well...I will be back to report everyday. That's my start to accountability.
Come on EP!!!
I know we [I] can all do it!
