Before After

Alright....

So I know I haven't blogged in a while...yes there's a reason for it.....I have been pretty upset with myself for the past few days....when I weighed in on Friday morning this week I was up 0.7.....so then I didn't have such a good day.....then I was good on Saturday, exercised and even did yard work thinking I could burn a few extra calrories.....I get up on Sunday weigh myself and I stayed exactly the same as the day before....this made me pretty upset because I always go down something.....so then that set my mood for the rest of Sunday....to say the least I wasn't so good that day either....Yes, I have been good today....did more yard work and I still have to exercise which I WILL do but why do I do this to myself....why do I sabotage myself?????  Now I already don't feel like going to my weigh in that is on Saturday just to see a number or a maintain.....  I can't stand it when I feel this way but I don't know what to do to snap out of it......PLUS Valentines day, ugh, since my hubby works nights and will be working Wednesday night we are going to have dinner together tomorrow night, I don't plan on being real bad, just a little steak and maybe some veggies.....but I was gonna make him a cake...maybe I shouldn't because I will want to eat some.....man, pathetic.....ok, sorry for the depressing blog.....I just can't seem to get with it these days......

Mind off

I know what you are going through because at some point we all go through this. We beat ourselves up and we are so hard on ourselves for every little thing. I know as much as you want this to end you have to take baby steps in anything. You have the rest of your life fixing things and making things better. Don't stop your daily life becuase of a number on a scale. I used to think "wow, its amazing how a number on a scale can really set your mood for days, even weeks".

Think of this a life lesson that we must learn to get over. I know as hard as it you have to stop thinking about it all the time. I knew at first i was going to go crazy because i weigh myself daily. However, day to day weight flucuates due to alot of reasons. But its not true weight. You cant gain over-night. Its impossible, water weight yes, but fat no. If you have to weigh yourself daily, do it but just think "okay its not real!" You are working so hard! You are doing everything correctly! Don't beat yourself over it. I know its hard but you have to put one step in front of the other and take it slowly.

I sometimes think this happens because our body wants us to know that this takes time. The weight wasn't put overnight. It took years to put it on, therefore its not going to come off rapidly.

I hope you start to feel better. *Hugs*

Have a healthy week!
