Waivering, but trying...
Wow, this is hard! I have had a really bad and unmotivating summer. So I slowly drifted back to alot of my old ways and habits. My raging sweet tooth is back and I feel once again like I must have dessert every day. I am trying to avoid it. My trainer said try to remember instead of having dessert everyday, try treating yourself only once a week. That is helping somewhat, but not completely.
I am doing all of this to have a better life. At 33 I have never had a social life. In high school and college it was to school and home and that just continued to work and home. I never went out or had friends. In June and after losing around 60 pounds I met a couple of people at a restaurant and became fast friends. Good news right? Well now all they wanna do is go eat supper out every night! Not good for a diet, but I'm really enjoying having a social life.
So... I'm dieting to have a social life, but my social life means I have to eat out at often unhealthy places
So what do I do? Nevermind, I know what to do, just gotta do it! lol
My elbow injury healed after 6 loooong weeks. I am having some back trouble right now that keeps me from standing erect. I look like the Hunchback of Notre Dame. I injured it lifted some heavy boxes. I did return to the pool today to swim and plan to get back to my 5 day workout schedule. I am hoping to get back to how I was feeling in May. I felt strong and undeterable. Now I feel like I did at 506 lbs when I started. Since July I have overall gained only 3 pounds so I still have time to turn it back around.
Anybody have any tips for regaining motivation to come back from a lapse. I need all the help I can get. I'm still at around a 60 pound loss.
Thanks for listening to (reading) my meandering.
