Ok so after a week of alot of eating I am finding it really hard to cut down on what I eat... I know it has only been a day and a half but yesterday although I had the best intentions after work I was positively starving and Biggy and suggested going over to our new place to take measurements etc so when I stopped to put petrol in my car my also got half a sandwich (didn't realise they sold them but they do) and a Wispa Chocolate bar... then after we left the flat we got some pizzas for dinner... I ate so much yesterday!!! Today I decided OK well instead of snacking through out the day I should have a big breakfast medium lunch and small dinner and that way I will stay in my 1500 calorie limit and although I am doing it I would quite happily eat a bit more now although I have just had lunch! I think my stomach has expanded again as haven't felt like this for a while... also I know mentally for the last week I have just been going " Eat, Enjoy and relax... its a wedding" and now I need to get back into the whole " Are you hungry or it is an emotion??" attitude again. You can see how easily people who have lost weight put it back on as for me losing weight is an attitude.. if I don't have it then the weight goes back on as fast as you can say "goodbye waistline"!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! The good thing is that I did go swimming this morning for half an hour and did a good workout.
What do you do when you have relaxed for a while...? How do you get back to good habits?
Hmmmm...in honesty, the only thing that I relax from is my diet :( I love, love, love working out!! This, my friend, is why I have stayed relatively the same after losing a bunch of weight. I allowed myself to eat just enough to get to 205. I have maintained that weight for so long. Why? Because fatty foods are delightful :) So...I am just now getting back to being mindful of my eating...
ReplyDeleteI know what you mean about the scale not moving I was so close to 200 and now because of the wedding am back up to 205. If you look at my Weigh In I have been going up and down since the end of July. Annoying! I have lost all my weight from my eating habits and am now only just taking up "working out" but so far its goign well, noe just need to get the good habits back! xx
