Yikes! What a frickin week I have had. The good news is, I stayed the same. The bad news is, I stayed the same. I am actually surprised that I even stayed the same. Last Saturday I was having a slow, boring bad day at work and purposely went to Taco Bell on my way home. I didn't have to take the roads home that led right by the Taco Bell. But, I chose to. Its so weird, I like got in my car and was like "I am eating Taco Bell tonight" and that was it. My decision was final.
Well, normally that would be okay, but it just sent me into a mental downward spiral, and with both of my kids sick, it seemed that ordering out and "taking in" was much easier than preparing meals at home. I did try to eat better for most of the days, but every day was different. I did go to the gym 3 days this week, and yesterday, I tried to do a little more at the gym to sweat some of this nonsense eating off.
Its weird with me ya know, either I am all into my "diet" or I'm all out. Why can't I be both?
Why do I punish myself for eating something bad one day?
Why can't I just move on from that?
Well, I am going to move on, because this journey thus far, has been good. And for once in my life I feel like I am finally getting somewhere. I am looking better and feeling better, and I am fitting into pants I haven't fit into in a long time.
So I am not about to give up now.
