My appetite has been insatiable this week. I gave into it last night: I had a 10 piece McNugget meal with fries & a Coke.
I thought “if I feed that desire, then I will feel satiated & horrible enough to do something about it tomorrow”. Fact is, however, today, I’m craving cake. What is wrong with me?!?!
I don’t know if I’m just indulging myself because this is my last week off, or if I’m finding it difficult to stay on track now that I feel somewhat pretty. (Yes, to all you new to this blog, newsflash: I’m vain). But, I just want to sklunk around eating moonpies instead of sticking to my usually satisfying diet & working out (even though I know working out makes me feel better). And maybe that’s the rub of it all:
No one wants to work out. No one wants to stick to a diet. Everyone feels as if they just want to be OK with things as they are, or pretend things are better than they are. But I have to face the facts: I didn’t want to workout last year, I don’t want to workout this year, & I won’t likely want to workout next year, either.
But, I did; & I must continue to force myself to workout if I want to meet & maintain my goals.
So, away from the computer I go. Hello workout tapes. Goodbye indulgences… excepting, of course, Emo-posts like this on this blog. A girl’s gotta have some sins, ya know?

UGH! We all have weks like that. Just hang in there and try to tough it out! I have noticed alot of times my cravings are hormonal, and they will go away in a week or so. Just try not to do too much damage while they are around.
Try to think about how good you feel after you workout. How good you feel, the sense of accomplishment. That usually propels me to do it even when I don’t want to.
