Slow going…Frustration
Well, the frustration isn’t because the weight loss is going slowly as much as it is with myself for the choices I’ve made to make it go more slowly. I overate at supper tonight…not like I felt over-full afterward, but since I still feel the fullness now, 2.5 hours later means I ate too much. I have been either doing that or eating slightly off plan MOST days the last couple weeks and I have barely lost any weight. My exercise suffered the first week of the month due to some unforeseen travel to finish moving out of our old house earlier than expected. Then, my scale was broken, as previously mentioned, which threw me off my groove. I’ve just had several set backs this month and I’m not pleased with how I’ve handled things. I’m more tired, crabby, and discouraged than I recall feeling in a while. I guess the change in schedule now with the kids starting school didn’t help either. I am still trying to get all this figured out but too much hit me at once and I cracked a bit. Now, I’m trying to take one thing at a time and make more reasonable goals for myself. It also helps that we are finally gonna be able to go a couple months without a trip out of town to tempt me with eating out more than normal. I want to end this month well, so I am planning to reign myself in a bit the next few days and jump start things again. Pray for me!!!
