Grief = Emotional eating, not motivated to exercise.
Please someone kick me in the *ss. Tough love welcome. Sitting here feeling sad isn't going to change anything and I can feel myself slipping back to old habits.
Come on, B!
You have done great things during your weightloss journey so far!
DON'T STOP NOW!!!!
Get your butt in gear and get back on track!
YOU CAN! YOU CAN! YOU CAN!
When I was in boot camp, there was one cadet training officer (those who made our lives h*ll) who used to get right by my ear when I was doing pushups...he would say "Are you quitting on me? I know you're quitting...Are you going to quit?" Years later I could still hear him in my head when working out.
Soooo, I ask you the same thing... Are you going to quit? Are you going to take all your postive progress and thow away all your hard work and have to start all over again at some point? Are you going to channel all your energy into eating? Are you going to not exercise just because you feel bad? Are you going to ignore that endorphins will make you feel a little better just because it takes a little work to get them? Acknowledge the bad feelings and then do things to control them. Exercise when you want to grief eat. Scream at fridge if you have to, vent at your snacks but don't eat them. Use the bad feelings for good. Use them to motivate you to workout.
OK, tough love done. Nice love now. We're all here for you if you want to vent. Stay strong! You can do this.
Cheer up! If you mess up today just shake it off and start fresh again tomorrow. We all hit road blocks, but we all seem to get over it some how. Sending you lots of
