Thanks for the support, everyone. I have picked myself up and am back on the wagon again. I didn't do any emotional eating today, even though the day was a bit emotional. I rationalized my fat day, was logical about my decisions, etc. And it felt pretty great. I also came back for round 2 (or 2 million, more likely) with the exercise too, getting in 1.5 hours of mountain biking as well as 50 minutes on the elliptical trainer this evening!
Thank you all for comiserating with me today. It's a lot harder to beat myself up so much if I know that all you ladies I respect have days just as bad as mine have been lately.
I appreciate your support!
Good news, too, that I forgot to share earlier: I decided to do the Avon Walk for Breast Cancer here in Denver in June. This is a 39 mile walk over the course of 2 days. I will raise at least $1800 along the way to help provide care for underserved breast cancer patients, as well! I am doing this walk in honor of my friend, John Eason, who is struggling with breast cancer this very day. If you're involved in the Avon walk (or you want to be
) or if you're interested in volunteering or donating let me know, and I can send you a link! It's a great cause.
Thank you all again so much for your support today. I really needed a helping hand beating the fat day.
