I've always loved walking, and that's always what I've done as my main form of exercise. I don't drive, so if I want to get anywhere around town, I have to walk. (Or take cabs, but ugh, I don't want to do that. *L*)
But I think I may have to stop walking outside. And it's for the weirdest reason. The thing is, I usually take the same route. That's not the issue, really...there's nothing wrong with the route itself. But the problem is that it's pretty much littered with convenience stores and fast-food places. Now, the fast-food places don't bother me at all. In fact, I can't even remember the last time I ate fast food. Literally. But the convenience stores? Dear God. It seems like I can't pass by one of them without being called in by the siren song of junk food. :/
And to make matters worse, Easter's just over, which means that Easter candy is dirt cheap, and my absolute worst weakness is those Reese peanut butter Easter eggs. They're my kryptonite, and I know it, and yet I can't seem to control myself around them. At all. Ugh.
So -- I'm going to have to stop walking outside. Or pick a new route. Or stop taking money with me when I go. Or something. I need to do something to curb this ridiculous habit of mine. :/ I'm just so angry at myself, because when I originally lost the weight, I didn't have this issue. I was well able to avoid temptations on my walks. Maybe that was because I always knew, well, I would be having my "cheat night" on Saturday anyway, so I always told myself that I didn't need that stuff, because I'd be having my "indulgence night" in a few days.
I just don't know what my problem is this time around... :/ I only have 20 pounds to re-lose, you'd think this would be easy for me at this point.
