Default Bad week!...time of the month

I say bad week but i haven't weighed in yet. I had lost 3 more lbs on Weds.

Mother Nature has been slowly pushing her way in and i caved in to the moods, pain and frustration. I am not proud of it, i went from at least 5 out of 7 days exercise to none in the last week. The only thing i am proud of is not eating drive through or pizza in this time. I did cave to my fiance bringing home chocolate though. And i have had alcohol this weekend.

It has made me realize something though. I often fail my new journey when my period hits. I have this week long build up, moody, sore, tired, hungry, run down, hate life. I can get through it but it's like once i get the actual period i give in, i eat candy, drink alcohol, and stop counting calories.

I just have to get back up from this and keep going. Thats why i am posting. So it's out there, my giving in to mother nature. There is no excuse but i find one. My goal next month is to get through my period without completely giving in to my lazy side. I was doing good, i was actually proud of myself and right now i feel like cr@p.

Wish me luck!

You're STILL doing good.

You know why? Because you are here. You are being accountable. And you have now promised us that you're not letting this little hiccup keep you from your goals.

So you had a bad couple of days. Put it behind you immediately. Exercise tomorrow. Plan out your meals now. So that when tomorrow morning comes you'll hit the ground running and return to your better, healthier choices.

No luck. You don't need luck. You already have everything it takes to do this.

Thanks everyone!

I woke up today and brushed it off. Exercised and am doing well with Calories. Took a sneak peek at the scale and it wasn't good, hoping it's mostly water retention for the high sodium intake over the weekend.
