Okay, Guacamole - first off, when you start to get dressed tomorrow, put on some ROCKING music. DO your hair, your face up and put on a big smile. Then put on your clothes. Chances are you'll feel a lot better in spirits by that point. You can feel crummy, sure, but then you're kind of feeding into that downer... But really TRY to do things to make yourself look like you feel good - choose some nice accessories you have for your outfit. Don't worry about the size - they're ALL OVER the place with the numbers - a 12 here is an 8 there, and a 14 over there.
Join us in the 40-something forum (if you haven't popped in yet today, I'm heading there now...) - you'll find support - we check in on each other - give good ideas to cram in more activity, or whatever you need! I sound a lot like you - I LOVE the carbs - and love life, so I'm not going to spend the rest of my life not eating foods I love. So just enjoying them in moderation and remembering that there will always be pizza
or cake or whatever - I literally say that out loud to myself sometimes... to get thru wanting more.
Today is your DAY ONE. Tomorrow is DAY TWO - no redo's in life. We don't start out at age 0 every time we mess up. Stringing together only successful perfect days defeats our purpose of learning how to improve at this. What three things can you do today to get this started?
I had a journal entry titled, how many Day Ones can I have? And then it "clicked" only one - the day I was born. And we just go from there. You're human and like everyone else, you face challenges. We've all set those goals that we let slip.
Now we've got 28 days - four weeks - until the start of memorial day weekend. What do you want to do in that time? And then set another small goal ... and another one... C'MON! You can do it!
