Hey, ladies!!! Its been while I posted here. Its been terrible for me for the last week or so. Well, saturday before last was my son's 2nd birthday, and we had a big party. We cooked several dishes from home, and had a lots of people over. I didn't do so bad, but still had more than I should've. Well, anyways I was back on program the next day. I was doing great for couple of days and then I got sick on Tuesday. I got food poisoning, and was very sick. So, my workouts were out of the window for the week. So, I haven't worked out since Monday!!! I am feeling much better!!! Well, then Chinese new year came around which is actually today. We celebrate it too, so yesterday all of the Mongolians got together at Karaoke bar, and had dinner... etc at very late. I haven't eat much during the day because I knew I would be eating late. I don't drink any alcohol, so for me it was some food last night. I was planning on working out this morning but we went to bed at 3 am this morning and I had big exam on tonight's class. So, I didn't workout at all for a week. And I feel terrible, but I know I couldn't do anything when I was sick. I was basically in bed for several days. I am going out to workout tomorrow. I am sorry for complaining so much, but I need your support and encouragements. I feel so down, and I feel like I am going to get big again!!!
i can totally relate. except i have stopped working out for the past few months!! i'd say just get started back in the routine as soon as possible and it will all be fine. dont let this become your new routine (like i did!) you can do it!! just make a plan and stick to it!
rah rah!! :-) wacky cheerleader dance going on
and ps looks like we are at about the same place, trying to get to the same place!
Thanks you guys for your support. I finally went out and did hour long cardio this morning. I will continue to do what I was doing, and hopefully I will get there soon. Readyfreddy, yeah it seems like we're stuck at same place. May be we can keep in touch to motivate each other!!! Anyways, thanks so much for the support!!1
There should be a thread in the Support section about 'Feb 1st - planning for a nearly perfect day'. Try to find it. Plan tomorrow out tonight and then come back several times tomorrow and tell us how you're doing. It may be a bit of a challenge but it's only one day .....
I think you just need a big <<<hug>>> and a "rah" cheer! You've done so well that I'll bet you've had down times before. Just climb back up there and keep up with the good stuff.
Boy, that food poisoning has been making the rounds! I had it 2 weeks ago, although I actually found I *lost* weight that week even though I stopped counting calories. Food didn't...uh...stay in my intestines long enough for most of the week for all the calories to get absorbed/count. My sister accused me of cheating and making the diet easier on myself.
You shouldn't apologize for "complaining so much"-- we're all here to share our lows as well as highs! And actually it doesn't even sound like you were that low; you didn't work out for a week (with good reason), but you didn't let yourself get out of control food-wise either. I would be proud of being so together through holidays, festivities and sickness!
Wow, thank you ladies!!! It made me feel so good, and i went out to workout this morning as well. I am so glad I have you guys to lean on. I do have full support of my family, and my husband. Its just better when it comes from people who are going through same thing and knows how I'm feeling. Thank you, and thank you for your kind words, and supports.
Doing terrible!!!
