Oh, I was going so well, but the past 3 days have been filled with eating too much of the bad stuff. The good news is that I stepped up my exercise a bit to compensate, but still, I feel like crud.
It's back to the grind tomorrow. I figure if I can be good that 80% of the time like Dr. Phil says, I can afford a bad 3 day spell once per month.
I am so good during the week at work and at home, but it seems like when the weekend shows up I don't stay as focused on watching what I eat. That is probably because I'm more stressed at home right now than I am at work. I think that if you are not going completely overboard on the weekend that 80% of the time will still give you results, it will just take a longer time to reach your goal.
I have more difficulty on the weekends too. Not with eating the wrong foods but with eating too much of the right foods. There's always more people at my house on weekends and I have a hard time not eating something while everyone else is always eating. This weekend was good, but it's usually not.
Weekends are my enemy! Food wise, anyway. My entire schedule is completely different on the weekends so it makes it tough. I have been improving, though! Baby steps is the key.
Im the same way. But my weekends are during the week. I work 4 10 hour days. The hardest thing for me is getting enough food on my days off and I also dont drink enough water. I think it's because when Im at home Im so busy feeding my kids and doing chores I dont think about needing to eat. But it has the same effect. When I dont eat enough calories I tend to gain a pound or so.
Oooh...I had a bad weekend too. The first in quite a while. Chips and dip, 2 slices of ice cream cake on Saturday. Along with 2 portabella mushroom burgers with cheese. It was SOOO good though! LOL
Oooooh! My bad weekend has turned into a bad Monday & Tuesday. I don't know where my willpower went all of a sudden. I do know I have PMS going on, so that may have something to do with it. I added an extra 30 minutes to my workout these past 2 days to help compensate. I went clothes browsing this afternoon because it always seems to refocus me by getting me to think about all the sexy clothes I'll be able to wear if I buckle down again. I've been PMSing & have been bored lately. I need to get busy & get undepressed. LOL!
Tomorrow is a NEW day. I'm back on the horse as of right now!
I think I need to go back to taking it hour by hour. I do better that way.
Shout out to anyone who had a bad weekend!
