Recommitting to myself...

  • I dont know why or how it even started but I've been spinning my wheels for way to long now. I broke a barrier and just keep floundering back and forth over it the past few weeks. I've not been committed to myself or my plan and thats not going to get me to where I want to be. I've got every motivation in the world to get fit and healthy and the only thing stopping me is me. Tomorrow I will turn it all around. Its going to be back to journaling, keeping track of food in fitday, exercising, and eating much much less. That darn easter bunny got me the past few days and I'm really feeling the punishment of it tonight. Its time to recommit to myself, I deserve better than the way I've been treating myself the past few weeks and its going to end. When I feel like eating off plan I will busy myself reading for school or supporting others in their goal to fit and healthy bodies. Enough is enough already. I've still got 2 1/2 months till our trip to Disneyworld and I can take a good chunk of weight off in that time. I can do this! Its about time! I just know I cant do it alone either so I need TONS of support!

    Sorry that turned into more of a journal entry than a post LOL! But I'm ready! Have a fantastic Wednesday everyone...I'm planning on it!

    A very wise person told me...failing to plan is planning to fail. I refuse to fail!
  • That's great Melissa.
    You're right, you can do this. You just need to keep telling yourself that. That's what I keep saying to myself over and over again.
    I think support is key and you can definitely find it here.

    Have a Great Day

  • I"m with you Melissa...been off the wagon myself for a few weeks due to comforting myself with food. I am starting fresh with new goals in the a.m. Going to get real with myself on the scale and accept what it has to tell me. I'm going to return to planning my meals and portions. Also, I will find alternative activities to eating myself into a stupor!!!!!!!!!!
    I'm grateful that I love to workout because that will only amplify any success I have with managing my food intake!!!
    I'll be checking in here at 3FC for support and encouragement too!!!
  • I had the exact same conversation with myself yesterday so you certainly aren't alone. I've been back on plan for only a day and a half but already I feel the old me coming out.
  • Leec....thanks so much for the support and encouragement! It really means alot!

    Maggie...hows the recommitment going? Staying strong and in control! You deserve the best! We can do it!

    Lucky...No going back! You can do it...we'll do it together!! You deserve to reach that goal!!

    So far so good for me, course its only just after lunch but so far I'm still committed to myself. Every choice has just got to be about meeting my goal. Its good to know I'm not alone!
