I was doing really well for a while. I lost more than 50 pounds and thought that I had made real headway into a lifestyle change as opposed to a diet. Then I got a different job. Suddenly I was working 12 hour days and had an hour and a half commute both ways. I ate when and where I could. Going to the gym was impossible since it was only open until 8pm and I wasn't getting home until 11. Then I got transferred to a store that is much closer to home but is located smack dab in the middle of a mall food court. I smell food ALL DAY LONG. I gained 40 of the pounds back.
As of Sunday, I am getting back on track. I have been to the new gym I joined (that has much more accomodating hours) 3 times. I've gone horseback riding twice (the one thing I didn't give up when I fell off the wagon!) And I've eaten very well all week (Lean proteins, veggies, and fruit). It's going to be much more difficult this time with all this temptation literally right outside my door, but I am committed to doing it this time. Our next girl's weekend is at the end of May. I plan on being back at the weight I was at that time last year.
