It's Been a long journey to get to where I am. Sometimes it feels like I start and stop and start again. Revisiting things I have done, said I would do, know and haven't done. So to get out of this rut of starting and stopping again, I am revitalizing this blog and creating a Knowledgebase. A place to learn from my life experiments and remember what I set out to do. Building upon the knowledge I had before. Always learning and always improving

Day 52 of 100---self sabotage??
Wednesday this week I was commenting to my friend how I had such a great blood sugar number and I felt that my eating was exactly where I wanted it to be on Tuesday. It was feeling good. Wednesday I started feeling like all of that was lost, and then today I have been eating with abandon. True when you begin exercise routines your body wants to maintain your weight and so you have a greater appetite. In that I also am in the part of my cycle where I begin to crave chocolate and other sweets. But this is all feeling like excuses.
I admit I have trouble with self motivation and half of the time I end up writing in my food and posting almost as an afterthought. So the question is am I doing this subconsciously to myself because I don't want to lose the weight? Is there something that I am doing that I don't believe myself capable of? What am I afraid of? Being strong? Healthy?
Or is this all emotional eating because I have not been feeling good? I know I eat when I am uncomfortable...maybe that is all it is and I don't need to look any farther.
Either way, I am going to pay more attention to my thoughts and focus on my water intake this week. I want it to become a true habit. 64 oz a day!
And truth be told I am changing my life one day at a time, it is normal for things to move slowly...one successful day a week will turn into two and then three until soon I will only see the old me once a week or once a month. That sounds like true progression. Really what I am thinking is that I don't need to worry about my "fall off the wagon" I had a day where I saw my possibilities and now I can strive to have another one. It isn't about jumping into the new me it is about forming the new me one step at a time!! I give myself permission to take it one day and one step at a time instead of all or nothing!
