As we are coming up on 20 days of dieting, I figured I would give a little update. One thing I know I need to do, is buy a scale! I think if I could actually see the numbers going down it will help my motivation.
This weekend was NOT good for the diet. I must admit that J and I cheated a few times. AND I haven't been to the gym since last Thursday... I am going tonight though. I think I want to start going in the mornings. I think I will feel more refreshed throughout the day and I won't have an excuse of "being too tired" after work.
I think the biggest thing I need to remind myself is that I am only human. I am going to fail and I'm not going to eat the way I should all day, everyday for the rest of my life. It's crazy to admit this, but when I ate what I consider "my favorite foods" this weekend, they weren't as great as I was expecting. Not to mention I felt really yucky for a few days. I was also disappointed in myself!
I can do this!
Needless to say, I think it will be quite awhile before I have another cheat day, or at least one like this past weekend. While I feel like I've been dieting for quite awhile, its not even been 3 weeks!
I really think I just needed to get all of this out so that I would feel better. I already feel better and I'm a little more motivated than I was before.
