Saturday.....day one, need to get moving....
ramblings of an overweight almost 40.......
Date: 9/23/2006 12:51:48 PM ( 18 y ) ... viewed 1939 times It's Saturday, day one of some new resolve. Problem is that I lose focus and have already eaten. Sucks.
I have 30ish #'s to lose and it's not coming off. My clothing is tight, I'm tired, my husband is losing and not even trying to lose. My kids are doing fine, and daycare kids are awesome. Food, always it comes back to the food.
Food. Food for the soul (Bible), food for thought (devotions), and of course food for energy (eating). I would love to get moving on a liquid fast, the downfall is always that food looks, smells, and tastes so good. While not overly overweight (164 on a 5'4" athletic frame) my size 10's are snug. I would like them to be loose enough to feel good. With 4 kids in varying stages of life it's hard to focus and not get lost in the moment. Take today, doing great--husband on a trip, focused with purpose. Kids eating lunch and we're chatting and next thing I know I'm eating last nights Japanese leftovers. While not alot of food, it's depressing because then it's like--why not have more?--I've already blown it (again). But I'm back with my tea, and will just start over again.
I've done atkins, low fat, low carb, vegetarian (best choice), but am back in the funk again. This used to be soooo easy. This used to be so quick(er). This last baby has thrown me for a loop.
Walking, elliptical, weights, yoga....mix it all together with smart eating or juicing and this should be a breeze. But where is the motivation? What is the motivation?
Just finished my humaworm cleanse....and still the junk is coming out (this is good). And then the cat.....never mind about that, better forgotten and glad she's okay. What else? this may turn into a weekend blog as time is short. Time is time and I have not enough of it. I really need to find my groove again. And learn to love it again. And now I need to move on. 30# isn't that much in the scales of life, if it takes 6 mos. that's only 5# a month and if I keep it off forever then that works for me.
Maybe a partial liquid fast? That could be the key, write down what it is tempting me then have it in a smaller portion for one meal a day. Do liquid for the rest! I could do that.
I think I can, I think I can, I think I can.......
I couldn't. Tomorrow is a new day though and tonight is almost over. I've purchased some juice products, gotten rid of the chips and junk from my sons binge last night.
Doing yoga tonight instead of cardio.....lots of yoga. The kids do it also, so it works for everyone. My favorite part is when my two year old turns down dog into a somersault!! Very cute.
Tomorrow, I can do this....I can.
