Well, I completely fell off the wagon there for awhile. I told ya, I'll do well for a couple of weeks then BAM, I fall right back down.
I am proud to say that we, as a family, went to the gym tonight. Kev and I got a great workout in while the kids played in the play area. We cycled for 1/2 an hour, then did walking and jogging intervals on the track. Can I just say how helpful it was to have Kev there with me? He can be brutally honest, when I come right out and ask him, or say something about my self image, but it doesn't upset me like it used to, b/c I KNOW that he loves me and is truly trying to help.
I don't know what I'm going to do about weight watchers anymore. I like the meetings, but I guess I just feel so alone in the program and it just about kills me to think of tracking every single dang thing that I eat. But I know that's what will work. Who knows...maybe I'm just a hopeless cause on my eating habits. I feel like eating makes me happy and gives me comfort (although many times I find myself feeling so guilty after making a poor food choice.) Perhaps if I can get some good exercise habits back into my life, the good eating will come. When I got in the best shape of my life (right before I got married) all I did was do tae bo every day and I just naturally turned away from fast food and junk food. I still think I definitely need to watch what I eat for optimal results but for me right now, I've just got to take one step at a time. "One choice at a time."
I'm glad you're back. Good work going to the gym! It definitely helps to have someone go with you. I wish I was in a position to go with you, I definitely need to, but it's not a good idea right now. Give me a year, perhaps, and then I can.
ReplyDeleteKeep going, you can do it. :)
