It's Day 6, Week 2 today... perhaps I should have started this diary when I started the diet!
Caved again yesterday, man I suck! This second week has not been a good one. For those of you that hadn't read my post on my first cheat I was quite nauseated and nausea + empty stomach = pain for me. So after about 30 minutes or so of dealing with the pain, I couldn't take it anymore, we were quite far from home so we stopped and I had a chicken ceasar salad.
That was Sunday, was back on the horse Monday and all was well, but yesterday the $hit hit the fan again. My son got a really high fever (he's 15 months) and was absolutely miserable for the whole day. Currently I'm not working (which I hate, but I'm starting college in September so yay!) so I was home with him all day and there was just no end to his misery, poor baby. He's great today, but I was so stressed out by the end of yesterday evening that I just caved in and got a takeaway with my hubby (chicken kebab and garlic cheese chips
). Not good I know.
I just seem to give in when I get really stressed out! I'm determined to be strong from now on, I'll probably stick a picture of the Bajan flag on my fridge as my reminder of how fit I want to be before I go back to visit my folks.
I feel like such a failure today, but I also feel like I know I can do this, I quit smoking so I should be able to do this right? My weigh in is tomorrow. I know there won't be much shift in the scales if any, I'm just hoping it doesn't go up! I lost 9lbs the first week and I was 100% so if I don't lose any weight this week I'll just write it off as me screwing up and just get right back on the horse.
My hope that I don't gain any weight is relying on me going to the gym. I usually go Sat, Mon, Wed and Fri. The days I don't go to the gym I walk with my son for like an hour and a half (him in the stroller of course). On Monday I went for the walk and then the gym in the afternoon and had my walk in the morning yesterday, so I'm hoping that if I keep this up and if I'm really really lucky, I might see a pound shift this week.
Wish me luck!
