Gosh, I really wondered about starting a personal "diary thread".
Why ? Because I NEVER have kept at it.
But now I am a WeMITTS sooooo here I go.
Yesterday I was feeling terrible. Hating myself and my body, lethargic and down.
I managed to stick with a day of healthy eating and went to my first Zumba class. ( how I enjoyed it !! ) I came out smiling and feeling so much better. Shame it was so late in the day when I went.
Today I feel more positive. Managed to get up in time for an hour at the gym before work and am planning on a yoga class after work.
Regarding my weight, I´m at my heaviest since having children ( long time ago ). It´s been creeping up over the last year or so and I´ve had a hard time sticking at any diet for more than a few days at a time. I realise I stress eat. Something I never thought I did.
It´s a bit of a vicious circle isn´t it. Feel uncomfortable with yourself and body.. find yourself eating for comfort and feel worse.
Very weird, cause I for one feel so much better when I am active and eating well.
I am my worst enemy. I know that. I must learn to sit out a craving, to remember that it passes and I don´t need to act on an impulse to do something I know isn´t in my own best interest.
So here I go...
I really want to drop around 18lbs by the end of July but I mainly want to feel comfortable with myself again.
