Where I come clean.
Thank you for the replies to the last post guys.
I honestly think it’s a matter of time now; my body will take care of it when it’s ready and there’s not much I can do about it.
I know I’ve been a lame blogger for some months now. I honestly miss it and I’ve been reading your posts (and even started commenting again).
Things here are… ok? Eh.
I have to be honest, I haven’t been feeling great.
People I care about are having serious problems and it’s frustrating because I can’t do anything about it. I’m not gonna talk about it online, obviously, it’s not my place.. but it seriously breaks my heart. Ugh, sorry for the mistery. :/
Besides that I’ve been in a rut. Before Christmas I was at an awesome place. Then Christmas came and I started eating more (which is kinda normal) and going to the gym a bit less. I still go several times a week, but I KNOW it’s just not enough. My problem is that when I start eating more it’s extremely difficult go get back into my healthy habits. And it’s taken me a month and I’m still honestly struggling with it. I’m making an effort so I can slowly go back to my former healthy(ier) self. I know this is a temporary thing but it’s still frustrating.
As I’ve said before, I’ve gained a bit of weight (not even that much!) and it’s amazing what a difference it makes. My clothes don’t ft so good and I just feel bleh. It’s mostly psichological? Indeed. Doesn’t make it easier.
I also have a really hard time going to the gym now. Cold outside + sad Diana isn’t a good combination, that’s all I’m saying.
So yeah. All these factors (and a couple more) have been bringing me down. I honestly just want to stay inside, warm, feeling sorry for myself. Horrible thing to admit, but there ya go.
I haven’t been taking photos of my meals but I think I’ll start again. It’s just a good way to keep myself accountable so I can go back to that place I want to be at, health and weight wise.
Today!
Breakfast: 2 low fat yogurts + Special K cereal
Snack: Pear
Lunch: Oats + water + milk + honey + cinnamon
I know, not very good. Dinner will have to feature some veggies.
Diana,
Thank you for being so honest. I think everyone goes through periods where they just don’t feel motivated to make the right decisions. The important thing is just to push through. Good luck to you!!
Diana, I am happy that you are blogging again! I understand about the rut. I have the same problem when I “let myself go” for a little while. Getting back into a routine feels a million times harder than maintaining one. I always try to tell myself that it’s “never too late to start again.”
I think everyone goes through those times where the motivation is waning and it’s hard to get back into the groove. Just take everything one day at a time
welcome back! i have really enjoyed reading your blog in the past so i’m happy to see you’ve made a return
