Busy and Surviving

  • Mood:
  • Weight: 194
  • Pounds to Goal: 24

I have beento my desk lately. We have been doing regional meetings traveling throughout the state. After next week things should return to normal. Septmember was not a great month for me. I ended with 286 exercise minutes . I am working on getting my energy level back to normal. My number one priority is getting back on track with my vitamins. I either need to go back to my checklist or get me a pill box of some sort. Weightwise I am up to 194. Have been for two weeks now. I can't complain since planwise I am not being real strict right now. Keeping lowcarb, but not strict to Lean for Life. After I finish with the trainings, I am planning to get back in full gear. It's been hard to stay on track with conducting meetings and not having access to a refrigerator or not being in control of the food that's served.

I got this message in an email this morning and thought I would share. I believe in a new day, new beginnings, new mercy, new start. During these past few weeks I have said to myself that even though I am not losing weight I still have my new mindset. I am not in danger of the old me taking over. I have learned my lesson. As my pastor said Sunday, there is a purpose for hard times, trials and struggles. Learn your lesson the first time so that you don't have to repeat it.  

Getting Back on the Wagon


It happens — you miss a few workouts and you feel like your weight-loss plan is totally derailed. It's tempting to mentally slap yourself around, right? Before you start, I want you to remind yourself of something. Being hard on yourself is the Old You.

The New You knows how to deal with setbacks and get back on the wagon. And after all, there are no mistakes, just learning experiences. Weight loss is a process — it takes time. You will encounter small failures — everyone does — but every pound you gain can be lost.

And if you miss a workout, it's not the end of the world! Get to the gym the next day and continue to focus on your short-term goals. Just because you made bad choices today doesn't mean you can't start over tomorrow. New day? New beginning. And don't you forget it.
