Posted this in the "panic button thread" on http://www.sparkpeople.com/ too but I wanted to keep it here to have it recorded so I can look back and remind myself what I do what I let my emotions get the better of me....
Please help! I need a good kick in the rear lately. I keep saying I'm going to get back on track and I just keep failing.
Against my better judgement I went out to grab lunch...the day after I decided I'd start a small baby step goal - 5 lbs this month. Not ridiculous...less than 2 lbs / week. I didn't over indulge but I did succumb to some emotional cravings. I also just chomped down some charleston chews that were in the bag of Easter candy I brought to the office for the sole purpose of making sure I didn't eat all of it! I just logged the food I've eaten all day and I'm frustrated and angry with myself.
I have eaten 2 times the max number of calories I should eat in a day. And dinner hasn't even rolled up yet.
To make things better I need to get to the gym. Planning to do some weights and a class. Thinking of tossing in a TurboJam DVD when I get home too just to burn off more calories and sweat. I know I need to do this. I have every reason to do it. How is it that I keep finding ways to make excuses for myself?
