It's been too long. *sigh* I really need to get better at finding time to update.
Let me fill you in: One fuckup after another. I'm back up to 133 lbs.
I haven't been running. I have been snacking too much. Especially late afternoon and late at night right before bed. The snacking has completely destroyed my other diet efforts. The amount of candy and sugar that I eat is embarrassing. It's shameful to go back and look at my food diary.
I have a bit of motivation now both for eating right and exercising more. We are going to Hawaii in October and there is a half-marathon in November that I want to participate in. I want to be the person that is known for being healthy. I want to be strict about meal planning and exercising. I know that a persona is not created overnight so it's going to take time, effort, and patience to get there.
Mainly I'm sick of starting over and promising myself "tomorrow".
I've missed so much on each of your blogs! I'll be catching up with you all tonight <3

Hey there stranger :) Life gets in the way sometimes, don't fret about not being able to post as regularly as you might like.
ReplyDeleteFocus on taking just one little step at a time working towards the person you ideally want to be. One day at a time, one moment at a time, is all we can do. You know where you want to be, and you will get there eventually.
Your intake for today looks very sparse, especially with the exercise. I know it's a cliché and no where near that simple (and probably quite hypocritical), but I just don't want you setting yourself up for disappointment by aiming for something unsustainable. I'm a huge believer in the fact our bodies work best with consistency, whether that's 200 or 2,000 calories.
Take care deary. Hope to see you posting more often soon <3 xx
shhhhhhh now, Scarlett, angel, it's fine. it happens. and stop saying that about yourself. food flirts with us. it's a little cheap whore and we have the instinct to go after them.
ReplyDelete"The amount of candy and sugar that I eat is embarrassing." not to me. remember. there's always someone that consumes a lot more than you. if i'm going to have sugar, it's not going to be a in banana. it's going to be in a chocolate bar. and i'm proud of it because i'm a weird little midget. and it's not embarrassing at all. in fact, most girls i know that are quite thin eat the most amount of candy and sugar i've ever seen in my life. seriously.
that's so hot. a half-marathon is ew. but Hawai sounds quite like something now, doesn't it?
(Mainly I'm sick of starting over and promising myself "tomorrow".) better than me. i promise myself "next month".
not much to catch up on i'm afraid. i had a slow but sharp meltdown and consumed my blog posts. but of course.
i stare at that intake and wonder where's the food. i'm sorry that doesn't make up one meal for me so you can imagine my slight shock now. x
