Well, it's been quite some time since I blogged, and that's because I began to slip back into my old habits, and made a left turn instead of continuing on the trajectory I was on to get to my goal weight. I mean, last summer I was so dedicated to getting fit that the day after I had hand surgery I was in the gym on the elliptical with my huge cast.
Dedication of last Summer
Now that I've decided to go back to taking advantage of all the help and support I have at my disposal with my friends and family cheering me on, I feel better already.
Some of the steps I've already taken include meal planning, preparing meals and snacks for the week, making a daily schedule so I know when to get up and walk around and when to clean/organize, when to keep busy so I don't snack out of boredom (my weakness) or even simply knowing when to sleep.
I like to think that I try to think of the things I SHOULD do rather than a list of "no"s, as in, what I can't eat or can't do or the like. I'm just glad I'm getting back on the wagon before I slip completely back to where I was. Luckily I didn't gain back too much of the 70 pounds I ended up losing, but still.
We'll see what happens. Stay tuned.
