I'd like to say I'm back on track but I've been ummmmm... allowing bad habits creep back into my daily living. Like... I need to constantly be putting something in my mouth! I find myself snacking all the time. I know I'm emotionally feeding myself and that I'm not really hungry or need to eat but I can't seem to get myself to stop! At times, I didn't even realize that I was eating again!!!
The rest of the gang that started this Health Challenge dropped out and to be quite honest... now that I don't have accountability to someone... it's easier put off a healthier choice for another day. I'm frustrated and annoyed at the whole situation but that would be only my fault because I guess I was leaning on them to keep me accountable instead of holding myself accountable for ME!!!!!!
Right now I'm trying to get back to making healthier choices... putting back the good habits I used to practice but I find myself resisting all the changes I'm trying to do. I guess it's because I'm trying do it all at the same time (counting calories, going to the gym and picking up where I left off 3 weeks ago or so...). I didn't think it would be too difficult to pick up where I left off but I'm wrong! I'm struggling with simplest of things like having an apple with some nuts as a snack or even just drinking enough water!!!! I've got to break it down again... so as of right now ... for this weekend and coming week, I'm focusing on staying within my 1200-1500 calorie intake and drinking water everyday with some form of physical activity. I won't focus on the what and how long part of the physical activity right now. I just need to spend time on reflecting and being conscious of what goes into my body! My goal is to get into a routine again... to develop my good habits!
The good news is I'm still under 160 lbs... by 0.5 lbs. *sigh* but that's something.
I'm going to commit to just keep pushing through every day!
Treasure of the day...
"For we are saved by hope; but hope that is seen is not hope: for what a man seeth, why doth he yet hope for? But if we hope for that we see not, then do we with patience wait for it."
Romans 8:24-25
trust HIS heart
"But He said to me, "My grace is sufficient for you, for my power is made perfect in weakness." ...For when I am weak, then I am strong." 2 Corinthians 12:9,10
~God is enough for me... for my problems, my pain, my hurt and my desires. When I am afraid or worried or self-condemning, I will remember WHO sustains me! God is sufficient! So I will lay my burdens, flaws, needs, guilt, anger, frustration, fear, disappointments and desires on His shoulders and trust His heart!!!~
"God is too wise to be mistaken, God is too good to be unkind, So when you don't understand, When you don't see His plan, When you can't trace His hand, Trust His heart" ~Babbie Mason
“Success is the sum of small efforts, repeated day in and day out.” ~Robert Collier
