fallen

February 5th, 2009 | Comments | Posted in Crooked Eyebrow |

This past week has been a whirlwind of emotions and I’m guessing the scale would only make it worse. You know what happens with me and emotions? Eating. Yes, even when I’m not hungry I will find something full of fat and sugar to eat. It’s automatic and a bad habit I have been trying to break. But I fell hard this week, in more ways then one. 

Last week I was on track, losing an amazing 5# and  starting the couch to 5k program. I was feeling fabulous, ready to take on the world.This week? Not one step was taken that wasn’t absolutely needed. There were only steps taken to the couch and then to the kitchen. I fell off the wagon.

Then with awful news to start my week I turned to pizza and chocolate. In a senseless act I had a fluttering thought that chocolate would heal my soul for that one moment. In went half a bag of peanut butter cups. Did I feel better? Nope. Only guilty. I hate guilt.

Today I struggle to pick myself up and dust off my hands and get back on track. I have to, it is far better emotional and physically for me if I do so. It beats sitting and eating, right? Right. By next week I hope I will be talking about how great it feels to run and to be eating right. No more falling of track…

Have you fallen too? I hope you know it’s ok. Pick your self back up and find your way back and get going. If I can, you can! Will you be right along with us again next week? I sure hope so, because all my sisters motivate me.

 

 

*thank you for all your kind words and prayers over the last few days. From the bottom of my heart, I love you.

    Sometimes we can't control the circumstances around us so we do the best we can. You are strong and will persevere! You can do it!!!
  • There is not a single person in this world who would fault you for falling off track. But know that we're all cheering you on as you get back on track. I love you and know you're going to succeed!
  • I fell off last week too. I got back on today with a trip to the gym and only *a few* chocolates during "naptime". We do our best for what's going on in our lives, and that's all that can be asked of us.

    I fell off a bit this week. Mostly PMS related. Also because I've been on WW for 5 weeks or so now and I just needed a little FUN food. :)

    I'm getting back on the horse slowly and you will, too!

    It's ok to have down time. Otherwise we go too long without indulging and we overdo it when we do!

    My hard core fall back food this week?? Ben & Jerry's Cherry Garcia lowfat frozen yogurt...Not so lowfat when you eat half a pint at a time!
  • I went through a time back in the fall where mentally I just couldn't handle the weight loss thing, so I took a break. And you're exactly right, it's ok. And after those breaks, we just have to pick ourselves up and get back to it! You are strong; I know you will succeed! :o)

    You have been so brave and open. We all fall off the wagon at some point, the key is to get back on. :)
  • Donya, so many people in your situation would just give up. The fact that you're willing to get up and dust yourself off says so much about you. You are strong and you will emerge victorious from this terrible tragedy.

    I love you so much!!
  • I have no doubt you will get back up and on track. You are a strong woman. Love ya!
