I ‘started’ again last Sunday, by which I mean after weeks of telling myself I was going to start again tomorrow, I rode through the cravings and the desire to sit on my arse and started eating well and building my exercise back up.
I lost 4lbs which I gained back over the summer and was feeling SO GOOD. Last night, I decided to split a macaroni cheese ready meal and loaded fries with my partner as a Friday ‘treat’ to avoid us defaulting to a pizza takeaway.
Accounted for in my daily calories, thoroughly enjoyed, stopped eating when I was full and didn’t turn into a binge. But because scales are the devil’s creature, this morning I’m allegedly 2lbs up.
I’ve been doing this long enough to know it’s probably extra salt from the ready meals, more carbs than I’m used to bloating me, water retention because I probably didn’t drink as much water as I should have done yesterday. But knowing all of these things does not stop my brain from thinking ‘fuck it let’s just do what we want today and start again tomorrow’.
I need motivation from those of you that lost serious weight, who are battling with the same struggles, basically anything to stop me feeling like I’ve fallen off the wagon today.
