I failed miserably in the last challenge - I will try again - This time I will break it down to a daily challenge. Hence it is 1030am and I am here in my little apartment with hubby having gone to work and little baby asleep. The challenge for the day is simply to avoid sugar and drink 2 litres of water for the next 24 hours. Think I can do that? Well I will give it a bloody good shot.
Where did I think I failed? I think I identified that I had to begin all over again and the goal seemed all too much and the ever familiar feeling of having failed seemed more comfortable than succeeding. You see success in the food and exercisepart of my life has not been a familiar feeling and over a period of time it is simply easier to fail and almost come to a predictable end than to change the storyline and wonder now what do I do next? I dont know it this makes sense but having gotten here after 3 weeks indicates how well I did at failing and just not showing up.
Anyway, this blog is not about beating myself up. It is about picking up them familiar pieces again and starting again. So today I will go for a long walk with my little one. I should be able to swing her away for about a 5km walk if I feed her well and proper. I have bought my trackpants and jumper and am all ready to go.
So my update for today is:
- I weigh 114.2 (gain of 400gms)
The goals for the DAY are:
- NO SUGAR
- STAY POSITIVE
- One 30 min walk a day
- Drink 2 litres of water
- Write my food diary today
The next weigh in will be next Monday but before breakfast unlike today where I have had breakfast, a piece of cake....alright 2 pieces of cake, chocolate and a cup of coffee. I will also research sugar addiction as I have zeroed down to this being my addiction in particular which really should make it easy as I only have one demon to beat and not several like a lot of others.
