So tonight when I came home from work I went to the grocery store and stocked up on some more veggies for the week. I get so mad at myself for not sticking to things. I think about last week and how I did so well Monday - Friday afternoon. Then I let myself eat carbs this weekend and it's like I allowed the flood gates to open. You know what I mean? I'm just frustrated. I've wanted for so long to be in the 140's and I really thought this time would be different. I'm by no means giving up, because I still have plenty of time until July 15th and even beyond that I have time. I really thought the St. Thomas trip would be the final wake-up call to get my butt in gear. I'm fine with the working out, if I go into the gym with no expectations. I've found it's the times I tell myself what I have to do turn into me cheating myself. Urghhhh, just really overwhelmed right now.
It doesn't help that I log onto Facebook and I see that one old friend has lost 20 lbs on the South Beach diet and another has lost 30 lbs on Weight Watchers. I think I need to call the dietitian offered through the EAP at work. Maybe that could be what really helps me to realize what it is that I need to do to change my diet to see the scale drop?
I did workout tonight. I really wanted to run intervals again for an hour, but ended up calling it quits after 20 minutes. What's up with that? Then when I came back to my apartment I got on the stationary bike for 30 minutes. So I can be happy I did something, just not what I was expecting. See I should be happier and yet I just beat myself up. No good.
