Time for confession. I know I post a lot about my fitness journey and I tend to share the highlight reel most of the time. You know, the feel good super duper moments. Well, it isnt all like that so I figured I would share this stuff too. On Sunday I shopped for our household. I bought Oreos. I told myself they were for Dan, but secretly I wanted some too. Well, yesterday I binged on them. I think I ate at least 7 over the course of the day. I felt horrible, but couldnt stop! Let me try that again, I didnt stop. I CHOSE the feel good feeling of eating sweets over what I KNOW to be better for me. As a result I had no energy, felt sick and missed my workout. Later in the evening we pawned the cookies off on a neighbor, but the damage was done (and strangely enough, I didnt want to let them go). Though I have gotten really great results and I consider myself to be FAR better off than I ever have been--stronger, more aware, more energy, more positive outlook etc--I still have moments where I struggle and lose the battle. But Im winning the war. Today I did a double workout (not to undo the damage, but to make up for my missed workout) and fed my body what it craves. I feel like Ive come out of the slump and am moving on. It sucks to admit this, but this is reality. There are highs and lows. If you are on your journey too, youll have them as well. Youve got to pick yourself up and move on. Get back on track with your goals and keep plugging along. It takes time and consistency, and there will certainly be set backs but if most of your days are good, youll see progress. Give it time!
