My 30 Day Goal is:
Lose whatever weight to get to 170 lbs.
Current Thought:
What an idiot. I totally sabotaged my progress yesterday, just because I was bored. I’d been busy all morning in 4 short, back to back meetings, then nothing for the rest of the day. I’d eaten my lunch by 11.45am. Went for my walk early. Ate all my snacks by 2pm. With another 3.5 hrs to go I decided to nip over to M+S and get a little, healthy snack. I came back with their festive sausage roll, a festive pretzels and dip pot, and the brain, protein and gut balls, with the honest intention of saving the latter 3 until the next day. But no. I systematically went though the lot. I did a 20min workout when I got home but felt so heavy and lethargic I barely did all the moves without having to stop halfway through. Then I ate my dinner like I’d been staved all week. And to cap it all, not only do I feel like crap this morning and have put those pounds on again overnight, I forgot to make my breakfast juice last night, and don’t have time this morning.
Current Emotion
Idiotic.
Todays Standard:
I am a woman who:
needs to make amends for yesterday. Keep to plan. Drink lots of water. I have no breakfast this morning, so that will teach me. I will not let boredom become an excuse for over indulgence.
Todays Sweet Spot:
I think:
I will be determined to not give in to boredom or temptation. I will remember my why, and how far I’ve come.
I feel:
like an idiot for letting it get the better of me. I’d got so close to this month’s goal, which was also last months, as I didn’t achieve it then.
I do:
1) (body) lunchtime walk. Workout.
2) (mind) keep myself occupied rather than a food.
3) (soul) plan next weeks meals to really push this last chance.
Future Self Pep Talk:
No matter how “ordinary” you might think you are, I promise you that you can not only create an extraordinary body, but an extraordinary life too.
Celebrations/Gratitudes:
Gratitude for a lesson learned. Not to give in to boredom cravings. The magic won’t happen by itself.
