Saturday, 10/23 - HUGE SIGH

I went to the gym this morning.  I know I know, I went last night, but I won't be able to go tomorrow so I wanted to get there today.  It was a better workout than last night, but not great. 
I'm getting into my "end of the week" slump.  For the past year it seems as though I haven't been able to stick to any new "healthy" eating plan for more than 3 or 4 days.  At the beginning of the week I'm always all fired up and focused on losing weight, and then by the end of the week I'm like, "what was it that I was going to do?"  Okay, so time to refocus.  I'm almost done with ONE week, of hopefully many many many (eek) weeks on a road to a healthier, happier, and thinner me. 
I just hate the mind games, you know?  Part of me just wants to sit back and say, "screw it, give me some cake", and then there's the other part of me that's saying, "you HAVE to stick with this, this is what you want, don't take the lazy way out saying, "oh well, I tried but it just didn't work."  I'm sick of that first voice, that first voice is why I'm 60 pounds overweight.
(Another huge sigh).  I'm just down, not sure why.  I haven't blown the diet or anything, I'm just not totally pumped about anything right now.  Maybe I should go on a short walk and get some fresh air, that might help (it sure as heck can't hurt!).

  1. I hear ya, Colleen! I am SO not in the mood to workout today but know I have to. (wedding season caught up with me...my jeans told me so)). And you are right, a crappy workout is better than no workout at all. I just went for a walk and it kind of helped, so hopefully yours will do the same and better. Happy Saturday, love the blog! :)---Sarah C.
