The weekends have been rough. All week I eat clean and exercise. I feel good and healthy. The weekend arrives and I find myself thinking things like "this will be my cheat meal, no big deal!" 6 cheat meals/snacks later when sunday rolls around I feel awful. I am back at square one and have gained back the weight I lost that week. When will I learn?
I notice that when I am in a certian atmosphere- my office or at home I don't struggle to stay on track. Once I am in new social situations or at a friends house I think of it as some kind of vacation land where nothing counts. Hmmm. Clearly that is not reality.
I am going to shoot for a small goal this weekend. I will eat clean and stick to my portions. Not because I want to punish myself or because indulging is wrong but because overeating makes me feel terrible. I want to loose those last 5 pounds I have been trying for several months to shed. Taking 1 step forward and 2 back is just not the way to success. I know that so I am pledging to do it differently this weekend. I will think of it as a challenge and I will succeed!
