I'm back. It's late and so this entry will be short. I can't believe I haven't blogged in over six months. I have been cruising down a long road of unhealthy eating and living an inactive lifestyle. It has to stop. In approximately seven months I will be 30; before this date I have committed to two goals:
Definite Goal:
- to lose 30 pounds by my 30th birthday
Hopeful Goal:
- to lose 60 pounds by my 30th birthday.
Every time I think about weight I get anxiety. Something small and that I don't even remember now happened earlier today and my immediate thought was 'god I want to house a chocolate bar'. I haven't binged in a long time (since before I stopped blogging) and I have just spent the last six months eating a lot of mall-type food (food court food etc).
I also can't believe that I have gained about 13 pounds in six months! I really thought it was only 5 or 6 and it's really stressing me out. I'm trying to let it go and just move on, but it's stressful... I re-joined Weight Watchers tonight and am going to start planning and grocery shopping tomorrow and start my fist official full day on Thursday 13 December. I hope to lose 5 pounds before Christmas. I have a relatively high goal because I know that it's easy to lose a few pounds in your first week. I'm back up to 279 pounds or so, and I last weighed in here at 266. Wow. by the end of January I would like to be around 260-264.
How have you come back from a long hiatus and succeeded? How have you changed your mindset? I'm kind of desperate for some advice at this point! :/
