small steps
I fell off the wagon for a couple of weeks. It really sucks..I just ate whatever and didn't exercise so no loss and definitley some gain in weight. Yesterday I decided that I am not going to sit at home all day anymore and feel sorry for myself cause I can't get my lazy ass to get up and do some exercise. I walked to the library got a couple of books came home read some and then had a snack and went out for a 3 mile walk. I also found a little area I can run for a few minutes after my walks. I have devolped a...uhh..urge I guess? to RUN. I want to be a runner. I want to run far. I want to feel like nothing can stop me. I'm going to start training soon. I'm starting slow just some intervals of walk/run after my walks. I think because I have been walking for almost 2 months I have built a good base and that's why when I run now it dosen't hurt like it did when I tried it a few months ago. I can actually handle running for a minute and more. When I first tried running months ago, my shins hurt and so did my knees my legs killed. I'm proud of this progress.I can't count calories. I have said this before many times. I always promise myself in the beginning of the week that I am going to count this week and keep track. But I can't. I know what a healthy meal looks like, I know what a healthy snack looks like. I can do it without counting I just have to figure out a different way to be accountable. Whenever I counted it was always an excuse to eat something unhealthy because it was still in my 'calorie range' I can't do that anymore. I'm going to start slow. I'm going to change my dinners first. I am going to make sure I am getting more veggies in my dinners and also good carbs. I'm not big on meat so it will be hard to get some protein in there.
