So I've "fallen off the wagon" the last week and a half. With everything that has been going on (moving, finals, graduation, my graduation party) I've been eating shitty and I've not exercised at all. I haven't even been wearing my Fitbit. I'm at 273.9 though, so I'm still doing okay with the weight loss. I have started back on myfitnesspal, with tracking my food (as of yesterday), and I plan to workout daily starting this evening.
I really hope to get it together and start getting active again. I want to be fit and healthy. That's one of my major goals in life. I want to enjoy food, but I want it to be a healthy relationship, not one that debilitates me. Well I'm slammed with things I've gotta get done, so this is a short one...

Falling down and getting up again
This has been a rough week to put it mildly. We have been moving and I just haven't had time to work out or prep food. I weighed myself this morning and it said 275.2 lbs. That is NOT where I wanted to be right now. I'm going to bust my ass for the rest of this week. I know there is a SERIOUS cheat day coming the day of my grad party, but I worked hard for YEARS to finally get a degree and so I'm not super concerned about it. I listed all of the food I'm going to eat and it is 570 calories over my daily allowance. I know that's a lot and it's a lot to be PLANNED, but my goal for that day is to eat what is on myfitnesspal and NOTHING extra. I've allowed for a bit of everything that I want to eat, so I'm not going to be deprived, but I'm not going to sit and munch on chips or whatever.
I think that the 21 day fix diet plan was a little overwhelming for me. I felt too free if that makes sense. It wasn't strict tracking so I found myself not tracking at all. I really think myfitnesspal works best for me, but the workouts on the 21 day fix are for sure killer and I plan to keep those up. I'm going to do my own thing for the diet though, at least I'm going to be tracking calorie intake on myfitnesspal.
I'm kind of bummed about where I am right now, I was doing so good for a couple months and I feel like I've stalled. I really want to be at my goal weight by my 29th birthday. I know its a journey, but
I'm going to start doing my weigh-ins on Wednesdays. "Wednesday Weigh-ins" and I'm going to keep an Excel Spreadsheet of them. Then I can look back and see exactly what's going on with my weight. I think I might do measurements too (since I got an electronic tape measure). Tomorrow will be the first day of doing that. I hope this will get me back on track and I can be in the 260's before Graduation!!
Well I only have two more weeks of insanity, and then maybe life will calm down for a bit. Hopefully.
