Week Three-Moderation


Let me tell you something. Sometimes you have a hard day...other times you have a hard week. Last week kind of reminded me of skipping backwards pregnant. I totally forgot to post my new picture last monday because I didn't workout, because I can't even remember right now, but I'm sure it was a good reason and the rest of the week was a mere struggle to survive...health wise anyway!

Okay, lesson learned: some weeks you feel like you are moving in reverse, ruining everything you worked for in previous weeks. When I feel like that (this last week) I choose something to focus on and let the other balls drop. At least I feel like I didn't loose it all.

This week was very fun and very busy. I spent the first half of the week at a cottage on a river with my in-laws (thanks again Aunt Dorothy!). It was so much fun and great food (and my personal contribution of candy..yummy candy) that it was hard to stick to EVERYTHING. So I chose just one thing to focus on so I could enjoy the trip and not feel guilty; since I don't think you should feel guilty for enjoying a vacation. Moderation (it's the most important to my weightloss).

I ate and enjoyed every bit of it. I really tried to be moderate in my sweet intake. I'm not glowing with great results, but I didn't go overboard either. I feel like I can pick it back up this week and that's what healthy lifestyle is all about to me.

SOOO, great for me...I had a dumpy week as far as working out and eating lots o' treats (my husband and I love a good yummy in the evenings which helped thwart the end of the week), but I tried really hard to be moderate and at least right now at this moment I'm not crying for feeling guilty, or sick to my stomach from mindless eating.

GO Fourth Week, I promise to post my pic tomorrow.

Good for you for throwing yourself out there to blogland. My battle of the bulge is failing pretty miserably too. What's your workout schedule like? Maybe we can coordinate a bit. A workout partner always keeps me more motivated. :)
