I gained four pounds back. Sure that isn't a lot, but it's a gain instead of a loss. One step backward after taking two forward. It's not a big deal, but it's very frustrating.
I know why it happened and I can only blame myself. While 2.0 was sick and not sleeping, I was exhausted. What happens when you're exhausted? You eat and you eat lots of carbs. Bad carbs. Carbs like sugar and ice cream and brownies and pizza. Lots and lots of pizza. I think that was my favorite food last week. Mexican pizza and this smokehouse thing from Walmart that had Canadian bacon and gouda cheese on it...I'm sick to my stomach thinking about it now.
So this week I've started walking again (or trying to anyway) and I'm watching my diet again. That's getting harder to do this week because I don't really want to eat. The only things I want to eat are sweet. Chocolate and cheesecake kinds of sweet that are really bad for me. When I try to eat anything else, I'm sick to my stomach. The best thing I had this week was Super Blueberry Cheesecake ice cream from Whitey's. Talk about satisfying...yum!
This eating pattern can't continue and I know it. I need to back to eating my fruits and veggies and eating chicken instead of sausage and greasy hamburger. I need to get back into my fitness routine and stop making excuses for why I'm not going.
The longer I put it off, the longer it'll take to get my body back and the longer it'll take to get pregnant again someday. So I need to look at my weight gain (darn it all!) as the catalyst for getting my rear end off this couch and go back to walking seriously.
You can do it! You have great motivation.
