Day 47

Wow, it’s absolutely amazing how much more of a clear mind I have after working out. I think if anyone needs to make a difficult decision, they should work out before. Today I was feeling lethargic, angry, and bitter. I committed to going to the gym but at the last hour I was going to cancel on my gym partner. I was going to fall back on the excuse, that I was feeling a little sick, which I am but I knew I could get through a work out. Luckily, I have a very vocal friend and partner who would have called me a lazy slob over and over again. So I ended up going and having a really great workout.

My eating has been off this week. I've only tracked Friday, Saturday, and Sunday and I was already almost done with my weekly points. The problem with not tracking is you don’t know how you’re really doing. I have a really hard time focusing on different aspects of my life at the same time. This week I have been consumed by work and some hard decisions around that. Today I DID sit in front of the Blessed Sacrament and it felt really good. I enjoy praying for everyone who comes to my mind.

Tomorrow I will track what I eat and I will go to kick boxing. I will also wake up earlier so my morning is not so chaotic.

  1. Beautiful quote. I really love that. I've also had struggles with tracking lately, it hasn't been the first thing on my mind, like it was in the beginning. I need to figure out why. When I do, I'll let you know.

  2. I think the reason why I haven't tracked this week is because I feel over worked so I'm rebelling against everything that I really don't have to do but choose to do. Especially if it requires effort. I also start to rebel against feeling like I'm failing so I just say F it. I'm not giving up though. I will trying over and over again. :)

  3. I love that quote, too!!! Tracking is a giant pain the ass! It's work. And sometimes it's hard work. Like when I'm eating at a restaurant. I hate trying to figure out what they are doing. I start feeling guilty about possibly not assigning something enough points, but then I'm also not wanting to face the reality there's probably a lot of points and I should just not be eating it. That is why sometimes I say fuck it! I just don't want to know. There's too much emotional junk that goes with it. Am I making sense? My brain is tired. Tomorrow is a new day and you will rock it!! xo

  4. I hate tracking too. Like Jenna I feel like I haven't assigned something enough points. If in my WW app it says X could be 4,8 or 13 pts- I'll usually go with the 13 just because I don't know. Listen, your doing great and you're having far more success than me- be proud of what your doing.
