I got so busy the 2 weeks before Christmas just with all the preparation, shopping, wrapping, decorating the house, basketball games, Christmas programs.....it was hard to keep focused on the weight loss. I didn't lose sight of my goal though. I didn't gain any weight those 2 weeks, I did maintain!!
I will tell you what has helped me to get back on track when everything just felt so out of control - I got myself out of bed early Tuesday morning and I walked 4 miles. It felt sooo good too. It helped me to focus on what I was going to eat the rest of the day, no more temptations because I have another 50 pounds to lose!! Then, I got up Wednesday morning and walked another 4 miles, and I tell you what, I am pumped now to continue on my weight loss journey!!!
Today when I weighed in, I have lost 1 pound. This means that I am finally in "onderland" baby!! Now I'm at 199 - and 49 more to go!!! I am motivated now!!
Hang in there! I just think that you have to get back to the healthy eating and exercising immediately. There is no reason to put on any extra weight. You have worked too hard to give it up for food!!
