So it has
been 2 weeks since I have posted anything on my blog! I am/have been in a big
ole funk!! It started off with the holidays, Thanksgiving, Christmas, and New
years. Then I ended up getting very sick with bronchitis and I STILL have a
cough and sore throat. During the holidays I ate a lot that I shouldn't have
and fell back into old eating habits. When I got sick I couldn't exercise
because I would cough up a lung. So long
story short, I have been eating shit and not moving my body at all. To be
honest the funk didn't really even start until I got sick right at the New Year.
I of course had made all these promises to myself that 2013 is going to be
different and I was going to eat healthy every day, get my water in everyday,
and exercise at least once 6 days a week. When I couldn't start my year the
right way I started getting down on myself and a little depressed to be quite
honest! I know it is only January 16th so I can still make 2013 my
year if I start NOW. I really and honestly don’t know what is wrong with me.
Will I get out of this sad stage before it’s too late? I sure hope so! I am the
only one that can do this for myself and I am the only one to blame if I don’t.
For this
weigh in Wednesday I have gained 5.2 pounds from last week which was also a
gain. I am not proud or happy with myself. I have almost gained back the whole
10 pounds I had lost. I literally cried when I saw the number staring back at
me this morning. This is a cycle with me always gaining and losing the same
pounds and I struggle everyday to break all the bad habits I have had all my
life. When will I ever see the light at the end of the tunnel?
Sorry for
being the Debbie downer today but I have to get this out and off my chest so
that hopefully I can start new and fresh. Thank you for reading and have a
blessed day!

DeleteGirl there is something in the air! I am a mess too... it must be a January funk or something... it's awful! Let's pull ourselves out TODAY and get started for a good week ahead! I'm right here with you!
ReplyDeleteIt is awful, Erin! I don't know what the deal is but it can only go up from here, right?
DeleteI agree with Amanda and Erin.. But we can all just start again =)
ReplyDeleteYes that's the great thing about it! I will start again and not give up like I have so many times before!!
DeleteI know girl...I was totally in the same rut after Christmas! I didnt start back exercising until just this week but you have to start somewhere, right?? You can do this, its a journey, you wont be perfect but you can definetly succede if you put your mind to it!! :) hugs!!!
ReplyDeleteYes must get my mind to it! That is my deal I think... My heart is 100% in it but my head fills with so many doubts, fears and can't's! Thanks Lauryn!
DeleteHang in there! Just take it one day at a time!
ReplyDeleteCheers to a new week!
Thank you Amy! New week, new me!
DeleteI love the honesty in your post. This describes exactly how I have felt so many freaking times. Even now, I too am getting over the holidays and the 11 pounds I gained. I will tell you that I have lost 9 of those pounds in two weeks--meaning I do think some of your weight is superfluous and will drop off when you focus on you again. Lots of positive vibes coming your way (and weigh! I am so punny...), girl!
ReplyDeleteThanks so much Stephanie! The positive thoughts and vibes are much appriciated! What goes up must come down, right? I sure hope so!! Hoping that saying works with weight too! lol
Deleteoh girl, so sorry! but thanks for staying honest --- that's super important. hopefully you'll be 100% healed soon, and can keep going. good luck!!
