So, I'm trying to keep a mindset that this success isn't going to be overnight. I've already been on a weight loss journey for 7 months. I've lost 50 lbs, but...its slowing. I know that I'm going to have to be strong and persistent to be successful.
Today, I had a great start...but then, as I felt emotionally separated from David, and started feeling more and more out of control about my day, my eating began to get out of control. I have no idea how many calories I consumed this afternoon. Its a blur. I just kept putting more and more in my mouth. The day ended with me eating 3 pieces of chicken bacon ranch pizza, and 3 pizza logs. But, it also ended with me doing 3 miles in 50 minutes, and drinking 33 ounces of water. So, yes, I messed up. But, on the positive side, I did take some corrective measures, and I was able to reflect a bit on what caused me to go out of control.
This is a process...and this is not an easy process. I can only make my next choice a positive one.
