Share your failures

Geez. So much failure, so little typing space.

I guess lately my biggest failure is probably the same failure I always fall to. That is, being over 40 now I have a strange sense of entitlement. Somewhere in my head I justify over eating and making bad choices by telling myself I deserve it - that I have been doing 'okay' for so long that I can let things slip. But we ALL know where that slippery slope goes when you start sliding...down....down...down. So I've curtailed the free fall and centered myself again. I make sure I listen carefully to the thoughts in my head and those quite voices that might lead me down the wrong path again. I KNOW I can do better and be better. I just need to make the right choices.

So with that, I am exactly at the same weight I started at this time last year. I have improved flexibility, muscle mass, and my overall look, but not as much as I had, or would like.

I know this is a life long journey though and short term setbacks will happen.

Keep moving forward.

Very well said. Remember that more than anything you deserve to be healthy and happy.

Some things only SOUND like a healthier option. I did the same thing at Moes.

went to a charity brunch, and just kinda said f-it. WAYYY overate, idk even know by how much, because how do you log wedding type food? had 2 pieces of quiche, a raspberry danish, a roll, 2 cups of coffee with real cream, chicken a la king, some other kind of chicken, corned beef hash, penne of some kind, cake, half a sweet potato, heavily buttered/oiled green beans, french toast, and more i cant even remember it all. i gave up logging it.

and, aside from the cake and the quiche, it really wasnt all that good. well, that and the coffee.
