HIT THE WALL

Options
I have been down the last few days, physically (head cold) and mentally/emotionally. I have hit a wall, have no motivation to keep going. Not sure why, just feel blah! I ate horribly Saturday - but got back on the road Sunday of healthy eating. I did work out today - treadmill for 1 hour - usually swim 100 laps, but hard to do when I can't breathe to well! So later today, I put a sweatshirt on, haven't worn it in about 13 years (I know, I hold on to things big time)! It didn't fit around my hips.........but tonight, it did! It re-newed my faith in me. I can do this, I will hit walls again, but I will pick myself up and keep moving forward. This is the year of ME! Ok, I feel better, writing this all down really does help! Moving forward with all of my soul!

    We all hit the wall from time to time......need to always look for motivation. The sweatshirt did it for you today. This will be your year to shine.

    Hey, great story!

    Yeah, that wall sucks, especially when you get sick, but pushing through like that to keep going is huge!

    Well done!

    getting up and climbing the walls after hitting them is the key to success. Dont let yourself fall into the quagmire of "i cant"

    Keep at it!!!!

    I'm sure we all have days where we just want to give up. I had "given up" for about 3 months prior to my joining this site and getting serious about weight loss. I had just "accepted" that I was a little overweight and that was that.

    Now that I'm working at it, I feel great. Just think about how great you feel when you do well.....don't give up!

    Yay good for you! This time of the year is hard...we all tend to feel down or have a touch of the "seasonal depression". Also this is the time a lot of people start to throw in the towel on their new years resolutions...keep up the good work and you will see good changes!
