I was late with everything today. I the chores on my to-do list, but did not exercise. I've got to come up with a routine that I'll stick with. Personal training is working out well, but I'm not going to do that part the fall.

Hmm so I've fallen off the bandwagon somewhat the last few days!
Think it's slightly because of having an emotional time, however I also think this has happened to me before when I've started dieting again - I've been really motivated for the first couple of weeks, then got disheartened as it gets harder to lose the weight.
Previously that's led to the diet failing entirely, however that's not going to happen this time! I'm going to continue with it, and not allow myself to get disheartened by slow progress - any progress is better than none, and if I do make no progress I'll look at my diary carefully to figure out why. I'll also be more patient - sometimes it can look like you've made no progress but actually it's random fluctuation that is hiding progress. This is a diet for life - I need to stop expecting quick results!
Today I will:
- stick to my calories
- go to gym, even if just for a short workout - and i won't eat back the calories
- eat some vegetables!!!!

Hokay I fell off the wagon last week
I only exercised two days, ate over and above what I'd planned, had chocolate etc...so today's a good day to pick up the reins again and start over. Luckily I didn't gain weight last week...so hopefully I can get a good steady loss of a pound or two this week. Back to being accountable!!
So today's goals:- Drink 2L of water today
- Do HIIT exercise
- No chocolate! (it's a binge trigger for me)
Good luck folks with your week! May it go well and may you feel energetic and motivated and happy with your progress 0 -

I ate an entire bag of pretzel crisps yesterday and logged the entire humiliating bag on my food log.0

Just for today I will exercise 30 mins, drink water all day, have a big salad, shush negative self talk, and log everything1

We all have those moments. It's annoying, I know. Don't let it get you down. You logged it, now move on to a new day. This is advice for myself too.

@KetoneKaren I did a similar thing last week, but I didn't log it so you did better than me!
It's really good that you logged it - shows that you're determined to stick to your plan despite the slip up! I'm trying to get better at that.0 -
