The new format is taking me a bit to get used to!

Last week my sister and I started emailing each other our food and exercise for the day. Since then I have found that I have been eating terribly! It seems like when I am keeping track and writing down what I am eating I make horrible food choices, then worry about it, then eat something else crappy! I'm not sure why this is and it really makes no sense to me, but I need to stop focusing on it. I have stressed myself out because I have gained weight (again). I just keep losing and gaining the same 4 pounds! I have squeezed a couple short walks in which were nice, but I'd like to get into a more set exercise routine. I was hoping to do that this week in the evenings, but every night we've had something come up that we've had to do. Tonight is a bday party, tomorrow family coming into town, so hopefully Saturday I'll have a little time to get a workout in. I feel like if I just get started I'd stick with it, but who knows! I know I will feel better if I exercise. I'm struggling with why I want to lose weight. I know I need to eat better and exercise to be more healthy and feel better. If I could get that into my head I think this might be easier, but right now I have in my head "why can't I just accept myself the way I look?" I don't feel like I look terrible. . .sometimes, other times I hate the way I look and feel. Losing weight is not going to make me a better mother, wife, employee, friend, etc, but feeling better would me make better at all these things. Wish I wouldn't have used all my vacation days, I could use a mental health, me time day. Maybe next year, lol.

Wish it was Friday!!

What you say really resonates with me. Hang in there. It's a cliche but one day at a time is the only way to look at it. Otherwise it can be overwhelming. We women are complicated, huh? We are in it together!
