Ive been lying.. OK it feels lying.. I haven't logged any food really and Ive stayed true to my plan only about 75-80% this last week. The whole back thing left me with limited mobility so I ate what ever one else was having a few times. A couple of corn tortillas with tacos, a brownie and/or a cookie at least once a day all last week, some chips , a dirty nasty hot dog.. Looking back at it, I think I was depressed bc that's so not me to just throw in the towel. I know I talked about managing diet since I couldn't work out but I didn't do it 100%..Im not looking for pity or laying excuses with this post. I just want to get it off my chest bc it feels like a dirty little secret and today is the 1st day I woke up pain free and Im turning over a new leaf and going back to the old week before last me but its made me realize how much my feelings dictate what I eat. When I feel good, I eat right, when Im depressed, I eat crap. I really dont have the control that I did a few months ago. Im worried its also "diet fatigue"
BUT as most of my buddies know, I love a challenge and Im no quit-er SO back on the saddle again. Time to dig in. I know Ill have a gain Monday but so what.. Rome wasnt built in a day !! Living la vida low carb today !!

Pain wears on both mind and body. Lowers your resolve. Don't beat yourself up, but rather pick yourself up! You know you can do this!

Love yourself, girl! It is about diet fatigue at times. You see where you are heading and pulling yourself back - do the best you know you can do!

Duuuude! You've lost a whole person, enjoy yourself for a while. You'll get back on the saddle when it's time.

Your honesty is always heard, appreciated, and relatable. Chin up, Red. This is just a speedbump - you're just bored with inactivity, and as soon as you find an activity to occupy your brain, food will not fill the void.

And now, having confessed your diet sins to the congregation of the Fat Secret Temple, you have been forgiven and are free to move confidently forward on equal footing with your equally flawed and hopefully as humble FS brethren and sistren. Live and eat in peace.

we all do the best we can do so that doesn't make it any different just remember that when you post something you know what is real and what isn't and you can never lie to yourself if 80% is the best you can do be proud of that because the alternative is not doing anything at all be proud of the 80% and if you feel like making a commitment to yourself pledge to do better if not be happy with where you're at it just means you lose weight at a slower pace

Since we're confessing....I killed off a small tub of Ben & Jerry's (by myself) last September. Logged it, then buried the evidence. Didn't feel good about it but still survived, Two steps forward for one back is progress...or in your case 20k steps....you're going to do fine!!!

We have all been there and done that. We all move forward and that is what sharing is about.

The great part about this situation is that you are recognizing it, holding yourself accountable, and then changing the behavior. Good for you! That takes a type of strength that can't be built up in a gym!!! You got this!
