I read Dawn's anniverary post (Congrats Dawn, you've done amazing!), and realized that I need to get back at this - it's hard for everyone to lose weight, and just because it's hard doesn't mean I shouldn't try.
If you've been looking at my weight chart, you'll notice in the past 6 weeks I've gained 13 pounds. I've gone from my all time low of 245.8 to 258.8.
So I have to work to lose the same 13 pounds again, but I'll do it.
I know that I just need to start tracking what I eat. I think I just need to track what I eat, regardless of what my calories are, I think I just need to recognize that what I'm eating is more than is necessary to sustain my body, and food is fuel, not fun.
I need to focus on this more. I need to make it important to me.
I generally don't do well with rules, but I think I need to cut out donuts and chocolate bars (and all similar substances). I just don't have self control over those right now.
I also need to start working out, and making it a priority...
Revised priorities:
1. Sleep (given I'm super busy with work, and it's critical to avoiding another seizure, it's #1).
2. Eat healthy (while I wanted to make exercise priority #2, I know that in reality, I can eat way more calories in an "off" day, than I would potentially burn off exercising, so it's more important).
3. Exercise (when I start moving, I'll have more energy for everything else)
4. Work (I'm going crazy with work, but my long term health is more important than any one client).
I was thinking that there is a gym at my office, and I should sign up - but I have a gym in my basement (well, pretty much), and I think I just need to start using it!
After dinner tonight, I'm going to work out. I hope you all are working out tonight too!
