Fed Up with Myself

I have finally had enough of myself. I think there comes a time when you just have to stand back and say enough is enough. Do I really need sugar more than I need to like looking at myself in the mirror? I am just not happy with what I see and I have to do something about it. I have been working for over a year and nothing has happened. If anything, I have gone backwards.

It is time to quit making excuses and to be strong. I have to say no. I have to make myself eat right and I have to just start getting real. I thought doing all this exercise was going to help, but it hasn't. I am to the point where I feel like crap 99% of the time. I do not want to go through another summer as a fatty.

So, I have to get serious. I have to stop eating food I know I should not be eating. I have a feeling I will struggle with a little hunger at first, but I think I can make it. It is time to take charge of my body and make it into the body I want to have.

  1. I'm there with you, honey! This food journaling is helping me out tremendously.

    I'm actually kind loosely following SP's recommendations for calories, fat, protein, carbs, etc. I am interested to see how I do this week with the weigh-in after a week of eating healthy (except for yesterday :( )and working out consistently.

    Are you logging your food on SP? I got away from that and I think that's part of my problem. Just a thought...

    Don't beat yourself up too hard though either. It's completely natural to have days that you are going to stumble and fall. You just need to pick yourself up, dust yourself off, and keep on trucking.

    You CAN and you WILL do this, babe! :)

  2. Thanks. I just need to focus. I just wish it was easier. You've said it before - why is it so hard to lose weight when it is so easy to gain weight?
