The Honeymoon Is Over

The honeymoon is over and no I'm not referring to my husband. The newness of trying to loss weight is gone and it is becoming more difficult to fight my cravings. I'm still doing fine, I haven't fallen off the wagon. I'm still keeping track of my calories and exercising.

Part of the problem is I weigh myself everyday and I need to stop because it gets me discouraged. Yesterday I was happy with the scale and today I am not. I will try my hardest to not weigh myself again until Tuesday morning.

Another problem is I'm wanting to eat things that are not healthy and there is no way they would satisfy my hunger if I stayed within my calories while eating them. I had a ice cream bar today and although it tasted yummy I should have had something more filling for the calories because I'm starving right now and I'm out of calories for the day.

I planned on exercising 45 minutes today because I taught I needed to up my game. So around 5pm I started my walking video and 8 minutes in we had an unexpected visitor (my husbands uncle whom I had never met). So that cut 7 minutes off right there. Although I felt rude, after visiting awhile, I went down stairs to exercise. I went ahead and exercised when he was here because I knew if I waited any longer I wouldn't get my workout in and I'm already starting to have issues with staying motivated. I planned on doing 20 minutes but by 8 minutes my legs hurt really bad so I pushed and made it to 12 minutes. Then I got on the bike and did 5 minutes with my legs burning the whole time. So I only worked out for 25 minutes today. I'm not sure why all of the sudden my legs hurt so bad. Maybe it was because I did the walking video first and that is the first time I tried to do both in the same day. Hopefully next time I get on the treadmill my legs won't hurt as bad.

Even though the honeymoon is over I'm going to keep going. I'm not giving up! I will not go back!
