Hey guys, how you all doing? How’s the week’s training going.
I’m starting to notice a trend with our group – we’re AWESOME at training and we’re all pretty happy with how we’re tracking with our exercise – and it’s why we’re winning the comp so far (and will continue to of course). But it’s the eating we’re having a few struggles with.
I had a catchup with Tarryn yesterday and once again, it freaked me right out. Turns out 4 really good days are quickly negated by 3 bad days. While I planned a “day off” on Friday and had a pretty big blow out, it resulted in really lazy behaviour over the weekend – badly thought out meals and no exercise. So my major lesson for last week is 4 great days isn’t enough, I need to get serious about this and not let all my good work go to waste by letting old behaviour creep back in. And realistically I felt fantastic last week and was proud of what I was doing, but after Friday I felt lethargic and grumpy all weekend and have only really started feeling good about this challenge again today… that’s a long mental recovery period.
So this Friday I have another social event planned but instead of downing a bottle of wine on an empty stomach and then trying to backpeddle my way to sobriety by scoffing burger fuel (which at the time I reasoned was a healthy option), I will have first have a healthy meal, then only a few drinks with waters in between. Saturday I’m out of town and at a kids party so will avoid the junk food by taking my own salad and will be a good Aunty and play with the kids instead of standing round with the adults eating junk.
Anyways, that’s enough about me… how are you guys addressing your eating anxieties?
Let’s take this to the next level!!
Helen
