Please, please, let this stick.
I’ve lost a decent amount of weight since the fall, and kept it off for a few months. I feel great.
And I want to keep feeling this way.
But I don’t know how.
I’ve yo-yoed in my weight for years. Not from following fad diets – just from going on and off with binge eating.
I’ll be eating well, with daily indulgences and no restrictions, but being careful with seconds and too much snacking then I just… stop… caring… and start binge eating again. I exercise the same amount, but you can’t run your way out of a poor diet. And the weight comes back.
I can’t pinpoint what makes me stop caring to anything.
It’s so frustrating.
I’m determined for that not to happen this time. I am sick of being Ms. Yo Yo.
I know it’s going to be hard. I think it will come down to getting out of the moment and seeing the big picture – which, of course, is something I am not so good at in most facets of life. But I need to get better about making decisions for the future and not necessarily for the moment. And not making such rash decisions. I’ll get there.
Notes like this in my office are my attempt to remember what’s ahead!
