I didn't indulge in the "cheat." I thought about it a few times, but the truth is, I'm not really craving anything. And I'm afraid that if I do indulge in a cheat, that will bring the cravings back again. So... so far, no indulgences.
This past week has been incredibly stressful on several levels, and I've not had time to work out every day. But I'm definitely shifting some of my patterns, because I haven't just dropped the plan because I didn't do it perfectly (which is what would usually happen). I'm still here, still plugging along.
Not updating here as frequently as I was initially because (a) things aren't changing much from day to day so I don't feel like I've got much "new" to report, and (b) time (as in, lack of).
But I'm here, I'm working and sweating and eating well and carrying on.
Congratulations on carrying on, Marissa.
ReplyDeletePCP is very hard and there are weeks when it seems even harder, but there's is always progress in some way or another. I hope next week turns out better.
Glad to see your are still on it, Marissa. I have to agree with you about our photos. They seem to show little progress, but I know that I feel better than I did at the beginning. Stick with it; this is about long-term gains, rather than short-term ones. We are trying to change ingrained habits and you are doing so well.
ReplyDeleteHey Marissa! What about another way to indulge (while you wait for the "real" indulgence)? Like a massage to work out those hard earned kinks?
ReplyDeleteYou're treating your insides with the finest foods and exercises...the changes will be apparent soon. Keep it up!
Hey Marissa,
ReplyDeleteThe blog isn't about enlightening us with insights every post. It's a constant public recomittment. So even if you're just getting on and describing your wallpaper, it is a successful post.
30 days isn't very long. Keep going and you'll feel and see the difference.
Like I always say, this isn't a matter of faith. It's simply physically impossible to eat well and exercise every day and NOT have your body shape up! You would be a scientific marvel!
So keep going!
