Nearly a week back on track

This weekend was not a bad one. Except for saturday evening after I came back from visiting my brother, which became a major disaster. I walked into the supermarket at the station for some healthy food, and walked out with oreos and chocolate brownies. BAD, BAD, BAD Willow! I enjoyed them, though I must say I scoffed them down as if someone was going to take them from me by force.

I have been trying very hard, drinking my water, making sure I have my breakfast, and my lunch, not focusing too much on diner. I have been going out three evenings this week! I had sashimi one evening, and omelet with mushrooms on the other two evenings. At my brother's place I had paella, and in the afternoon some japanese crisps. In all I have been "out" a lot, and have still managed to keep in gear with my healthy eating habits. For now it is what I try and focus on most of all. Trying to get the rythmn back again, not focusing too much on the scale.

I AM going to weightwatchers this week. But may be going tonight, I find the later time of 07:30 PM hard to manage. There is a meeting on monday 06:30 PM which fits into my schedule much more easily. I will miss my coach, but as it is too often I find I just "dont go". When I do go, I decide to stay at the office till 07:00 PM, and as I usually start at 08:00 AM and don't stop working till I leave at 07:00 PM, my work day is just too long!

AND one of the things which really makes me trip up is working too long wth too little attention to myself. As such I AM going to weight watchers tonight, eventhough I dread the outcome. But you never know it may serve as a new incentive!

Good for you. Don't let this bump in the road get you down. It's just a part of life. You are moving past it. You will do well. Don't worry about what the scale says when you do weigh in. It's about your health. That's easier said than done. I struggle with that myself. It's on ongoing battle. It's a battle you can and will win.

It's so good to see you back posting again.

It's always so much easier to post when the weight is coming off and nearly impossible when it goes back on, but to my mind, it is so important to keep the blogging going no matter what. At least once a week it forces us to be accountable - at least one point where we can't hide behind our excuses and promises to do it next week instead.

It's really great to see you blogging again :)

Goed te lezen dat je weer op spoor zit. En geen enkele baas is waard dat je je gezondheid ervoor in de waagschaal stelt!

Yes! Go to your meeting!!! Do this thing for yourself. Even if it means a different one. Making time for yourself is important. It makes taking care of yourself much easier too.

I hope the meeting sticks some spurs in you!

It's so good to have you back Willow. I have truly misses you. I am glad that you are climbing out of the abyss and I am confident with your determination you will be back on track in no time.

It is very hard to face the scales in the best of times and painful when we know that we've had a gain. You need to know where you are in order to move forward though so take courage.

Time for self-care and support from other is so important.
