Hi all,
I just seem to have fallen off the wagon. With anniversary, B'day, V day etc straight, it was difficult to say no to so many things. It didnt help that I was fighting stress & depression (which makes me eat), I've put on weight instead of losing it. I never seem to find the time to exercise (which is no excuse), but with work, a baby and also having to take care of school work fir my older daughter, it just gets so exhausting to do anything.
Well, I'm hooping to start afresh from next week. Lets see how it goes. I'm so tempted to take the easy way out and go to a slimming place, but the fear that it would affect me in the long run (may be after I turn 50 or even younger) keeps me away.
Hope you guys are having better luck.
Hey babe,
ReplyDeleteHope you are feeling better. So happy to see you get back on the wagon. I can understand how tough it must be. It is very draining when you have to juggle two kids, work, family and home. So I hear you when you say fitting exercise into your schedule gets pushed back. It happens to me as well.
The only way I deal with it is to selfishly put myself ahead during that 1 hour in my day, where it is only about me and my health. Getting into this mindset was initially difficult because I thought my whole family depended on me (yeah right!), but eventually found out that my family, including my 1.3 year old, started working around and accomodating my workout hour.
Try and find something/some idea that really helps you focus on yourself. It might help when you find yourself slowing down on this journey.
Cheering you on as always,
Meena
