One thing that I have struggled with the most is emotional eating. I can be doing so well, and if something or someone gets under my skin all things go back to the way they were. I have to learn how to control that part of my mind that tells me that I need to eat when I'm upset. I also need to control what I let affect me. Opinions of others and their idea of me shouldn't matter. I haven't done any workouts for the past 3 weeks! Its so crazy for me to say that because it doesn't seem like its been that long.
I cant wait to start working out again. I need to figure out meal plans and I need to set a schedule so I can reach my goal. I'm giving BBG a little break right now, and I've decided that I want to try jump roping for the next month. I also want to save for a Capsule wardrobe. I don't really have much of a wardrobe, which limits me tremendously when a special event comes around or when it comes time to go to church on Sunday.
My weight has hindered me completely in that aspect of my life. Church and fellowship are important to me. When I started to gain weight nothing would fit and I was left with nothing to wear on Sundays.I would panic and get anxiety, I would also criticize myself all over again and pick at everything that was wrong with me. I know it shouldn't matter what I wear but I literally had NOTHING, the only item of clothing that would fit me were sweat pants. I'm in the phase now where I don't really want to spend money on clothes I know wont fit me three or four months down the road, but I still have all my old raggedy clothing. I'm making it work, but I cannot wait to get to my goal weight. Writing this is making me excited all over again. I just have to get up and do it. The only person holding me back is myself.
Things to look forward to:
1. Starting a new workout routine.
2. Setting up a meal plan.
3. Saving for a Capsule wardrobe.
Thank you so much for reading! Have a Blessed day/night!
