Talking with friends I keep hearing how people get on a "diet" do some exercise and lose a few pounds only to put it back on and more with it. I think about this weight loss like when I quit smoking. Knowing the fear of failure and going back is always going to be in the back of my mind I will not let myself fail.
I remember how with cigarettes how each week got a little easier and a little easier to just say no. Having that same mindset about unhealthy eating will keep me on track.
Although being an artist has it's downside as far as a lack of built in exercise it has it's perks too. For the most part I stay fairly stress free and I know this is a big deal when it comes to keeping it off. I do love the exercise and am finding I can do more and more.
I also have finally gotten my sleep cycle straightened out. I was sleeping too much which slows down the metabolism and works against you.
Not a whole lot of weight loss to report last week but now that I know I was hurting myself with my sleeping habits.I am teetering right around 259-257 right now, but I suspect I will pull some good numbers this week.
Again I thank all of you for your continued support and inspiration:)
God Bless!
