New to the Board - need some motivating!
| Mon, 07-27-2009 - 10:25am |
Greetings! A few years ago, I successfully dropped forty pounds. Since then, I have also successfully put that weight (and then some) back on. D'oh! I have been trying for the past three years to take the weight back off and not only have I not been able to do it, but I've gained weight. This stops NOW! I have joined the YMCA and have got a good workout routine going and, to my surprise, I really enjoy it. This is my first time belonging to a gym and I feel like the Y is a "safe space" and I like zoning out and reading a magazine while getting fit. I feel like I have a good grip on what I should be eating and I've been diligently keeping a food journal for the past week (I started it when I joined the Y). My problem is, I get weak. Who doesn't, right? I get weak and think, "I can have one piece of pizza...." then I eat the whole pizza, or bag of chips, or pint of ice cream. I need help to stay on track and use the tools I have available to be healthy! Can you guys help me out?!?!? Looking forward to everyone's advice and support... (of course, I'll be happy to lend support, as well)
