Siegels's Notizen, 18 Mai 23

Don't beat yourself up, I did that Monday. It happens, just pick yourself up, dust yourself off, and step back on the path. Have a good day Siegels. 

Okay, so let’s fix it. Can you shave off a bunch of calories from a meal today and get in a great workout? How about a long walk at lunchtime or after dinner? 

Today is a new day!! 😁 

me 2 ... my lunch started with 3 burgers 2 ice creams and a bag of chips 😱 its all good though today's a new day  

Ok so my goodness this is the most difficult thing I've ever had to do....how can food have such A HUGE control of you brain. I've come to the conclusion that this cannot be done without prayer. I am 218 pounds as an adult. As a kid and young adult I never had a weight problem. So here I go today I am officially going to really try to control my eating habits in Jesus Christ name because This is not easy. 

Don't be angry at yourself we are all human. Just forgive yourself and move on.🌞 

Me toooo New day today 

so did i...but binged over 2 days🥺 we can do this! 

Sometimes our bodies need a reset! You can get back on track now.  

Listen man, this is why cheat days exist. Allow yourself this cheat day once in a while (could be once a week, once every other week, or once a month) and you'd be surprised at how it actually keeps you from relapsing into unhealthy habits. Think of it like a reward for all your hard work! Just keep going at it like you have been, .2 pounds really isn't a big gain compared to all your progress so far and it's not gonna severely set you back. Good luck on your journey and be gentle with yourself! 

Me too! I was angry when I got in scale! We both know what we need to do ..👍 

It's not "what you do once in a while" that matters. It's the "what you do day in and day out" that really counts! Leave yesterday behind!  

I did the same. It was my birthday. I was a total glutton!  

You must be angry with yourself. You showed you have no consistency. You have no limits. You showed that there is no difference between a kid who wants icecream and you. You showed that you only care about today, not your long term health goals. 

We can do this!! 

Hey it is ok! I have at least one or two cheat meals a week but the rest of the time I am counting my macro's and putting on my workouts. Don't beat yourself up but just don't have another cheat meal for a week!  

Ignore the negative nancy up in this thread btw, their "advice" will only serve to drown you in the deep, dark pits of depression. Which, fun fact, will *actually* pile weight on you (cortisol, the stress hormone, had that nasty effect on people). 

We all have those slips. Just start again. Don’t be too hard on yourself. You’ve got this. 

Part of the life plan is to accept and adjust to these days 

For all those, who are commenting on me: 1. I am not a she, I am a ‘he’. 2. You guys Think it is okay to compromise on objectives. It is fine to be undesciplined. You are free to think that way. It is your choice, but not mine. 3. When someone does a mistake and realizes it, I am not the one who will say ‘It is okay’ because that enables mistake repetition. You are free to think what you want. You are free to repeat the mistakes. I do not encourage it. 4. My comment only agrees with OP. I endorsed him that yes he has truly identified the spot for improvement in himself. And I endorsed his calculation about himself.
