Love that Lent
I did great today, but then it’s a day of fast for me (Ash Wednesday) so that made it easy. But I’m plugging along and plan to have a great day tomorrow. Restarting with small goals. Like right now I’m mostly just focused on eating between 1200 and 1500 calories. When I can get back to doing that consistantly for at least a couple of weeks, then I’ll work on exactly what it is I’m eating… and maybe exercise. I really do want to get back to me. For awhile there, I’m not sure I cared that much. I guess it wasn’t really a priority, which with all the other current stressors in my life, that’s no surprise. But I’m so unhappy with my physical self right now, and that definitely influences other things, so I reseting priorities. Again.

I know what you mean about not being happy with yourself affecting other parts of your life. I also know that I’m so aware of my body right now that I don’t even like my husband hugging me! I also remember when I was lighter how much better all around I felt, shopping was fun, I loved to be loved on and life was good. I can’t wait to get back to that life….I’m doing just what you’re doing too Anna, with picking one thing at a time to focus on. I know I’d try to diet and exercise all at the same time and then feel like a total failure if I didn’t do both…hang in there by this summer we’ll both be ready for bathing suit season
