Two days of tracking and my body is responding - who knew right?? Im sure its all water weight but it sure was nice to see! I tracked everything, and went over my cals by about 50. It was probably more than that because I always forget to log things like condiments. My macros were under in protein and over in carbs, but I stayed under my fat goal. Not too shabby though! The best thing about it is that now Im looking forward to logging todays food.

I was looking back at my calendars and I was really sporatic with logging food this year. I could tell when I was "in" and when I was "out" of the habit. Amazing how easy it is for me to be "out".

No gym yesterday. I did Yoga on lunch and my shoulder felt funky so I thought I would give it a break. Today is a Lunch workout with coworkers using a deck of cards. There wasnt anything that looked like it would give me a hard time so Im joining the workout, and then Ill mow tonight instead of feeling guilty that Im not at the gym haha.

Garden update:
My tomatoes are coming in but they are all green right now - CANT WAIT FOR FRESH ONES! I was super excited that my zucchinis finally took (planted late/started from seed and died after transplant) but I noticed squash bug eggs on them so probably no zukes for me this year. My cucumbers are also doing very well.

Went over my cals yesterday, and didnt make my macros but I logged it all and thats a start! I picked up a few things at the store to help start my day better and have some high protein snacks so Im looking forward to those.

Went to the gym last night and it was a great workout. I keep thinking my shoulder is fine and then it feels weird the next day. I have been keeping the weights lower though, and dropping if I need to. I cant tell if Im over doing it though, it feels sore but not painful. Im signed up for the endurance class tonight but I might cancel. Im doing yoga on lunch so hopefully that will help.

It was an OK weekend. No change in weight today from Saturday so thats a win! I walked on Saturday and it was ridiculously humid, so even though it was a cooler night, I was still sweaty.

Yesterday I used the Down Dog app and did half an hour of Yoga on my deck. It was refreshing and I felt like I could mostly keep up with it all. Maybe I dont hate Yoga like I thought, maybe I was just bored with it.

Mental health truth bomb- Ive been feeling down and defeated lately but didnt realize that I was in a depressive spiral. I take a low dose anxiety pill and I havent been taking it regularly. Cant help me if Im not taking it. I forget sometimes because I feel fine and it doesnt seem like a big deal and then -Boom! Also, when I was doing Yoga, I realized I was, well, odorous. It confused me because I was like - I just showered on.... wait. Yeah my mental health affects my physical health in more ways than one. So that was an eye opener. I had already been making sure I took my pills for a few days but it really hit me yesterday how deep in the hole I had fallen.

Todays goals are:
Update planner
Take pills (ope)
Go to the gym
Make a list of priorities for the week

First off, Im sure this loss is water weight but Ill take it!

Second, thanks for all of the kind words on my last journal. I really never expect anyone to comment but its nice to get support. I love seeing what works for other people - even if its something that wont or hasnt worked for me.

I ended up not working out on Thursday. I was already feeling defeated and then my coworker/fitfam/morale booster/cheerleader/friend stopped by and I totally bawled in front of her, and she totally and kindly told me to knock it off. She is such a positive person and really helps me to see the things that are going right instead of everything that is wrong.

Anyway, she talked me into going to the gym on thursday but by the time I got home, I felt so crappy that I napped instead. I didnt feel bad about it either, I guess I needed it. Plus my kid and I stayed up to watch The Umbrella Academy which came out at 2am Friday here. I totally couldnt hang and only got through about 6 episodes but I got to see an amazing sunrise. I was pretty lazy yesterday and slept in then got up and finished it. Although I had a pretty big dinner, I didnt eat much of the day so I think that helped bring my weight down a little. Im going to walk and garden today and hopefully not get eaten alive by mosquitoes!

And there is it. 260. Im so pissed at myself - and yet that didnt stop me from demolishing the bag of Lime Tostitos yesterday. Lots of thoughts going through my head about it - some outrageous, some over-dramatic, some that are actually rational.

Instead of saying things like "UHG I hate myself", Im going to say - OK, heres where I am. Now what?

What do I need to succeed?
Why am I letting go of my goals?
How do I get back to where I was a year ago?
Who can I recruit to be my support team?

So I updated my macro goals a couple of days ago and then went into work meetings for two days. I got to do them from home which was great, but I really just snacked way too much. I didnt log or weigh because I felt crappy (which probably just made me feel crappier). I did Zoom workouts with my coworkers over lunch with a quick amrap on Tuesday, and Yoga on Wednesday. Im planning on yoga over lunch today. The trainer I dont like is filling in again tonight at the gym and I feel stuck - its raining so no outside workouts at home. My goal is to make it to the gym 3x's a week so if I miss tonight, then Ill only have made it once. I hate to miss out on it so I dont know what to do yet. I guess Ill wait and see what the weather looks like after work. Working out isnt my main issue though. Missing the gym isnt what is keeping me from my goals.

I signed up for a nutrition course but I dont know if its exactly what Im looking for, but it might get me in the right direction. I think I will also download an audiobook about emotional eating and see if that helps too.

I cant keep staying stuck. I have to move on. Ok Im still a little dramatic about it. 🤷‍♀️
