Okay, I'm back. I needed a diet break. I started again today. I'll start food journalling again tomorrow. BUT I'M NOT WEIGHING MYSELF UNTIL THE END OF THE WEEK! Just so you all know.
I have actually been more active...surprisingly. I ordered the part for my treadmill, so that will be good to get working again. And I've been enjoying all the fall weather with some really long walks. - Those walks are also helping on my personl journey and trying to figure out why I do the things I do.
I still am not "happy". But that is simply because I don't feel close to the answers yet. I DO know, after about two weeks of not following the plan at all and eating everything that I want, that I'm less happy than I was when I was eating right. That is what has driven me back to eating right again.
In the last couple weeks I have felt completely out of control and very "unhealthy". My whole body feels out of wack. I know that I at least of SOME control over that. And so, I'm back. Beyond that, I'm not sure I know much more. Perhaps I just know that this is what I need to do...maybe that's enough for now.
I'm going to stick to 20 carbs a day for the next two weeks - sort of Induction...BUT, I'm going to eat the things that make it easy for me to stick to 20 carbs - my low-carb tortillas and a few low carb treats occassionally. And I'm not going to feel bad about them. I just want my body to feel good again.
So, did ya'all miss me? Thanks for the nice messages from many of you in my inbox. And thanks, BA, for harrassing me RELENTLESSLY!!! And...for giving me some options and not telling me "you can do this!" too much!! :)
