Weight Loss Challenge – Hitting the Wall
Right now, I want to quit my program. I am done, finished, and ready to eat a horse.
It is day 10 of my 30 day weight loss challenge and my mind is hitting a road block. It is saying EAT! Today is day 2 of my cleanse so I have been eating my yummy chocolate and snacks and drinking my cleanse drinks and energy boosters, but my mind is telling me it’s not enough. I feel completely defeated, like it would be easier to go back to my old ways and binge eat. At least if I ate that carton of ice cream or that stale piece of pizza, I would feel better.
But it wouldn’t last. The euphoria of my carb high would wear off and I would still be in my fat jeans, unable to zip them, and crying in the bathroom over my defeat.
Am I stronger than my urge to eat food? How is it that food took hold of my entire life? I find comfort in my cookies and my freedom in my French fries. But I am anything but free. I am a slave to my inhibitions and insecurities. I AM STRONGER! I pushed out three kids dangit! I am stronger than the temptation to destroy an amazing opportunity to change my life for the better. I prayed for nine months for a chance to try this program, certain it was what I needed to reboot my mind, heart, and body and Satan is taking his chance to steal my glory.
The absolute best thing about this program is that it is guilt free. It is all about MY goals and MY drive. Yes, I cheated on cleanse day but I cheated with carrots and raw almonds and apples. Before this program, I would have already eaten sugar cereal, sugar coffee, and probably started in on my kids’ Halloween candy.
I will push through. My friends and family support me and I am anxious and eager to show you my transformation. Cheer me on friends! I need your help to persevere and conquer the food!!
