off the wagon...

..for these last 10 day session. Really made a fool of myself. Might have lost a pound around the 15th but instead of consolidating that loss, started eating like crazy. Each evening after binging on crackers, cheese, bread,chocolate, decide , OK, that happened, let it go, move on, control yourself and than repeat the same behaviour the next day. Should have lost 5 pounds by tomorrow- doubt it.

And almost no exercise in the last few days. Forgot that I was paying a dollar for each 45 min workout session, and am supposed to do 250 sessions this year. Forgot that to lose any weight , I have to exercise for atleast 45 min a day and move another 30 min. Was talking to a friend who said that exercise to her now is as essential as food. She goes to the gym for 90 min 2 weekdays and both days of the weekend. There is a small group of people who meet at the same time so its a built in social circle. To me, even after exercising for the last one year , regularly, I have to remind myself to do it, its as essential to me as, what?..nothing.

I think the cold , wet, grayness of this season is getting to me. I am going to put on some music, change into my workout clothes and get on the elliptical, right now, as in now.
