Today I feel like I failed. For one I ate some biscuits because I've been trying to have only shakes during the day and some salad at night. I was so hungry that I didn't resist the temptation. Many times I eat without thinking, this time I chose and I shouldn't of.
I've realised that my diet has been the root of my problems for a long time. I was always criticised because of my food choices. I would of eaten salad all day every day if I could but it wasn't normally an option. I can't wait for 12WBT to start so I can get my food together or even for my Michelle Bridges cookbook to arrive so I can start. Although at the moment we have numerous guests in our house so there is always food going everywhere.
The other reason I feel I failed is because on our ease into 5km run tonight I got half way through and was busting to go to the toilet. I had to head home but I think it was more of an excuse then an actual need. I definitely needed to go but I think I could of continued without any issues.
I think I need to do my exercise in the morning. As much as I don't like getting up earlier then I have to, my twin babies make it very difficult to structure exercise. If I get up at a set time and put the boys in the pram then I will always get it done. At night they have been fighting to go to bed before 7:30 - 8pm as the sun is shinning bright plus we have guests that entertain them. It's always a decision about getting them to bed first, eating dinner before or after and in the end we don't give it 100%. I need to make the commitment here and now to get my fat butt out of bed and get the exercise done.
I'm definitely feeling better and I can already see my stamina improving with the use of the running app. I can only dream where I will be at by the end of four months.
It isn't failing unless you give up Michelle! You haven't done that. You are still trying, so it is just a set back... and a small one at that. Once you get Mish's book you will understand better. It is a fantastic book and really helps with getting to understand that your mind is the thing that holds us back.
ReplyDeleteBTW- after carrying twins... it is no wonder you needed to stop to go to the loo!
