Today went well. I've been off for such a long time that I forogt that I need to eat every 2-3 hours. Sometimes I would get muchies in between meals. But, I did okay overall. When I think about it, taking such a long vacation was really dumb of me. Well, maybe it wasn't the vacation that was dumb, but how I handled it. I wanted to relax and not worry about counting like usual. But, it's really not that hard to do, I just got lazy. Here's an analogy of how I feel from when I started to now: I started this program off in a jogging stance, not knowing where I was really going, but paying attention and excited. Then after being around a couple times, I began to notice familar things so I felt the urge to speed up. I got to the point where I was running through this program and knew it like the back of my hand. I knew the ups and downs and all the sharp turns. Then all of a sudden, I chose to come to a stop. Relaxed a bit too long. When I started back up, I felt a lil lost...things aren't as familiar as they once were two weeks ago. All because I thought I could do it without really "doing it". So, if that made any sense to you to you (haha), I suggest to not deprive yourself of a well deserved vacation, but to not forget about GHF. Embed it into your head even more when you're on vacation. We've come so far and work hard just to let it go on vacation, too. And always make sure to get a decent amount of exercise in. To me, I think that's more important than counting calories at times. It's weird, I feel like I'm starting over again. Oh well...it's all good. I can only learn from it! And I have. Now I know to better plan and think ahead. Anyway, today wasn't really HARD, it just wasn't as natural. So, all in all, I had a learning experience today. Didn't do as well as I could have, tomorrow will be better. I'll bet money on it. ;) We should totally make a money pit to see who loses the most body fat...Anyway, back to my day...
