I think back over the last week and I know where my downfall was. I overate on some days, wasn't exercising as much, pumped too many weights and had some of the symptoms of my IBS return (that's Irritable Bowel Syndrome for those not up with the term) which showed me that I had not drunk enough water either. So it was a bad week but one I shall put behind me.
On the other hand it also taught me something. It taught me that even though I had lost so much weight up until now, it didn't mean that being human and putting on a little weight was such a big deal. Before I used to let it get to me, even if the scales moved 100g in the wrong direction.
For me however, I just see this as a new challenge and I know that I will overcome it. Maintenance I have learned is knowing when enough is enough. This is why it is called Maintenance because you fluctuate during the period you are maintaining. I look forward to getting on the scales next week and seeing if I have managed to undo the damage. Here's hoping I am successful.
Until next time,
Hey Sonya

I agree - great attitude. Maitenance IS all about learning how much you need to eat and exercise to maintain your new weight.
ReplyDeleteThanks Ladies,
ReplyDeleteI am determined to get there, but if I do put on weight again then I will just adjust my points total down and go from there. I can only try.
