I am desperately in need of a routine. Preparing for my wedding, I had a daily work schedule, kept everything in order, and made a time for working out. I planned my meals ahead, and seeing the improvement in my eating, and in my appearance was so motivating. In preparation for my wedding, I lost 65 pounds... the weight of a third grader.
Then I got married. I've heard about what happens when you "get comfortable", but eekk!
What happened!? We kicked off our marriage with a honeymoon on a floating buffet, which I am sure didn't help. Finding healthy foods on a cruise ship is not that easy. You need to mentally prepare yourself before boarding, which I guess I did not do. My mentality was more along the lines of "yippie, let's celebrate!".
Now I have been married a mear two and a half months and I am already on my way back up the scale. The hubby and I have been saying for weeks that we need to get back on track, but we don't seem to be following through. I have days when I think "I am going to be good and get back into the routine", but then the fact that I don't have a daily routine to plan my meals around, really works against me. Instead of eating meals, I find myself snacking throughout the day... and not on fruit.
Before I am back where I started I need to get moving. That being said, I am going to register for a 5k and set my alarm for Weight Watchers meetings. So, in addition to my house projects, I will now keep you all in the loop as to my personal couch to 5k and great healthy recipes I come across.
