Week in Review

I struggle with the decisions to weigh myself or not. I believe that it's not about the scale for me. It's about loving myself and learning to respect myself and my health. However the scale is the measurement we have but I don't want to get all mentally in a funk when that # might not be where I want.
I struggled with Binge eating feelings all weekend as well. Some of it is normal weekend struggles. I think every one has it. Then there was just the feelings I am dealing with of feeling so overwhelmed and not where I want to be in life and some other things right now.
I will say this.. I tracked EVERYTHING... and I didn't do all that bad. However I ate Chinese food for dinner and then snacked on crackers and PB OVER my cal limit later which is just not really a good thing to do the night before weigh in.

That said, the scale showed my naked right out of bed weight (which is how I do it each time) as down a pound...
So I guess yay me. I know I am making small changes and I was able to add some movement in for exercise several days. My body is constantly aching and sore these days so its really a challenge, especially since the more active I am, the more it gets sore!
I DID do Yoga one day which I had set as my goal so YAY..check on that.
I feel good about where I am overall in my quest to get healthy.
I feel a little floatey in the mental state right now so I am trying to really keep my goal of being healthy in mind.
I also, except for fruit have had very little sugar for two weeks. Things with high sugar like pasta sauce ect, I still have had but am taking steps to choose healthier versions for me and my family.
I just wish I had a magic wand that made it all happen in the blink of an eye or a Samantha Style wiggle of the nose. I know I am magical and I CAN make anything happen that I want, but the time it takes is a little frustrating!

I will not give up on me though. I Love and Approve of myself and I deserve a healthy life and a body that doesn't ache all the time and I deserve to feel all cute in my clothes!
I am here, putting one foot in front of the other, moving forward. Choice by Choice, keeping focused on where I want to be.
Happy, with me.
