I don't do well when my free days are on weekends. If I have a free day Sat. then I want one Sunday too. Next week I'm going to try having my "free day" on a weekday. If I even want a free day.
This weekend was really emotionally charged with lots of stuff going on and I ate lots of candy to drown my emotions. But the thing is that the candy wasn't even that good!!!!!!!!! Candy is not my favorite and if I'm going to eat bad that's not how I would like to do it, but that's what I had around so I ate it. And it made me feel sick to my stomach.
Lesson learned: Don't eat it if you don't want it, Amber! It will only make you feel yucky and all your hard work the week before is down the drain.
I'm finally seeing some results in losing weight and having motivation again and I'm not sure that free days are worth it. I have to work extra hard in the week to make up for the weekend. Just think- if I didn't have bad weekends and still worked that hard during the week, I could be so much healthier and lose so much more weight!

I lost 2 lbs this week! And that's without any working out because I've been sick!
ReplyDeleteAbout free days...I've never really done the free day thing. Honestly...if I'm doing really good on any given day and I see a fun size candy bar laying around that I REALLY want I just reward myself and let myself eat ONE. I think if you allow yourself one LITTLE treat every day then you don't really need a free day...when you go to that party with tons of food you stick to your diet the best you can and let yourself have one small brownie...if you call it a free day you go crazy and regret it later because your body isn't used to eating that much crappy food. Thanks for helping me stay motivated Amber!
