View KLPEARSO's food & exercise for this day
Hey Everyone,
Another disappointment. Gained 5 lbs over superbowl weekend. Dag Naggit! Sometimes I feel why bother!? Other times, I feel so good about doing what I'm doing. Does anyone else struggle with this emotional up and down?
I want to do this, but feel that sometimes I sabatosh my own efforts, not knowing what I'm doing to myself until it's too late! UGH! 
I will start again tonight, as soon as I get home (for the 1,000th time). But as long as I keep trying sooner or later it's got to click that I can do this and actually do it. I just need to start putting myself a bigger priority than anything else. I've always put my house, my husband, my kids and even my dog above myself and my goals/dreams. I know I can do this, I think part of the problem, is I don't care enough about myself to do this. I've been doing a lot a soul searching lately about myself. I've come to the conclusion that I do like myself, I even think I'm pretty when I take the time to take care of myself. So now I just need to take the next step and actually exercise and eat right every day. I think I hate to exercise becuase I hate to sweat. Then I have to take a shower, etc. It gets to be a little bit overwhemling with the amount of time it takes to do all of this. But I have no excuses, other than what I chose to use (LOL). So it's my own fault
! I'm bound to get this right soon or later, although I hope it's sooner than later!
Until we met again my friends.........

Karen, before I started my current trek through dietville I was the same way. ( although I don't mind the exercise, I don't like the locker room and going to a gym! If you read my blog, you'll know my situation concerning exercise) It took me several years to get my mind into the ready mode to diet. Until then I had a lot of your kind of days. The key is I never gave up because one day it all clicked and I got it. So never give up trying.
:hi:
I offer you one hopeful help, think about your obstacles that are hindering your abilities to diet successfully. Some of these are covered in the CK University first week class which I'm going through slowly myself. I saw my own struggles as they talk about obstacles and starting a diet.
The second advise I would give is try to make sure there are no tempting foods in your house while you are dieting. Clean out the pantry. Ask hubby's help and corporation here since he lives there too. I can not diet if there is food I'm not suppose to eat in the house. My hubby is the same way.
Third: log everything even if you're on a binge. This will help control your eating and let you know what you are eating. This is the beauty of the ck planner. I didn't do this myself when I first joined thinking I didn't need to. DUMB. I soon learned that this was the key to loosing weight and controlling my calories. It's becoming addicting now to log in my food. I can't wait to figure things out every day. I even like coming up with my own recipes and having the computer break down the cals. I hope that I helped. I have been in your shoes. So don't give up. Keep on trying till some day it clicks.
