"You can have the results you say you want, or you can have all the reasons in the world why you can’t have them. But you can’t have both. Reasons or results. You get to choose."

Week 1 Day 2 - Honesty and accountability

I wasn't going to blog.  I am ashamed.


Then I thought about honesty and accountability.


I lost it completely today.


Day 2 of my 8 weeks.


No excuses.  I was tempted and resisted...  and then gave in and ate later on.  I have not eaten massive amounts.  But I have eaten without counting points or wanting to stick to my points.


I don't know what is wrong with me that I can go from 150% motivated to zero in minutes.


I apologise to myself.  Making and breaking commitments is not something I would ever do to anyone else.  But I do it to myself a lot.

Isn't that funny - no - insightful is a better word.
We wouldn't treat our friends like this.
Yet here we are!
As I read other people's blogs, I know you are not alone.
For me, I was blaming myself - things like motivation, will-power, etc......when all the time, it was just insulin swings!
Maybe one of the ways a blog is helpful is that it can show us what works doesn't. And what needs to be thrown out with yesterday's news!

Dear Fiona,
I think the "bad" days are all part of our journey, and we will ALWAYS have them. Hopefully, just not as frequesntly as we used to.

Remember, PERSISTANCE not perfection is the key to our success.

Get up, brush yourself off, and continue along the road to success.

It couldn't possibly be us!!! :)

We must, we must, we must get back on track!!!
And we will!!!!
