Getting back on the horse.....again

Well, here we go again.... Every six weeks or so, I lose all motivation to do this. I don't want to have to eat healthy or exercise; I just want to be done. I want to eat whatever I want without thinking about calories or sugar or salt or anything else. I don't want to have to wake up early to work out or feel guilty when I don't do it. So I fall of the wagon and I fall hard. Think....the bad guy at the end of A Knight's Tale.


About three weeks ago, it happened again. And it was bad. I honestly felt like an addict. I went on a late night binge where I ate with no reason behind it. I wasn't hungry, or craving anything, or bored, or sad, or anything. I just kept eating. And then I went on vacation, followed shortly after by a wedding, both of which, needless to say, made eating well challenging if not impossible. The one upside being that during vacation, I got a lot of inadvertent exercise by swimming and walking on the boardwalk.

So now, I'm trying to get back on the horse. (No pun intended with the video and everything) I'm trying to work out at least twice a week, even if it's for ten minutes. I just need to get up and do it. And I'm trying to eat better. It's been really nice recently because my mom has been cooking, so I don't have to. Not to mention that the food tastes good and is low calorie. But I may try out some recipes myself soon.

So here we go,  Take 1,765,324.
