Ladies and gents I need a talking to, be as harsh as you like!!
I’m seriously struggling, I keep trying every week to start again, and last maybe two or three days and just slip back into bad habits – I’m not eating “badly” per se, like not sugar and stuff, but carbs are creeping in, the odd sandwich, the odd potato, the odd bit of pasta or rice. I’ve done this plan properly before, I know it works, but I just can’t get my head back in the game. I’m feeling so unwell with stress at the moment, and headaches all the time, ME is flaring like nobodies business, mental health is not great, and I start getting a whiff of carb flu on top and my body just screams for some release – and I know the carbs don’t help in the long term, but I also know in the short term it does get rid of the headache, it does give me a boost of energy. But I also know once I get past it I do (eventually, it takes months for me) start feeling better. I’m also struggling with motivation to cook, I love cooking but I’m just so so so tired. I’m so sick of working from home. I’m so sick of not teaching face to face. I’m so sick of being stuck in my little study day after day after day, only interacting with people over zoom. But I also know I need to lose the weight, for my health as well as to fit into my dress, but I just cannot get going, every day just turns into “mañana, mañana” and it’s now NOVEMBER already and the year is almost over.
So I need HELP! Send harsh words, kick up the bum, encouragement, motivation, tips, anything you’ve got!!
PS hope everyone else is ok
