So, this has been a ‘heavy’ week for me but I’ve made it through. I gained 5lbs this week. This was a hard and stressful week for me and I am definitely an emotional eater. Most days, I am able to distract myself but there was a couple of days this week where I just ate what I wanted to eat; consequences be damned. I was regretting it after my weigh-in but my coach told me that sometimes you have gotta take some time off. I was feeling bored with the diet and wanted something with cheese. I’m back on the program and feeling back in control. I have a goal to reach by my birthday and I will get there. Not to mention, I’ve found my bathing suit for next summer so I have to work hard to get it right and get it tight.
