As sad as it is to admit....I fell off the bandwagon. Yeah it happened.....for 3 days! 3 days!
Day one started alright, I woke up early, went for a jog and things started out great.
Then the beer happened, and lots of it. We went to what is simliar to a small town mardi gras festival complete with chili and beer....did I mention lots of beer? The rest is a blur of shots and beer and some bar foods to top it off....and that was day one.
Day two I could barely get out of bed, my body is not use to that kind of drinking anymore. But to help with the hangover I went to a family bbq that I fully enjoyed myself at. Then work, ate healthy there at least.
Day three, bad food at a new restaurant with my family....and regret right after. blah
So...today, I HAD to get back on the bandwagon. Oh I didn't want to....trust me I was talking myself out of it, and as convincing as I was, there was something that I had to keep remembering....this was a set back. Set backs will happen, not something I'm proud of. But it happened and instead of spiraling back to how things were I need to keep looking at the bigger picture and go back to the healthier changes I had made. So I drug my lazy butt to the gym, did some cardio and strength training and felt better.
3 days of bad decisions does not mean I go back to being miserable and gaining back all the good I've done. I might gain something....I'm prepared for it, my weigh day is tomorrow. But it doesn't mean this is over...not even close. 3 days out of a couple months is definitely better that how I lived before.
This is a life change...not a temporary fix! Learn and move on
