First big bump in the road happened before I officially started. I'll admit, I've been following my dieting principals for a couple of weeks while I get my blog up and running. I have lost a few pounds, but this is more of a trial run to get into the habit while I get ready for the big event. I was supposed to start the big event this weekend. And then...
BUMP!
My son got really sick. When you are just trying to survive a sick, not-sleeping infant, you really don't have time for yourself. I think it's only natural and realistic to expect your diet plan to pretty much go out the window when things like this happen.
Although, I must admit the plan didn't just not happen... A large rebellion was staged in my house against anything resembling dieting! There were several meals where I was upset over how sick my baby was and I chose to eat to fill that ache in my heart. I gorged myself...on purpose...in complete rebellion...several times.
Sigh. Oh well, back to the drawing board.
The thing is, a successful diet is not a perfect diet. It's a diet that keeps going after you make your mistakes. It's the diet that loses, but keeps trying to win. It's the diet you don't give up on. It's when you don't give up until you're winning more than you lose.
I am still recovering from a weekend of sickness, but very shortly I will get my weight loss statistics up and officially start.
