Day 38 - Oh dear!

So the last couple of days have not been good. It all started with a wedding on Saturday afternoon where I fell off the wagon and had a couple, okay maybe more than a couple of glasses of red wine. On the food front I was a good as I could have been. It was not the right setting to whip out a hard boiled egg and an apple for dinner so a small portion of Chicken and non PCP veg (salty and I'm sure lots of oil). Breakfast was no better, and so with a decidedly sore head, I decided to take a break from PCP for Sunday.

Monday I woke up with a stomach bug that has been making the rounds at work. Dying, I was unable to eat or exercise. This carried on until Tuesday afternoon, when after feeling a bit better I decided to try out the new workout. WOW! it was TOUGH! I was feeling very sorry for myself and didn't stick to my egg white dinner, I was just too hungry.

Now I am feeling terrible. I feel guilty, demotivated and irritated with myself. I really was doing so well, and I knew that if I crumbled just once it would be that much harder to get back on track. Yet, I did to anyway. I hate being my own worst enemy and this is why I have failed at every other attempt to get in shape and control what I eat. PISSED OFF!

Right with the confessional rant over, I have decided to get right back on programme and try and be more dedicated than ever to the PCP. Surely I must have some will power? I gave up smoking for God's sake!

  1. hey dont beat yourself up.... this is a process.

    the getting back on the wagon is part of it ..... after 90 days its not over ... just starting... so developing the willpower is part of this.

  2. Yeah, stick with it Sam. We've still got a LONG way to go, and as Patrick says, missing a couple of days isn't going to make any difference to your end result.

    You've been doing great so far and you'll be back in the swing of it in to time!

  3. yeah, totally agreed. patrick is def thinking with a 90-day program in mind, and then some, so 1-2 days off unexpectedly is probably expected.

    almost half way thru and just gotta push thru--you can DO IT!
