Half Assing It
I’m still going strong on my workouts - missing the gym only twice in a 7week period…well 3 times because I didn’t go yesterday since it was May Long weekend and I was camping, but I knew that was going to happen.
During the work week I have been a clean-eating machine - touching nothing but lean meat and complex carbs. I wasn’t "horrible" on the weekends but still having some drinks and squesezing in a cheat meal here and there over the weekend :S
WELL this last week I found myself straying slightly from my clean-eating, not being as tight with it…then came the long weekend camping trip and I totally let it go. I ate smores, a burger, chilli, steak and potatoes with butter, complex carbs (fruits) on their own without protien, coffee with flavoured creamer, Tim Hortons bagel…..WITH CREAM CHEESE! Holy shit, I actually hadn’t reliazed how bad that weekend WAS until I just wrote it all down?!?! Anyway - you should see me! I feel bloated and disgusting, I think my body is in state of shock from all the crap food after eating clean for so long!
So I’m back at the gym in about 15min for my lunch break. I know I have to just jump back onto track and forget my slip-up, I can’t let it discourage me. I am, however dissapointed in myself - what a waste of hard work for some temporary satisfaction

Look at it as 5 steps foward 3 steps back, You havnt blown away ALL your progress. No, no. Youve just slowed yourself down a little. Your alright. Just remember that bloated feeling next time you wanna eat unhealthy. Soon it wont even be an option. Youll avoid that feeling at all costs!! Now back to the gym with you

Hey Sh*t happens. Just get yourself back on track as soon as possible and stay focused.

I literally feel your pain. I cheated last night, and the physical anguish this morning was worse than the mental anguish. My body made me pay for it……..incentive to get back on the clean wagon. Whew!
Ditto with above……..dust off, press on.
