It has been 3 days of attempted restriction ending in some sort of a failure. I don't know what is causing this, but whatever it is, I need to stop and deal with it. When emotions begin to shout out in our behaviors, it is time to stop and listen. Especially since I never perform well when I'm in self-hate mode. It permeates my whole life, and I fall apart--until I can work it out inside. If I don't correct my thought pattern, I spin into depression-mode.
I'm not feeling good about myself, so it's time to evaluate.
SBC --I posted a few days back that I was afraid I wouldn't make my goals. I wouldn't be surprised if that is why I'm struggling; fear of failure, followed by self-sabotaging behaviors. Typical pattern in my life. Paralyzed by perfectionism.
Time to 'get over it'. I'm going to give the challenge my best, even if I do or don't make my goal weight by March 14th. A best effort is still better than none at all, and will still produce positive results.
The end goal is more important than the time it takes to get there.
Note to self: You can do more than you think you can. Keep going. Never give up. Do your best, and let the results do their part.
