OK today I completely broke down to my husband! I have just been feeling so bad about myself lately! I am glad that I have started running in 5Ks, and hoping to run in a 10K somtime this year, but I Just don't understand why I can't get my crap together and LOOSE THESE LAST POUNDS.........more importantly the extra inches I have gained back that have replaced muscle I had before!! I know keeping tack of points works.......I did it for years, how I got off track I don't even really know. I loved keeping track of points. I never felt like I was missing a thing. Ok maybe at first, but when you get over those yucky unhealthy things, you really don't even want them as much. Now I am the opposite......it is like I am scared that I will not be able to enjoy anything again unless it is a carrot stick! And I know in my heart that that isn't true at all. But how can I make my heart tell my mind and make it listen!!! I have been through so many times of thinking ok, now I am back, only to fall off again! Number wise my damage may not look so bad, but the way my body has changed is DRASTIC! My clothes just don't fit me right anymore! It is like a bomb went off on my hips, thighs and butt, not to mention the wonderful saddle bags I have aquired! I am sorry I don't mean to sound like a bummer to everyone..........I am just sooo hurt and I guess I am just getting frustrated at myself. BUT I also feel bad because I know I really shouldn't be mad! This is no ones fault but mine! I know what I need to do I just need to do it. I work my butt off everyday working out, then for what to sabotoge my hard work by not watching what I eat1 I guess what makes me mad is that I really don't pig out.......I don't just eat whatever whenever, it is that fact that I eat without thinking about the portions. If I have a salad with a meal it is HUGE!!! Anyway, sorry to all of you for having to listen to this BS! I guess I am just venting........I will not give up, but man it is getting hard. I love to run, and I am hoping that this will bring me out of this slump. All of my life I have felt like I wasn't good enough for ANYTHING, I need to prove to myself that I AM! Anyway, best to all of you!!

Aw, we all go through negative mindsets sometimes and get frustrated with ourselves. I know I do it often enough when I feel like I've fallen off the wagon. But you know it's good to vent, as it lets those emotions out... which can be much better than bottling them up. Now, as for counting points, it's easy to get out the habit, but you can do it again and still enjoy what you eat. With all the exercise you're doing you will probably surprise yourself at how much you can eat... so it won't seem like restricting yourself, like it might be if you weren't exercising. So sending you some hugs and lots of positive thoughts... you can do this, so just keep hanging in there. ;o)
