Guest guest Posted January 6, 2008 Report Share Posted January 6, 2008 Michele, I could have written that post. I, too, got sick before Christmas and slacked off. My treadmill sits unused and I'm surprised my husband hasn't said something about the elephant (treadmill) in the room. I find myself not really eating much on the weekend days but then eating a lot late afternoon/early evening. Not a good habit. And I've had way too many sweets. Am still having way too many sweets... Anyway, I don't know what the solution is but I wanted to let you know you're not alone. --- Michele Hagenlock wrote: > I am currently having a very difficult time and I > knew this time would come. > > I slacked off on exercising right before Christmas > because I got a cold, was busy with work, and > frantically trying to get everything done before we > had to leave for Christmas vacation.

Guest guest Posted January 6, 2008 Report Share Posted January 6, 2008 I swear that getting rid of an old habit is like climbing Mt. Everest while falling back into a habit is like skiing down the same area you just climbed up PLUS all the way back 'down' to the base of the mountain! I too am not 'doing' as well as I feel I should be, but I'm trying to let my awareness of 1) discomfort driving me & 2) rebellion against even IE (at times) seep up into my conscious in hopes that I will re-bound back into a more positively driven IE pattern once again. My jeans are tight again - arrggg!!!! Hang in there Michele, you have inspired me at times and I know you will again too. Take care and keep saying - This too will pass....... ehugs, Katcha > > I am currently having a very difficult time and I knew this time would come. > > I slacked off on exercising right before Christmas because I got a cold, was busy with work, and frantically trying to get everything done before we had to leave for Christmas vacation.

Guest guest Posted January 7, 2008 Report Share Posted January 7, 2008 I think we all are probably in the same boat! Maybe it's partially our rebellion against all the dieting mentatlity we get bombarded with this time of year? Me, I'm working on not questioning but just going with the flow. It seems like the harder I work at IE the more I back slide so I'm working on just being and not questioning the process. --Alana -------------- Original message -------------- I swear that getting rid of an old habit is like climbing Mt.

Guest guest Posted January 7, 2008 Report Share Posted January 7, 2008 , I am glad to hear I am not the only one. I am struggling with this and it is really frustrating now. I have been doing so well about listening to hunger signals but for some reason I just don't care about them any more for some reason.
