Confession time. Clean eating has not been going so well the past few days. I told you all how I had an indulgent weekend, but I was ready to bounce back on the wagon. Well, that hasn’t quite happened.
I haven’t been eating copious amounts of cheesecake or anything like that, but the cookies that got passed around at a meeting, the candy that was left on the table….oops.
It’s not that I feel fat per se. I don’t even feel like I’ve started gaining anything back. It’s just a dangerous path to get stuck on.
Also, I just feel “blah”. And I don’t like feeling blah, when I know that I can do something about it.
It’s never too late to clean it up again right?? I could really use a bit of motivation/encouragement though! I foresee some quality Pinterest time in the near future…
How do you stay motivated??

I think different people work differently, but what works for me is M-F I am quite strict; I don’t eat any sugar, grains, sweets, anything.. but on the weekends I let myself eat the “forbidden” foods.. pancakes, french toast, whatever. I’ve seen something that said if you really crave something, let yourself have it on the weekend. And if you can wait until the weekend, you realize you don’t really need/want it anymore.
Interesting perspective.
