So I essentially took two months off. I did not go to the gym regularly and I did not eat very well either. I used to take breaks from eating well, but I would continue going to the gym and I was ok. I now know that I can't do that.
I love the gym and it makes me sad that I stopped going, because now my muscles are all out of whack. I feel so worthless doing weights now, because I am nowhere near able to do what I used to do. It was so bad that last well I was almost embarrassed to lift at all.
My clothes aren't fitting right and I am so stubborn that I don't want to buy new ones. At least my skirts from last summer fit (thank god the weather is getting warmer!).
I am slowly getting back on top of things. I am trying to make working out a priority. I am trying to eat better, but sometimes it is just so hard. I started journaling again yesterday. I have gone over points both yesterday and today. I have to start back somehwere though.
The dress that I wore in January, that fit well, BARELY fits now =(
I am sorry this post is such a downer, but in other news I am some really awesome vegetable orzo pasta last night. I sauted some broccoli slaw ( I forze it because there was no way I was going to use it before it went bad), frozen peppers, and mushrooms with a little olive oil. I then added chicken broth and dumped in the orzo and let it cook. I also added some frozen spinach and red pepper flake. Yum! I will definitly be making this one again.

Naw, 2 months is a little hiccup in the big scheme. You're re-stepping-up your efforts, and it'll have the same payoff it did before. Sometimes we all have to take a break. Don't be too hard on yourself! :) Glad to see you posting though...
Sarah-Don't be so hard on yourself, you have had a lot of things going on over the course of the last few months. =) Just think about where you started and where you are now...that's something to be proud of! I agree with Mal...two months in a small hiccup. You'll get back into a normal routine. You meals always sound so yummy!
Hi - - I found your blog via Christys. I did the same thing, I ate better from Sept-Jan and lost 35 pounds and Feb-March eased up and eek..slowly the pounds are creeping back on. As of April 1st I am back on track, although day one was hard. In a week it should be easier. Good luck to you!
