How do you get over a bad day or week when you've made poor food choices and feel rubbish?
I've yet to meet someone who doesn't have those days and weeks. You start again - that's how you get over it. Find a quiet space - turn off all gadgets - think about what your long term goal is. Improved health or maintenance of good health should be high up there, whatever other goals that you might have with regard to weight loss. Jot down some notes if that helps you to visualise your plan again. Accept that today is a bad day - forgive yourself. Move on.. Take action to resolve it - what can you do to feel better? Go for a walk? Chat with a friend? Don't give in to it. You're worth the investment in time and energy that you're making. Keep going. Don't let a bad day or week de-rail you. Stop and remember why you want to progress and how you're going to do that. This is a lifelong pursuit of good health and it's undoubtedly going to be an interesting one with triumphs and set backs. One of the things that I've learnt is that we are all capable of so much more than we think. Courage isn't always the athlete - it can equally be the person with the wobbly smile who despite personal set backs, picks themselves back up and starts to move forward again with their health. Believe in your ability to get there and keep going.
