After stopping and starting a few times over the last several weeks, I decided that the only way I could get back on the wagon and stay there was to revisit where it all began. That means Body for Life. I think the New Rules lifting plan and half marathon training for cardio will be better workouts than the BFL program, but the BFL food list and eating method always worked well for me. I just need to commit to making this the way that I eat permanently. It is so easy for one splurge to turn into another and before I know it, all of those pounds lost are back.
Another tactic that has worked in the past is making fewer changes at once. This week, which started Monday, I have been focusing only on food. I'll resume exercise next week.
It's funny how I do feel better even after just a few days of eating more nutritious food and somewhat smaller portions. I want to go back to posting my menu and workout every day. I think that served as a bit of accountability.
