Day 116 Getting Right Again

So yesterday is but a memory. I am back to where I need to be, I am on track. I had a good day today, it just took me getting back to my routine. I think that is what happened to me yesterday. I was waaaaay outside my comfort zone and routine was gone. I mean even though weekends are not very structured for me, I usually have something going on that keeps me busy. Not yesterday. In fact, I was left to my own devices just right before the melt down happened. I was watching football, half napping, and had nobody wanting anything from me or any pending tasks. I was inside my own head and that may have been my trigger. I don’t know, but I am now going to try to take measures. I didn’t know until the Saturday that I would be alone, so planning for that time was not employed by me. I am now going to start getting a better idea when I will be left to my own devices and planning activity around that so that I am not left idle and at risk for these incidents any more.
I will say this. My legs were fresh as fresh could be this morning! I walked an extra mile since I didn’t have to take Lauren to school and it was good for the whole three miles. My push up and core workout were more strenuous to me, but in a good way. I started feeling the normal come back as I did my workouts and then got my normal breakfast and snacks in this morning. I wonder, am I OCD maybe?
I was thinking on Friday that I would set my next goal at getting to 228. Not sure exactly why that number but I came up with it. I for some reason kept seeing the number 226 this morning when I was walking, so I wonder if that will be it? That would be 71 pounds and that would be awesome!!

  1. Great job of getting back on track, Shane! I love how you envision your weigh-in number, and usually you're very close. Keep it up, buddy!

  2. Your mindset is definitely where it needs to be for success! Congrats on getting back to where you want to be. I think you hit it on the head when you said that the lack of structure on the weekends is what does it. My Mon-Fri is very routine, very scheduled. Then the weekend hits and there are no set meal times and nothing to do but relax. Maybe I need some weekend planning myself. Thanks for the suggestion. Have a great week!
