Friday was going very well until I arrived at my friends farewell party at about 8:30pm. 3 hours later I left . . . and had consumed a bottle of wine . . . and then had chinese takeaway on the way home. LOL.
Unfortunately today hasn't been much better. Had a few too many carbs and now there is the possibility that I am going out tonight which means I will be drinking. I haven't been out clubbing for months so I think I deserve this treat. I do!
Since my slip up on Thursday it has been extremely hard to get back on track properly. Although I would normally be disappointed - I'm not. I still have until the end of this month to achieve my goals and I am very confident that I AM going to reach them.
I am going to do some proper planning tomorrow as I know that this is the trick to success. I will post my plan in tomorrow's post.
I promise that I am going to pull my head in and remind myself why I am doing this challenge. Not that I am making excuses - but this month was probably not the best month to have taken on this challenge - therefore I am going to have to make some modifications to it and put my own little spin on it.
Don't get me wrong - I have done this program before for 18 days straight very strictly without any cheating or slip-ups and can definitely boast about the benefit of eliminating certain foods and poisons from your diet - but it takes more than will-power to change habits that are instilled within.
I have a few events coming up this month so I am going to take them into account when I do my plan (which I really should have done from Day 1 - bad Marcus!).
My admiration goes out to all those parents which have decided to take on this challenge. I can only image how much of a struggle it must be to be going through a major diet change and also keeping up with your parenting duties. I only have myself to look after and there are times where I struggle to even do that! So hats off to all the parents out there.
Thanks for all your messages about my toe. I can say that today it is actually feeling much better (although it still looks like a mess) and I will be resuming my exercise regime from Monday.
Happy Pride everyone!
