Week Seven: Time is Flying

19/02/2024

I cannot believe how fast this year is going. In the last 7 weeks I have lost a total of 6.6 kg, with 1.3kg being lost this week. 

I am not going to say that this has been easy, cause it definitely has not been. 

Watching the scales every day can be so disheartening for me and make me want to give up. I am also struggling with my self image. I do not like looking at myself in the mirror, or my videos that I have been doing as I feel that I am too big. While I know that is the reason that I am on this journey it is just still very hard.. 

I have been trying so hard to keep my spirits up but lately it has been so hard. I keep remembering all the positives that i have in my life, like the support network i have and how i am still on the right track for what i am wanting to achieve. I also remind myself that this will not be an overnight journey, it will take time and effort and it will be worth it. But this is just not helping at the moment. 

Last week I had a few biscuits and some Pea snap crisps not because I wanted them but because they were there. While I did not beat myself up too much about it, I was still aware that I had eaten stuff that was not something I should have. I have also been struggling to keep myself motivated enough to workout at the gym, which has made it really hard to feel good overall. 

Hopefully this next week is a better week.
