It was a picture of me sitting in the movie theater that pushed me over the edge. I knew I was gaining weight again. I knew I needed to get things back on track. That is the thing with going off the rails; you know you are headed for trouble. Looking at that picture I realized I had already passed trouble and was well on my way to disaster.
I have been at this point before. I would head out and hire a nutritionist or a personal trainer, go to curves, Jenny Craig, Weight Watchers, South Beach, Atkins. I have been there and done that over and over. I finally got sick of it all and muddled my way through enough bio chemistry to have a fair idea how the system works. No one seems to have a good idea about it. None the less I do have a good idea about what I need to be eating and how I need to be moving. So why am I not doing it? I have a master’s degree in holistic counseling and got a 4.0 in a class called change and transformation. So really there is no excuse.
I have been drifting through my days working, sleeping (a lot of sleeping), snacking and not really moving much. I know I need to change my routine so last night I sat down and wrote up a schedule for both me and my son. Meal times, work times, exercise times even T.V. time. Every minute from wake up to bed time is accounted for. We will see how it goes.
