I apologize for not posting yesterday. Completely forgot. You know, life has a way of just moving on if you're not intentional about it. So today, I am being intentional and making an entry. :)
First off, Happy Easter to you all!
There was a key word that I was supposed to follow today. Any guesses? (waits...) The word is... moderation. I may have talked about this before, but today was my turn to put it into practice. And I failed miserably. I pretty much re-enacted the Hindenburg. But hey, go big or go home right? (No, that is never right). I had ham, cake, potatoes, pie, candy, bread, lamb... to name a few. And how did I feel? Like crap! Not only did the food make my stomach feel like it was twice it's usual size (which was probably true) I felt guilty for my lack of restraint. It was as if the rules were lifted and I ate like I would never get to eat a potato again. I felt embarrassed (on the inside) that I couldn't stop myself. Then I had a flash of worry that I hadn't "learned my lesson" so to speak. It was a flashback to the old habits. (Granted I wasn't running 6 miles then but still) So where do I go from here?
I was reminded of a saying tonight... "You only fail if you refuse to try again." So I'm gonna set the alarm, get my butt out of bed, run, and forget about it. You should too.
