Chronicles of a Carb-o-holic

I have been having problems with motivation lately, so I turned to Google and searched “weight loss support blog” and found this site! I used PeerTrainer for a couple months, but it was hard finding people who really logged and supported.. plus, the team I was in was for 20-somethings, and they just made me feel worse about myself when they complained about their size four figures. Lol. So, here I am.. hopefully this works out for me.

I lost about 10 pounds in the past couple months, then the past three weeks, gained it all (plus a couple more) back. I think it started when I got my tattoo, as I couldn’t work out for a couple days while it was healing. I got out of the rhythm, and then I got into a huge fight with my family (which is over now) and had a lot of boy drama (this guy I was really into had a girlfriend he lied about and was really messing with my head), so I turned to emotional eating.. which, working part-time at a conveience store, equalled tons of doughnuts and fried foods.

Now, I’m not so much emotional, as I am “bored” eating, and it has lapsed into my home diet as well. Plus… it just.. tastes good, so I have a really hard time telling myself no or “just one”, because once I have one, I want five more.

I am going to Europe in June, and I really want to be in shape. I have no illusions about getting to a size zero or anything.. I just want to be more toned, and get rid of my belly. (It was really smaller until I started lapsing on my diet) So, right now I just need to get back on track, and stay motivated, and work on my self-control. I only have three months!!

I hope this website helps!
