Good morning STACers, I was just over at Midnight's post, and I saw how completely organized and together she is. This is her beginnings again.
She has everything in place, and is 2 weeks in. She has the energy, the plan, the fitday plotting, the exercise lined up...She is beginning, everything is happening.
We have all be in that BEGINING MODE, and for some it's a honeymoon. I know it was for me. Then it all of a sudden becomes a bit harder the joy is gone, the excitement mellows out some, and then one day the exercise gets hard, where as it wasn't before...boredom with things sets in, and tries to start taking over!
That's when we have to sustain, HOLD IT TOGETHER, regardless of how it feels because frankly it doesn't feel great at that moment...I can remember hitting that wall in november. I had been sustaining, and then all of a sudden I didn't want to "do this" any more. But I had been waiting for that day! I knew it would come, and call out to me, reminding me of all my favorite easier to fix and grab on the run foods...I knew that voice would say that the water was too much trouble and the exercise costs too much expenditure and could be put off til later!!!
I left my beginnings at that season and have sustained my weight loss and continue to loose. I am very comfortable with my routines now, after all this is in it's 6th month...
Soon, I will reach my goals and a new level of sustaining will come upon me.
In the beginning we establish and then we find our way into sustaining what we have established, and that's a whole new maturing level of control. I have wanted to mature to this place, and still be activly on Atkins. I want to be here thick or thin, in good times and hard challenging times. If I can sustain my way of life, I will have energy and strength to cope with my life! I am finding that to be true at this moment in time for me.
