Now This Feels Good

So after two weeks off the game, where I managed to do a lot of damage, I'm happy to say that I'm back "on."

Today I went back to the gym. I started drinking a shitload of water. I tracked my food. I followed a plan. I didn't check my email in bed before my feet stepped onto the cold morning ground. And I'm blogging on this here blog again.

And yes, it feels good.

It's amazing to me how quickly I can ruin a good thing. How easily and completely I can take four weeks of hard work and make one bad food choice after another, and be right back where I started. I know from years and years and years of experience in putting myself down that talking shit about myself only makes it worse. On top of being back where I started, I then trash talk about make myself feel bad in the process. So let's skip all that and just say, I truly hope I'm one step closer to learning how to treat myself and my body better when I'm not playing the Game.

For this next four week round I've decided to follow the Weight Watchers points system. I still have to eat within 2-4 hour time frame, but I figured it'd be good to try and switch things up a bit to help avoid plateus. Although, I'm really good at avoiding plateaus by eating everything I want between games and then losing a lot the first week back. So I really don't need to worry about that too much now do I?

I'm feeling a little under the weather, so I'm calling it quits for the night. But as I stated in the title, it feels really good to be back at this!
