Good week but focusing less on losing weight as I’m pretty happy in this range for my body shape and muscle composition. 11 weeks to skin removal surgery #1!

On Monday, I experienced something that hasn’t happened in almost a year: I had a snack binge. Coming off Thanksgiving weekend was an emotional rollercoaster personally - no excuse, just context.

Here’s why I’m grateful for the experience:
1. It reminded me that while I’ve done extraordinarily well, food addiction and emotional overeating is something that I have to manage for life
2. I realized I didn’t TRULY enjoy the food. I wasn’t present, I could taste sweet and salty but wasn’t really savouring the food, just eating it. It’s SO much better when you can actually take pleasure in the experience
3. I didn’t like how I felt, emotionally or physically. I felt so blah and queasy and briefly mad at myself
4. I was so proud to bounce back as fast as it happened. Once I figured out why it happened, I just got up the next morning to head to the pool as normal and eat my normal healthy diet. I didn’t punish myself by over-restricting food or over-exercising to “make up for it” or berate myself for being “weak”. I also put the calories into perspective which physically would have resulted in a max 0.5 lb once the water retention and digestion settled and realized it’s not THAT big a deal in the grand scheme of things.

LESSON: It’s not what happens in one day that will ever derail you long term. One day does not undo the accomplishments of the previous 364 days nor the potential of the next 364. We just move on to the next. To quote my favourite NFL coach, “We’re on to Cincinnati”. Have a great week!
