A couple weeks ago the DC area was hit with a huge blizzard! I am a person that thrives off of routine so when I couldn't get to the gym I didn't workout as often as I should've. I also have been having far too many cheat meals than I should. Falling off sucks but it happens to everyone. The key is to catch yourself a week or so in the midst of your fall off rather than a month or more.
This is how I get myself back on track after falling off.
Admit that I am struggling.
First, I admit that I am struggling. I often find myself making excuses. I have to tell myself that veggies on my pizza is still a cheat meal, working out everyday is a non-negotiable, nothing works without prayer and reflection.
Make a plan
I make a plan about how I will reset myself. I plan when I will workout and what I will eat.
Start Immediately
I don't care if it's 2am, Im broke, Im tired, or whatever! I start immediately. That means I make it work with whatever I have. Whether it is a home workout or a trip to the market to get a few things, I start and do my best.
Go grocery shopping ASAP
If I have other financial priorities and can't get to the grocery store immediately I make a plan to do so as soon as possible. Filling up my cart and swiping my card for whatever amount of money I spend makes me want to eat it all. This helps me meal prep and avoid eating whatever else is in the fridge or eating out.
