Look who's back in No S town!
I never really left, I just took a hiatus from blogging.
When I read my last check in blog, I noticed a troubling pattern. I would commit to a 21 day vanilla S challenge....fail....decide on a modification...fail..do vanilla S..fail....another mod...fail.
I was stuck in a rut of starting and stopping. I was frustrated and disappointed in myself. And my pants were tight!
I decided to take the pressure off and stop making goals. No more recording successes and failures ( I really missed my habitcal). No more weigh ins.
Guess what happened?
I began incorporating all 3 No S rules during the week. Without much of a mental struggle.
When I gave myself permission to throw away the rules, I gravitated toward them.
And of course I lost weight. Today I'm at 132 lbs, the lowest I've been all year.
My new blog will be about imprinting the No S rules into my life. I'm on the right track, I just need to stay consistent about maintaining my habits.
And if I lose a couple more pounds, that's good too.
