Chasing Mondays!

Currently I am listening to "Stop Sabotaging Your Weight Loss" by Jennifer Powter. I have to stop and think how many books have I already read, listened to, bought, and are lining my shelves that relate to weight loss? Too many to count. How many healthy eating influencers do I follow? Again, too many. And yet here I am still in the same shape I have been for the last umpteen years. Well, plus about 50lbs, it's been a rough couple years. Which is an excuse I tell myself, but really it should not be. People deal with what life throws at them ALL THE TIME without gaining a single pound! So why is it that I cannot get it right? 

I don't have answers for that, but I do know that sabotaging has a lot to do with it. Some of that sabotaging I don't even know I am doing. So, here I am, AGAIN, in the same boat of starting over. But starting over today, not Monday, not tomorrow, but today Friday, August 22nd 2025. My inner fat b*tch, we will call her Bertha, is yelling at me to get through the weekend and start Monday because we have plans on Saturday. But we have to stop chasing Mondays. 

Bertha is so strong that I completely forgot I was rebooting and had a not so healthy lunch...half a grilled cheese (which wasn't even that great), Birria which was fine, and french fries which were curly and I am not even a fan of those. Sigh. STFU Bertha. You are doing me no favors. (Reboot 849 starts now.) I am planning to blog my way through this mess of rebooting my body and mind as often as I can. Bertha is strong, and she controls a lot. So, I have to figure out how to change her mindset along with mine because quite frankly I need to get Bertha on my side. 

I also need to journal food. Which I have always hated doing, it feels overly time consuming. But I feel like I need to commit to that as it seems all the people who are successful do this, especially at the beginning. So, I will give it my all. And may or may not post that here.
