I had a light bulb moment yesterday.  We had had a bad day, my baby was miserable with a cold coming on and I had left him with my mum while I had a work meeting all afternoon so he was really cranky when I picked him up.
Motivating Mum Kathryn Bans Self-Sabotage To Get Results

By the time we collected Mr 3 from day care I realised I had missed afternoon tea, hadn’t had any water and had a raging headache from the poor bubba screaming in the car while stuck in traffic.
I thought to myself, I deserve drive-thru for dinner.  So I started weighing up the time and effort involved in making dinner at home vs time spent screaming in the car while detouring to the closest golden arches.  In the end I chose to head home, remembering I had some frozen leftovers from earlier in the week.
When I re-counted this story to my husband I said, “I decided to just come home, I weighed myself this morning and I’ve lost 700g this week so I don’t want to undo all that hard work”.  He replied with “But you’ve done so well, you deserve a takeout night”.
It took for him to say it out loud for me to realise that I self-sabotage like this all the time.  It’s as though I eat well and exercise for a little while so that I can justify a day, week, month of unhealthy eating.  And it’s no wonder that I consistently plateau with my weight loss.
So far I have lost over 11kg with The Healthy Mummy, and right now I am so determined to commit to this healthy lifestyle and being self aware is an amazing thing because it puts you back in control.  My goal for the coming weeks is to recognise these thoughts and habits and put things in motion to combat them.
