Need a fix

I was doing very well with my diet and was hitting the gym pretty hard the last week or so but I fell so far off the wagon I can't even see the wheels last night at our Pre-Thanksgiving dinner party. Granted I didn't eat a ton but I did eat a ton of carbs. Not good.

I realized last week during my measurements that a few of my measurements have not changed in two months. NONE of them have changed in this past month even with a 2 l b weight loss and 1% body fat loss. I realize some of this is my fault with the diet issues and some is due to the fact that my body is retaliating from losing so much.

Yesterday while at the gym, I decided I'm going to start working out twice a day again to kick start my second wave of big weight loss. I tried yoga and I realize I don't really like it so instead I'm going to start going for walks in the morning. I figure getting into the habit of getting up early and exercising a little before work will be a good way to start running before work when I feel ready to start my running training again.

I've been so lacks about starting this Phase 2 thing. Still. And now i'm realizing more than ever how important it is to step it up. Going to the gym for 90-120 minutes is not enough anymore. I need to be doing more somehow.

Walk/run before work, walk during lunch hour, gym after work. Hopefully this'll help.
