still having trouble getting momentum

I'm still having trouble getting my momentum back, but this has happened before.  I know eventually, I will go back.  and it will last 3-4 weeks and then something will happen again and off the bandwagon.  I guess its just the cycle.  I dont' know whether to fight it or not.

Anyways, I did workout yesterday.  It was 15 minutes but I did something.  It was a short kick boxing workout.  Kickboxing is good for when i want cardio without hurting my back.  I just cnat do the zumba or dancing cardio any more =(.

In terms of food, yesterday was fine, I think I ate oatmeal for breakfast.  Oh yes, the oatmeal was delicious and will be doing more frequently.  HOWEVER I was hungry 3 hours later (I mean, I last more than 2 it wan'st a carb crash) but for my needs, i need it last a little longer.  What can I pair with it to make it stick? Should I just eat more?

 I had a big piece of chicken parm and pasta for lunch.  Filled me up didn't eat anything after that. 

The day before yesterday, I had a granola bar mid day.  BAD MISTAKE.  I crashed within an hour of eating it.  I now know the distinct feeling of a sugar crash.  don't like it.  That's a big deterrrant. 

One of the things I have been finding is that without the sugar, my energy levels have gone up. I want to keep it that way. 

Last topic.  I msut talk about my emotional health.  Last night, I was stressed.  As a result, I slept terribly last night.  Now, I'm going to be feeling it all day.  I know taht by tomrorow things will be back to normal.  But I wish I could have somehow avoided the bad night sleep.  I wish I hadn't let it get to me.  Now, it doens't bother me, its over.  But tahts' after I worried about it all night.  I read my book to try to think aobut something else and get my sleep hormones going.  but I . think i just had all that adrenaline pumping.  I guess I just have to be ok that that's gonna happen sometimes. 

ok gonna get some more coffee.
