I need to get my mojo back. The past two weeks have been somewhat of a struggle and I can't seem to get out of this funk. I know what I have to do to lose weight. I've been successful with it when I work at it. I've been reading a lot of weight loss blogs and trying to get inspired by them. It's amazing how great people do when they stick to a plan and follow through. I like reading their ups and downs. It makes me realize that no one is perfect and that we are all a work in progress. At my 25th weigh in this week, the scale showed that I maintained. I should be happy that there wasn't a gain but damn it, I really wanted to reach a 50 pound loss this week. I was going to look back at my food log and then I realized that I sucked at tracking my food this week which is part of the problem. I can think back at what I had but it isn't the same. I think part of it was that I had a lot of "bad" food and I didn't want to track for that. I mean, if it isn't in the log then I didn't eat it, right? That would be a big fat NO. The only person I am fooling is myself with that kind of thinking. But as of yesterday I am back to tracking everything I consume and will be making smart choices this week.
Working out is something that I haven't been doing for the past couple of weeks. I think because I've been losing weight that I don't feel like I should work out. But I feel so much better when I do. It's making the decision to work out that I am struggling with. What a total mind f*ck! Today I added some workout DVD's to my Netflix. Perhaps a change in my workout routine is what I need to motivate me to get off of my booty and get movin'.
Here's hoping for a good week!


You WILL get it back! Look at how far you've come!! You're right, it totally messes with your mind when you do start to see significant results it's easy to get overly confident. That is my BIGGEST problem. I will lose a little weight and then it's like, "oh, I'm that girl with the fast metabolism!" Uhhh, no. That would be wrong. Then I gain the wait back and it's a vicious cycle. VICIOUS!
ReplyDeleteHang in there! You WILL make it to that 50 lb mark this week!!
