barely down

This morning was weigh in, and I am only down 2 oz. this week. I feel a little discouraged, but I also have had a reality check. I let myself excuse myself from exercising a few times this last week. I also allowed myself to have some food that I know is off limits. I know that even though I am down a little I am heading in the right direction. This morning while I was doing my Turbo Jams the instructor said something to the effect that this is your workout, you get out of it what you put into it. I feel like I will get to my weight goal, but it is going to be up to me how fast or slow I get there. It is frustrating to work hard all week but slack off a little and how easily that ruins the entire week of work. I have been giving myself Tuesdays kind of off, not exercising, having a diet coke, etc. I decided this morning that I will not be doing that any more. If I am serious about this, and I am, then I have to get it into gear and push.

  1. Good for you, Anna. I think that's good that you can identify what needs to change. It can be so frustrating when the weight isn't coming off or is coming off in tiny, tiny bits. Keep your focus!
    Love,

  2. I'm really glad you took your measurements and that your clothes are feeling looser. Hopefully that will help see you through on days like today when the weight just didn't show! I for one thought for some reason this time would be easier, but I guess it's not true. No matter when we decide to lose weight, it will still require the same work and I'm proud of you for working so hard and staying positive! XOXOX

  3. Anna, if it makes you feel any better, I just got done with a nice big McDonald's meal and some homemade peanut butter no bakes. Tomorrow is a new day! You go girl!
