Yes, I weighed in yesterday. I stayed the same (again). This is frustrating. I am not happy about the amount of staying the same that I'm doing. I really want to see more losses, even if they are small. I know I need to get on top of things and boost my exercise. I also have not been eating as much as I was when I first started. I get in to a panic and think I need to quit eating to lose this weight....but in reality I didn't start losing till I started eating more often. I have been happy with the choices in foods that I have been making and the way I think about food is better now than in the past (most of the time). Sometimes I still fall back into the comfort eating, but not nearly as much any more. I also really like walking across the parking lot and don't mind taking the stairs when I go places now. I have more energy most of the time (even though I found out that I anemic this week). I just need to really focus on my intake amount verses my energy output.
Ok, I need to talk about this again.....When I joined the Christmas challenge I really only wanted to put 11 pounds down as my challenge (to make a total loss for the year 35 pounds) but I felt pressure to make it higher because I saw what everyone else posted.... 30, 40 pounds or more I felt like mine was so small. I need to be good to myself and not feel the pressure. If I make the goal of 15 pounds lost it will be a miracle. I am not not going to let that challenge get to me any more....I am going to ignore it and just post my updates as if it was just a check-in during the week. :)
I need to not worry about the out come and whether or not I make the goal....I am not a failure if I don't make that goal.
So, that being said and off my mind....whew......... it has been weighing hard on me......I hope you are all doing well on your Christmas Challenge and I will be checking in still.
I'm thinking of taking a new picture for progress pics now that I have lost 25 pounds.??? not really feeling motivated about it though. I love progress pics of others though and they really motivate me!!
What motivates you? please let me know and if you have progress pics please share (or know of some good ones to look at).
Lets keep our chin up and hang in there.....we can do it!
Today is a new day.....a new hour......a new minute......no better time to start making good choices, you are worth it, everyday , every minute!
