Gut-check time

current weight: 232 (-2.0 from yesterday)

I’m feeling weak today about food. Pancakes are my weakness and I’m wanting them something fierce. Nothing happened to make me want to eat out of comfort, I think I’m just scared b/c it’s going to be hard to win this battle. I so desperately want to be super-healthy, thin and beautiful but I’m unrealistic b/c I want it to happen while I’m eating pancakes, cookies and french fries. I think it’s b/c I’m constantly losing and gaining the same 5-8 pounds and I’m sick of it. Once I get into the lower 220’s it will be exciting for me b/c my lowest adult weight was 223, 4 years ago. But of course I need to make good choices to GET myself into the lower 220’s and beyond.

Today I have been a workout machine. I did my CE workout and Yoga Booty Ballet (YBB). I really enjoyed YBB, I can’t wait to do a few more workouts. This afternoon I went to the gym and did an hour on the elliptical and followed an interval program. It kicked my butt! I don’t know if I can maintain 2 1/2 hours a day over the long haul but for a short period of time it’s good to get things moving.

I’m going to check in on a few of you for inspiration. I can do this, I can do this, I can do this!

Progress toward workout goal: 44/300

    mmmmm I’ve been craving french toast. I think no matter how thin I get I’ll always want food. It’s just a struggle.

    Guess who just went to her local fruit market and picked up a watermelon:). I’ll be posting a pic for you later and you’ll forget all about those pancakes when you see this juicy, sweet thing.

    A workout machine? Sheesh. More like a lunatic. I haven’t done jack all day re: exercise, yet reading about your workout has me ready for a nap. Show off.
