weigh in results:

Last Weeks weight = 373

Todays weight = 373.2

total loss/gain = +0.2

14 week totals:  starting weight = 396.6 - 373.2 = 23.4 pounds…

I am discouraged this morning with the slight gain ive had..I have felt like this week was good overall and i made some good choices,, but some bad as well….I felt like i had more positives than negatives and can`t figure out why the scale doesnt reflect that. Its 0.2 and i will get it off this week….

The good is that ive excercised 4 days this week,,i just finished the walk away the pounds 1mile walk video before logging on here.  I also did 45 sit ups in an attempt to rid myself of my big ole belly!  My excercise is right on track and now i just have to focus on my eating it seems. 

When i was successful in the past of losing the weight,, it took me a while to get both excercise and food on the same page…i know that i can`t do only one of the two ,, that they work together…now its just getting the mindset to get down to business. This time i want it to be the last time forever. 

I had made it as lows as the 340`s and then gained it back plus more.  I know what it took to get there.  I never counted calories,, i just wrote out a food journal on paper and made sure i excercised every day that i could. 

This week i will photocopy my food journal and start writing it out again…i think it helps keep me accountable. 

I also want to be more active……in normal everyday ways if this makes any sense? I want to not spend as much time infront of the t.v and more time doing other things that keep me moving my big ole body. I would love to walk my 10,000 steps per day but it will take some work to get to that level.

I love using my pedometer and maybe i should start keeping track of my steps again for more motivation. 

I want my kids to see an active mother who doesnt grumble whenever she walks across the floor. Really its a chore to do anything at this weight, it really is.  I want to set better examples for my son,, since he is also already overweight for his age. …i feel responsible for this and I want to change myself so that he can unlearn all the wrong he has learnt from me.  I failed him in this way and I have the chance to change things for my baby girl so that she doenst learn to live this unhealthy lifestyle. 

I want my family to be more active in general…the summer is coming and there are far better things to do than sit in front of the t.v.

Thanks for reading along

UPDATE: 34 minute walk to/from the park tonight with the kids!! yeah for me and no junk foood today!!
