Checking in…

It’s been a while… I have some bad news. I’m almost definitely back up to 173. I don’t know how I keep yo-yoing so much! Every time I have a victory (like getting under 170) it’s followed by another roadblock.  Actually, that’s a lie about not knowing why I’ve been yo-yoing. I haven’t been working out, I’ve been overworked, and my eating hasn’t been the best (although I have been trying).  I need to get re-focused. I feel fat and jiggly all over.  I have also missed my last 2 meetings because I’ve been out of town and believe it or not, there are no other meetings that I can make it to with my schedule the way it’s been lately.  BUT, I am going to face the music on Saturday morning, and I’m sure it’s going to be UGLY.  I actually got on my scale this week and was up to 176. YIKES!! How is it possible for me to gain 6 lbs in a week?!

I need a plan. I need to get re-focused.

I need to remember the reasons why I’m doing this. Let’s review:

1) I am 25. I’m too young to feel bad about my appearance. These are supposed to be the best years of my life!!

2) I have a great life. I have a great career, a great family and a great boyfriend who loves me no matter what I look like.  The only thing that’s holding me back is how I feel about myself.

3) I want to be able to fit into my old clothes and purge my current wardrobe and buy cute new clothes to fit my cute new body!

4) I feel better when I exercise and eat right- I like how i feel when food isn’t running my life.

5) Diabetes runs in my family. I don’t want it.

6) I want to be able to enjoy a weekend at the cottage and not worry about looking fat in pictures.

and a new one….

7) My mom is taking me to Greece next year, and I want to be able to wear a bikini in Santorini!

It’s time for me to get back into an exercise program, too….Turbo Jam, here I come!

Thanks for stopping by :)
