Going to Lose: My Weightloss Journey!

last night after my mopey post, i decided to threaten myself with “if you dont start tracking your food, exercising more, and losing weight, you have to go to weight watchers, because obviously i cant motivate myself”, and that really motivated me, because i know I can do this on my own and dont need weight watchers or point counting.

so i rearranged my schedule today so that i have enough time to go to the gym before yogalates and do day 2 week 6 of c25k, and then go to yogalates.  i’ve realized I do need to prioritize things and weight loss is pretty much at the top of my list, so eating right, exercising and blogging need to be my top priorities.

so food today:

breakfast: yogurt (80), healthy heart cereal (75), coffee with lf milk (50?ish), and sm nonfat latte (100)- 305

Lunch: salad (120), veggie burger (140), few tator tots (85), ketchup (40)- 385

Snack: nectarine (70) and some chocolate covered almonds (130)-200

Dinne: salad (60), 1 cheese enchilada (200), some rice (70), some grapes (80)-410

total so far: 1300- hopefully done soon

Workout: 45 min jogging, day 2 week 6 of c25k, and then yogalates AND IT FELT SO GOOD AND MADE ME SOOOO HAPPY!!!! yayaya im back!

So, I didnt have an ah-ha moment really, but the threat of weight watchers did me in, and I’m back on track! WOOHOO

i clearly didnt have an ah-ha moment. nothing in my behavior has changed. im not getting enough sleep, im not exhibiting enough/much self control, i dont go to the gym nearly as much or as long as I used to, my schedule/life is so hectic, and I’m not losing any weight. im definitely not binging or gaining (im at like 187 right now), but as much as i REALLY want to fit into my size 12 jeans, I cant get myself to do what I used to.

i want to get back on track

i want to get back to being a gym rat

i want to get back to saying no to sweets and carbs and chips

i want to get back to jogging for 30 minutes without stopping

i want to be able to lift like I used to

but i’ve lost it, and I really dont know how to get it back.

help.
