I'm staying on plan because summer is REALLY coming soon and I want to actually wear short sleeves and shorts for the first time in years. I'm really tired of burning up!
The ONE reason I am staying on plan today is that I love seeing that scale go down. I just love it. It is a thrill for me. Better then any roller coaster, drug or any ANYthing.
The one reason I'm staying on plan today is because I (gulp!) signed up for a half marathon this summer, and I want to be carrying less of me over the finish line by the time it rolls around.
I have a big reason for staying on plan today. This morning DH was in the kitchen with me before he left for work. His employer started a company wide fitness challenge a few weeks ago, which he is participating in. He is also the captain of his team (they had to do teams, etc.). One benefit his company offers is reimbursement for WW fees at each 10% milestone, and with the challenge going on they've had a lot of people sign up for WW. So many in fact that they are talking about getting an "at work" meeting set up. So here's my reason for staying on plan....DH said he was going to go to work and recommend ME for the leader because I've accomplished so much. I told him that wasn't possible...not lifetime yet, etc., but just knowing that he is that proud of me and that he thinks I could impact all those other people, wow. To me, that statement he made this morning said 100x's more than any complement he could have given me. I need to prove to him and to myself that I can succeed at this!
Because even though the scale isn't moving, my body is changing. I've lost inches on my waist and thighs and arms. I don't get as tired easily and I feel like I'm developing much needed muscle.
My one reason, is I'm ready to get out of this rut that I've been in for the last two weeks!!!! I stepped on the scale to find my 9lb loss for the month has dropped to a 5 lb loss. My goal is 10.
I've GOTTA get out of this rut. I know how to do it. I will not sabotage myself any longer.
