because so many people have illness and challenges in there life that they have no choice about. Staying on plan to give myself a healthy and fit body is a choice I can make. I owe it to myself.
My one reason today is that I'm STILL sick and the doctor told me not to work out until I'm better. So I have to make sure I stay on plan with my eating.
The reason I stayed on plan today is that I reaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaally want to have a good weigh in on Monday. I'm PMSing so it could actually show a gain bc of water I always hold. But I'd love to see at least 1 pound down for it to be so close to TTOM. We'll see! I have read that the only real day to weigh yourself is 7 days AFTER you start your period. They said that is a true weight with no water being held or whatever. I don't know! Whatever! Either way, I am worried about Monday. I feel bloated already.
Casey I used to think about that all the time. I used to think how unfortunate people were to get cancers and other horrible diseases. And (thankfully) I would here of so many people who overcame such horrible things with flying colors. I would think they didn't ask for these things and look how they won their battles. Why the heck can't I win MY battle. It IS within my control and TOTALLY brought on by myself. My battle is nothing, nothing compared to those with diseases and the such.
Anyway, my ONE reason for staying on plan today is:
Aww, what the heck, I'll go with Casey and what I just wrote above. It's certainly a good enough reason to stay on plan today and everyday. Thanks for reminding us Casey.
My one reason for staying on plan today is because I really really want to hit Onederland, and my sickness has probably delayed that a bit. I hope not, but we'll see when I weigh in on Tuesday.
I'm staying OP today b/c I weigh daily (but only count Wed as official WI) and I've hit the 240's, I want to see the 240's come Wednesday so that I can log that weight and be done with the 250's!
Like LisaMarie, I'm staying on plan today to help me get to onederland. So close I can practically taste it! Unfortunately, I'm PMS'ing, so I think I'll be retaining water for a few days here - but I hope whatever I do by exercising and eating right will show up on the scale when the water retention stops.
Because I went to a huge, huge gigantic dinner last night honoring some friends. There was more food there you can possibly imagine. Actually too much, waaay too much. I kept thinking what a colossal waste it was, what a shame all the excess wasn't going to needy people. Anyway if I stayed on plan there last night, geez I can stay on plan today for sure. (I think )
because my clothes are getting bigger and I think my face is getting smaller.
RockinRobin and LisaMarie: I have heard of so many people lately fighting serious illnesses with grace and courage! It is very hard to think about people who want to live so much and have to fight very, very hard to do so. I would like to think that I would show such will to live. However, up until now I have take my body and health for granted. This battle is a battle I should be fighting with energy and gratitude for all I have been blessed with.
RockinRobin: One more thing! You are flying through those 190's! What a great job staying on plan!
The one reason I am staying on plan today is because I don't have any junk in the house and I'm not about to step outside! No, actually it's because I have no desire to go off plan, not craving it and not wanting to do it
The ONE reason I'm staying on plan today is: because I invested a lot of time and energy yesterday to plan and prepare my meal plan and I don't want to mess it up!
The one reason I'm staying on plan today: My inlaws know we are dieting...but, I don't think they believe we will stick with it. I want to lose a ton of weight and wow everybody the next time I see them!
