Did anyone else find it easier to start this journey? Like come on I’m down to my last 13- 15 pounds to lose? (give or take the day and what I eat and how bloated I am.) I should be STOKED the last 15 man! Seriously it’s so close to the last 10!!! But why do I not have that same kick in the butt attitude I did back in April of 2010? Sure at that time I was going through a rough break up and the compliments were flooding in with how well I’m doing…but now it’s like no compliments, I don’t feel like pushing myself. Like come on! I stopped working out once I was done with my trainer (though I dropped a good 8 pounds after I quit working out.) I can’t even use the excuse oh I have two job now, (since I stopped working out when I was still only working one job) I don’t have time, because I DO! I DO HAVE THE TIME! That hour I take for a nap, or the two hours I have before work I can simply go to the gym…but I hate the gym (again…) and I really want this new BOB Harper DVD Ultimate cardio but I can’t find the dumb video anywhere! So I’m using that as a lame excuse not to work out because I’m slightly sick of Jillian, well 30 day shred anyways and I can’t stand her longer DVD’s that I wasted all that money on around x-mas time. It also seems like when I start dating some douche, (or any guy but I mostly attract douches) I stop going to the gym, I don’t stop taking care of myself because we do eat healthy most of the time, but the workouts are just….not there! I would have probably already have reached my goal of a 140 if I kept on going instead of slacking so much! I want to smash my head…Alright I feel a little better.
I was so gung-ho about it the first 40-50 lbs and it's the last 20-30 that took the longest. I think when it became more vanity than health-related, I slacked off!
