Ok this is part I HATE about being motivated to lose weight…

I weighed in today for Survivor Fitness…and I am still holding onto 1.5 of TOM’s little gifts….and now I am starting to feel that frustrated feeling…and I HATE that!

When I am not motivated it is easier to blow that stuff off and say “oh well - maybe tomorrow”…but I want to see some movement on the scale - TODAY!!!!   UGH!!  TOM is still here so I should cut myself some slack…he will be leaving early Monday I think…so I guess if I really want I can take a mid-week peek again and see if it is better then…or just wait…I dunno we’ll see how I feel…

I think part of my problem is that I fell off the wagon BIG TIME last night…and it was my own fault.  My daughter and I spent all day shopping and we didn’t eat - so by 5pm we were starving and I picked all of us up SONIC for dinner…and then we had Halloween cupcakes and I couldn’t resist - 3 TIMES I couldn’t resist…can anyone say “OINK”

I think that is my problem….I was hoping against hope that even with that MAJOR tumble I would still see something good this morning….that the rest of the week would balance it out….so much for wishful thinking….I should just be happy that I didn’t see a GAIN…

So today my plan is to get back on plan…tomorrow was supposed to be my cheat day…I promised the kids pizza…looks like I will have to be smarter than that…maybe cheese pizza and only one slice with a salad…at least I can feel good about that…and the fall makes me feel like I need to work out extra today so that might not be such a bad thing….

Ok…so yes, I would like some cheese with my whine…thank you very much….LOLOL!

    I have been having an off month…
    this little piggy went on a binge…and didn’t know when/how to stop:) I think I am doing better now. So far it seems that way…but I am not completely back to dieting though…and TOM is coming soon…
    hang in there!

    Oink!! AND make sure it’s low-fat cheese, I prefer the Laughing Cow to accompany my whine! LOL!

    Anyhow, without intending to, you found the culprit to MY fall from the exercise wagon this week–you said: When I am not motivated it is easier to blow that stuff off and say “oh well - maybe tomorrow”…

    AHA!! Lightbulb moment!! Can I get an Amen sister? You hit the nail on the head—since the Biggest Loser Contest started, I keep going up and down the same pound, despite the fact that I am exercising and drinking my water, so yes, I lost my mojo because I became discouraged—but of course, not working out is counter productive to my weight-loss goals, correct?

    See the power of your blogs? You’re the best, that’s why I love you!! Heheh!!

    Ok…no excuses, my sorry a$$ will get to the gym today and tomorrow…at least I would’ve completed 3 workouts instead of only one!! You rock and roll!!

    As for you young lady, let’s make a CONTRACT with ourselves—you will only stick to ONE SLICE of pizza today and I will go to the gym…DEAL?

    Don’t feel bad, I gained 4 lbs this week! You haven’t given up, and that’s all that really matters!
