Time to get serious

Okay, so the 10lbs that I referred to in the last post is actually more like 15+. Ugggh. Fresh start today...no excuses!

Confessions of a real life loser

I am such a loser. (not in the good way) The weight loss process started to slow during summer. Then this Fall, I came to an abrupt halt, but I hadn't thrown in the towel totally. Now, I've gain/lost/regained about 10lbs time and time again. Physically, I know what to do. Mentally, I'm a mess. I'm frustrated that I can't do everything. My responsibilities can be overwhelming. If I concentrate on one area, I fail miserably in the others. Where's the balance I thought I had achieved?

Wrong Way

Nuff said.

Reminders

I like the way I feel when I'm making healthy choices. I feel less implusive, more in control. I feel more energetic and less cranky. Eating on program and staying active is the not so secret to success.

Control & Balance

So there is a total freak (Tracy, I think?) on "Biggest Loser" that is OUT OF CONTROL! The more she doesn't exercise internal control, the more hell bent she is on gaining external control. The show will take care of her soon. :-) Unfortunately, I've been feeling the same way and, strangely enough, the reverse.. The scale is stuck, and my emotional state is shot. Where's the motivation, self control, and balance that I had a firm grasp on the first half of this year? I don't think you lose 75lbs on a fluke, but...?

New start

I've been losing control and my mind. I was going to start again in 8 days when the kids go back to school, but I can't wait that long. I need this today! My goals for today are to eat on program and stay busy at home.

How many times do I have to say this?

EXERCISE IS THE KEY!!! I feel better, both physically and mentally and I am much more careful with my food choices when I exercise. It's embarrassing that I have to have this pounded into my thick skull time and time again. I get down right insane when I don't sweat. Funny, isn't it? I don't sound like the old me at all and I'm okay with that.
