WARNING TO ALL MY READERS!!! I am in the middle of a pity party! So this morning was our monthly weigh in. I was so excited!! I have been working SO hard, going to the gym often, doing different types of work outs, eating healthy foods, low calories, vitamin taking daily EVERYTHING! And yet when I stood on that scale this morning it was not very nice. Yes I did lose weight, NINE pounds to be exact. This brings me to a total loss of 36 pounds. But yet let me explain that I gained 3 pounds since Monday!!!! So as I stepped off the scale, and walked upstairs to work out I pondered the things I have done this past month to try to say what more I could have done.....nothing came to my mind. I turned on my favorite music in hopes it would change my outlook but it only made things worse.....as I was warming up on the track tears filled my eyes! I was SO upset!!! I tried to pull things together but it didn't happen! So I left, Yes I didn't finish my workout in fact I really didn't even sweat. I came home and crawled back in to bed, crying myself asleep. I gave myself a time limit to have a pity party. At 10am it will end! Instead of turning to junk food I found many inspiring quotes that made me laugh and think 9pounds.....I am doing OK-
The 1st is a quote from the movie Heavy Weights “
Kids, at age 12, I weighed 319 pounds. I had bad skin, low self-esteem, and no self-respect. Now, I eat success for breakfast, with skim milk.” -Tony Perkis I need to be a little MORE positive! I can't beat myself up!!! 36 pounds in 4 months is not bad. I am not only losing weight I am trying to change my life to become healthier.
The second one is a picture of ONE pound of FAT........
I Had to stop and think about this......I have lost 36 of those! That's AMAZING! I am doing hard things, and I will see my reward! I have NOT quite, or given up! I just needed a few hours to feel bad for myself. (Maybe some extra sleep) I am even MORE determine to work HARDER!!!!
Thanks to my Amazing Team for supporting me, My incredible trainer Tiffany for pushing me, My Dad and his words of encouragement, and my Hubby and family for loving me for who I am!
Until next time......
