9/20

AHHHHHHH!!! (That's me screaming, not a happy ahhh!) I feel so frustrated, almost on the verge of giving up, but I refuse to! I wieghed 1.5 lbs more today than last Sunday. I worked out 2 days this week and had excuses for the rest of the days... mostly that I am just SO tired! I think that I am still trying to get used to the routine of school days again. It's hard to go from staying up til midnight and getting up at 8 to getting up at 5:30. I think part of the problem is that I set too high of goals for myself and yet I feel that if I don't that it's too easy to just slide. I'm not sure what the middle ground is but I'm going to keep looking for it! On to a new week, no looking back!

Ok, no more excuses, this week I get back on track!! (We'll see) I actually weighed a pound less than last week. Still not back to my lowest so far and still haven't lost any more. Last Saturday was a party for my birthday and this Saturday was a party for Kelsey's. Pizza, cake, ice cream, I guess I should be glad that I haven't gained 10 pounds! Anyway, we're done with birthdays for a while and now the girls are back in school, Britt and Holden have returned home, so I have no more excuses! This week I WILL work out and eat better...we'll see what I have to say next week.

Well, it's almost a week into September, what happened to the summer? The kids go back to school on Tuesday and Wednesday, Britt and Holden leave on Wednesday, then it's back to the old routine! This week, like the past several have been up and down. This morning I was up 2 lbs from last Sunday. Yesterday was my birthday and I ate movie popcorn and lots of cake so I wasn't really surprised, but still, it is frustrating! On to a new week, a new month and a new me, right? I am really going to try to get back into my work out routine this week. Some days may be hard but I'm going to try. Hopefully next Sunday I can post better results because this is getting old (and so am I)!

Well, it's (almost) the end of another month. I weighed about a pound less than last week but actually had lost and gained again this week. I feel like I am getting nowhere! This has been a crazy week (do I say that every week?). Britt and Holden came Tuesday and we have been really busy with shopping, a trip to the beach, visiting people, etc. We've eaten out a few times and I haven't been really worrying too much about it. I have continued to NOT work out this week. I am going to try this next week but it may have to wait until school starts and life gets back to some sort of routine. I will continue to move forward, no looking back!

I could just ditto last weeks post. Yesterday morning I finally got back down to my lowest weight so far. I had reached that on Aug 3, and finally on the 22nd had gotten back there. I was so happy yesterday...until this morning when the Wii told me that I had now gained 1.8 lbs! It is SO frustrating!!! I know that I need to get back to working out, I just can't seem to get motivated. I'm not sure how I will do the next couple weeks with Britt and Holden here, but we shall see. I'm going to try and maybe when school starts and we get back into a routine I can get back with it. I refuse to beat myself up about it!

Another week, blah! This morning when I got on the Wii Fit it told me that I weighed 1 lb more than I did last Sunday. I actually gained 3 lbs this week and lost 2. Kind of tired of this up and down! I didn't work out at all this week. Not sure why, just lazy. I really need to get my butt in gear and get with it! I've been eating good this week. The only thing bad was Arby's Friday night but other than that, just good stuff. Tomorrow is a new day and a new start...right? Man I'm getting tired of saying that!

8/9

Wow, this week has been crazy! Lost weight and gained it back and lost and gained! I think I'm still about where I started the week. Frustrating but what can you do? Well, maybe work out more that two days, not eat hamburgers and fries two days in a row, not have a blizzard and ice cream...whatever, it's another week, another start. I refuse to get down on myself, I just had an "off" week. Next week will be better...right?
