A lot of things have been missing lately;
me-here
my motivation
any movement in the right direction on the scale
I haven't been around much lately.  Honestly I've been avoiding you all and myself.  I was doing really well on my diet and nothing was happening.  Well, that's not true, I was gaining.  I wasn't perfect with the diet but I was doing really well.  So the other day I was fed up.  I had Wendy's for lunch, homemade mac and cheese, and then cookie dough when I made cookies with my son.  You know what?  The scale was down 2.5 pounds the next day.  WHY???  I hate my metabolism.  I hate that I can eat so well and gain but then a day of crap eating and I lose.  It really messes with you mentally.  I know that I can't continue to eat crap, it doesn't work that way.  ARGH!! 
On another note I went out last night with the girls.  It was a lot of fun!!  I ate a few potato nachos and one piece of lobster quesadilla but after that I was good.  I had a salad and water and a few grown up drinks.  I was proud of myself for not gorging on the appetizers and for eating my salad and not wanting dessert!  yay! 
So here I go again, back on track, back to heading in the right direction, I hope.  The weather today is amazing but my day is crazy full.  Hopefully I'll get a good walk in at some point. 
So I'm back, for better or for worse.  Time to get this show on the road.  This morning I was 284 so I am still +2 from my low but +2 is better than it was a few days ago.  I'll take it.  I also remind myself that I am +2 from my low but still down 22 overall.  That's something to be proud of.

Welcome back, Colleen! Have you ever thought about joining a group like WW or a free online diet community? The meetings really help keep me accountable. As far as online communities, I keep hearing good things about Spark or Sparkle...something like that.
ReplyDeleteI do like Sparkpeople some. I don't think a meeting would make a difference honestly. I've been doing better.....we'll see.
