The weigh it is...


Since I hit my highest weight ever at the end of last year, I have been weighing in every Sunday in hopes to see that number go down. So far, it hasn't exceeded that dreaded number or gone back there, but the speed at which it is coming off is definitely at a turtles crawl, with many naps along the way. Seriously. I will have an amazing week, then gain it all back plus some the next, it's really driving me bonkers. What I KNOW works, is keeping track of what I'm eating. I've got the being active portion covered. ;) I just know I could be losing faster if I was more accountable for what/how much I'm eating. It's truly a fight against my subconscious. When I'm in pretty well ANY mood fluctuation; happy, sad, angry, worried, tired, stressed, elated, bored... (enter every & all moods) I turn to food. It's been that way for so long, it's definitely proving to be the hardest of habits to change. It is as hard as a smoker trying to quit smoking or an alcoholic trying to stop drinking... the biggest glaring difference being I can't cut food from my life! Food is one of life's basic necessities. It will always be there. For the most part I eat healthily. I like raw, organic foods in my diet most of all. My biggest problem is quantity... and ice cream & chocolate SOO after weighing in this morning, after my morning pee, in my birthday suit & seeing that number drop for the second week in a row, by 0.6lbs... HEY, that 1.4 total! I'll take it! But I know I can do better. I'm ready to tackle this food addiction once & for all! I mean business. I have been working out all of May, nearly everyday, minus a rest day here & there. Point being, I've formed a habit, that I, nor my body, want to quit! I'm loving my new post workout glows. With the sweat dripping down my brow...

I want to make myself accountable for what is going in my mouth in the same way I plan my workouts for the week & follow through with them!


So far I am still down from my highest weight. But I've got a LOONGGG ways to go.... over 100 pounds long. I'm not at a point where setting goals really drives me, it's not even about the number really, I'm mostly looking to feel better about myself and to be healthier all around. which requires some pound sheddage I'm thinking I will post what I've eaten on here, not everyday, that would just get crazy, but a couple days a week. To keep myself accountable, as well as posting my weekly weigh in's. So as of now my total weight down = -8.2lbs. Hopefully next week I'm faced with a smaller number.


Happy Sunday! =)
