Weigh In Wednesday.......Catch-Up...& owning it...

Hello everyone,

I am back after what seems like a long time to me.  I don't know what has happened to my motivation really.  I did decide to get back to working out for like a week and a half.  During that time I actually gained weight which did not help me get back my motivation at all.  I know it was probably water weight and/or gaining of muscle weight but still not motivating to someone like me. 

Anyway, my last post was July 8th and since then I have been on a week vacation to the beach where I did not even think about my diet. (Bad idea!)  To see my weight stats just click on the "My Progress" Tab at the top of my blog.  Not much to see but at gradual upward trend. 

For those who have not read my blog before, I weigh in on Saturday mornings b/c that just seems to work better for me and sometimes I post my stats on Saturday, but sometimes I post them on Wednesday it just depends on how my week is going. 

Last Saturday I weighed in at 153.8 pounds.  That is up 4.7 pounds from my lowest point back in June.  :(  This makes me very sad that I would let myself get back to this point especially when I am off work all summer and had plenty of time to workout and eat right. 

At this point, I just need to own my mistakes and do better! I am trying to get back to tracking with Weight Watchers daily not just here and there and I really need to get back to working out even if I do gain a few pounds to begin with.  In the back of my mind I know that this is just something that happens when I start back working out but I let my lack of motivation use it as an excuse to start to give up again. You know what they say...if you are looking for an excuse you can always find one.  I WILL NOT give up on myself again.  I have come too far to go back now. 

Side note:  I tried to post pics from my vacation but my computer will not cooperate right now.  Hopefully I can do that later.


I hope everyone has had a great week,

Becky
