The Good, The Bad & The Ugly

The Ugly -  Well...my eating the last couple of days has not been great at all! I feel like once the weather gets nice, all I want to do is eat! I had over 3200 calories yesterday and nearly 2700 calories on Friday! I am clearly not having a good start to my week.

The Bad - Part of it is I think I am frustrated with all the hard work I put in the past two weeks with no results. Instead of losing, I just gained! So my motivation is in the whole right now. It's hard to put in the effort when you are not sure it's even going to work. How do you dig out of that feeling of "screw it, it's not working anyway"!

The Good - the good news is I know I have it in me to keep going. I just need to dig deep and get myself out of this temporary slump. I have to remember where I came from and be proud of where I am today!

I think sometimes I give myself too big of a goal and then I set myself up for failure. So with that said I am changing my goal to just get to the 170's. I'm not even going to think about the 160's right now!!! Then all future goals with be in 5 pound increments.

Gone are the days of dropping 10 pounds in a month. The smaller I get the harder it has become! So baby steps are what I need to work for to get to my ultimate goal. I don't need to lose it fast! Slow and steady wins the race! ;)

Sometimes just writing these thoughts down helps me get through the rough times and brings the motivation back! Now I just need to try to end this week on a positive note!
