The last month or two has been really pathetic for me. I mean REALLY pathetic as far as losing weight goes. Simply because over the last few weeks I haven't really tried...as a matter of fact I did the furthest thing from trying...I subconsciously said, "Fuck it."
This is the thing...during that time period I have had so much happening (some things you guys know about from my blog, some things you don't) and I've been stressed to my max. What do I do when I'm stressed? I eat. Specifically anything that's bad for me. Therefore...I have gained back 7 lbs. I'm so upset and ashamed with myself. But I'm not going to let this beat me. I've done a lot of thinking and I've decided to go at this full force. My birthday is only about 3 weeks away (July 17th) and I still intend to try to look my best. So don't lose faith in me...

Stress can make you hold weight even if you aren't eating bad. It sounds like you need a vacation from your life.
And I totally have faith in you!
I feel like Linny in that i really haven't tried. I can't even recall the last time i saw the inside of my gym or the last time i ate a salad and a protein shake or steamed veggies. I've seen a lot of french fries these past two weeks though and beer, oh the beer. This weekend coming up is Canada Day so i have no promises as far as booze consumption goes. However, i will be swimming and quite active.
I am still the same as last week, so i have 3 pounds to go before i count new weight lost. I need to get out of this summer bleh and get my ass back in gear. I've been lazy all summer as far as trying goes. I need some more motivation or a new gym partner or something. Mine never goes. I suppose my motivation will be when i can't fit into any of my clothes....i won't let it get that far but i do need a swift kick in the ass.
Sounds like we all need a new workout partner. I wasn't surprised to find that I still wasn't below my lowest this week, since I also drank and ate a lot over gay pride. I had a really good day yesterday though. There was a very tasty cabbage salad and some fresh fruit in my diet. I'm also redoubling my efforts this week. Let's all pledge to get some exercise every day this week, and to go to the gym or do a really strong work-out at least 3 times.
I will promise to exercise. I have 3 days off of work this week, i have no excuses and i have a pool and an elliptical in the house i am at.
I agree...I was at the pool today and am planning to go again tomorrow. Then I plan on running Sat and Sun. I'm glad I'm not alone.
Ok...just came back from the store and bought myself a new outfit. Nothing major but lately I've just felt that none of my clothes are very flattering and it's been bringing me down. Nice new clothes that fit well always lift you up. The best part is when I got to the register, both items were 50% off and I didn't even know it!!
Excellent week. I had dragon boating 3 days and it is an out of this world workout. I ate well and kept with my breakfast routine. Although my scale shows less than half a pound loss I am very excited about this new routine. Hopefully next week I can report some real numbers.
Linny, we all go through lean patches and I wasnt really doing much either. Once you decide to start again it would not be hard for you.
