I want to lose 30 pounds in 2009... I want to lose another 20 in 2010.. and be healthy by the time I turn 30 in October of 2010! I don't think I can do it... I know I can!!! :)

The Good, The Bad, and The Very Very Ugly..

HaHa,

That's SOOOOOOooooOOOO not my bathroom, that is one of the NICER bathrooms I encountered in Egypt! LOL

It was just one of those weeks. I am feeling so much stress from work (yick) and from trying to lose weight (double yick) and I ended up just being worn out by Wednesday. So I left work at lunch, and took Thursday off too. Let's hear it for "Mental Health Days"! WOOHOO

I can honestly say I feel So much better!

I lost 1.2 this week, and I feel okay with that, not great, not bad, just okay.

I have to focus this week, I have to track, go to the gym consistently, and really really give it 100%!

It's fairly funny. Today at Weight Watchers a lady said how hard it is for her, she has about 80 pounds to lose... she's where I was when I started at WW. She said it seems like so much that she sees it as unattainable, and if she only had 30 to lose she'd be laughing. Meanwhile, when I had 80 to go I found it so easy, and now that I'm at just under 30 to go, I'm lost, I feel daunted, like it's just too far away now.

It also doesn't help when my family and some friends keep telling me I've lost enough, and I should be happy where I'm at.
WTF?

If you want to get to Italy, would you take a plane to England and say, well that's close enough, so I'm good here ?

Okay perhaps that's not the best example, but C'mon people! A little encouragement! LOL

So we'll see how this week goes.. hoping to get back into the 170's.... I think I can!

Hope you all have had a fabulous losing week!
xoxo

  1. Thanks! I think I need a Mental Health Month. I'm going through the same thing right now. And everyone continues to tell me how "too skinny" isn't attractive.
    Good job on losing this week. I gained but determined to do better this week.

    Have a good week
