The first day of the last quarter of the year. Most companies are giving major pep talks to their employees to get everyone to end the year big. Well that’s what I want to do, well maybe not big, but small. I’ve had a rough few months with eating and I just really want to end the year like I started. Today I’ve done really good. I tracked everything I’ve had to eat and although it was 44 points, it’s all accounted for. I’m feeling pretty sick today so i didn’t exercise but that’s okay.
Today in our meeting we discussed why we all want to lose the weight. I want to share all the answers because I think we can all relate to this. I actually took a picture of her flip board:
Health, look better, no pity, enjoy being in my body, forward movement, kids, live longer, feel better, change family history, be happy, proactive in our society, not embarrass my kids, clothes fitting, shop at regular stores, no XXL, self esteem, confidence, be in control, to not have a weight issue, lose medications, and to inspire others.
I started to reflect on how important getting to my goal weight is to me. Over the last few months I’ve put on 7 pounds. I don’t want to gain anymore. In fact, I want to lose 15 pounds before the end of the year. I know I can do this. I have to remember why I let the tools that helped me be successful go, then I have to push myself to get over this hump and do the work. NO ONE CAN DO THE WORK FOR ME. I have to be the one to track what I eat, I am the one that chooses what goes into my mouth, and I have to be the one to motivate myself to exercise. Well today was a good start and I WILL continue this and I WILL be successful.
