Why can't we ever just fast forward our lives? I know that WW is working, I feel the difference, and I read all these success stories about people getting to goal, and I just want to get there! Yes, I'm inspired, but I guess also a tad jealous. If I would have just stuck with this last summer then I could easily have been to goal by now. Why couldn't I just do it?
Okay, now I got that out of my system. I just need to take every day one at a time, do what I can and get to my goal. Slow and steady wins the race, right? I'll get there. I know what to do, I know I'm doing the right thing, other than my eating habits on the weekends. I'm starting to enjoy exercise and I'm limiting my portion sizes. I'm getting better at cooking for just the two of us and if I'm full not to eat the rest of my plate, I can take it to work. I can cross my legs almost comfortably - anyone who had big thighs and couldn't cross the comfortably, you know what I'm talking about. I eat more fruits and vegetables than I need have to in order to meet my GHGs. I've done alot of change in my past 2 months on WW, and I am proud of myself. There's still a long road ahead, but if I can continue what I've done, and get my weekend eating habits under control, I'll be good to go.
I think I need to get a measuring tape and start measuring. That way if I don't see a loss on the scale because of gaining muscle or something, I'll be able to still see if I'm changing my body.
I should pray for strength and for God to take away these feelings of jealousy and instead be excited for those who are succeeding with their journey. As a Christian, I need to not be jealous, I need that emotion to leave my body and never enter in again. Lord, help me.
I just need to focus on MY weight loss journey, be proud of what I've done to help myself, and celebrate with those who are having victories.
i know the frustration feeling! in our world nowadays we want things instantly...and it can be hard when they don't come that way haha. but you can do it...you are doing great! :o) and like the saying goes, "slow and steady wins the race!" i've heard many times that you have a better chance of keeping your weight off forever if you take it slow and really instill those changes in your life! so...just think that it's something you want to laste FOREVER! :o)
ReplyDeletehope you have a successful week! oh and p.s. it was fun reading your last post and getting to know you a little better :o)
@ Taylor - I'm glad someone's reading them! I was worried I was writing to no one, haha!
ReplyDeleteI wish you luck, too! I'm hoping to see that scale go down on Friday, but with the weekend I had? We shall see!
