Hot dogs. Beer.
Damn my weight loss efforts over holiday weekends. Okay, there was also the Coke and Skittles I snuck into The American on Saturday.
But I exercised: I walked home from Southwest from a cookout Sunday evening, Sunday I walked downtown a bit. And then, I did it again because I wanted to snag a copy of The Children’s Book to read for jury duty today. Yeah: jury duty. Can’t wait.
Anyway, I weighed in this morning at 237, which is up two and a half pounds from last week’s 234.5.
(Today marks the six month anniversary of my weight loss efforts).
You know, I’m only saying this because I care. Think about this. The holidays are coming up. If you don’t buckle down and show some restraint, you are going to be mighty disappointed by the New Year. You can DO this. If you would commit to giving up those things that you KNOW are adding on the pounds, you would shed that weight like it was nothing. You don’t have to miss out on any of the fun of the parties and get togethers, you just have to realize that your NOT missing out on anything when you choose to not eat fatty food. What you “miss” in taste is nothing compared to the reward of being trim and fit. Eat before you go out where you know you’ll be tempted. Keep that weight goal in mind at all times. You’ll be so happy with yourself when you look in the mirror and realize that not only did you lose the weight, but you proved that you can be dedicated to your goals and it will have seemed easy after it’s over.
