Sorry its been so long since I last posted! I am on Spring Break this week (it's almost over =(( ) and was in KY for a few days and had no internet.
Anyway, last week I weighed in and gained 1.6 lbs.
Okay, honestly, Im not making excuses, but Im pretty sure it wasnt a real gain. I weighed in on my scale at home that morning too and I was at 167 and the next day when I weighed I was 165 (my scale is about 2 lbs more than the WW scale).
So, I dont know why that happened, or what I ate, but it was off. I didnt eat badly enough that week to gain and I honestly think I at least maintained. My weigh in just happened to land on the wrong day, lol.
Anyway, moving on from that, THIS week is the week I should gain. I havent eaten badly, but I havent eaten well either. Since I was in Kentucky I was eating out almost every meal. There are a couple places there that I never get to eat at, so I treated myself to things I would not have treated myself to otherwise.
Even though I will be disappointed if I gain, I will understand why.
This week, Anna (my WW friend and fellow blogger) blogged about eating non processed foods all week and I may challenge myself to do this starting this Monday. I want to start eating less processed foods anyway, and I know it will help with my weight loss.
For the past month or so, my weight loss has sucked. I know why and I know what I need to do to fix it. It really sucks that being a broke ass college student makes it so hard to stay on track. Im going to sacrifice all the money I have left from my paycheck to get good foods for next week.
I just have to start seeing results. Im beginning to start have negative feelings about myself and my weight loss journey and that is not going to help me. I find myself constantly trying to be positive, because I know that beating myself up about things will not do anything for me. I am not quitting this time. Im just not. I have to do this for myself. I have to be completely selfish and only think of me when it comes to this. I have to take care of myself because no one else can! This is important. I am important. Sometimes I have a hard time remembering that I am doing this for myself and that I want this. I want this more than anything I have ever wanted in my life.
I need this to work this time, and it will. If it takes me 5 years to get this stupid weight off of me, I will wait 5 damn years.
Anyway, enough rambling. I definitely feel good about this next week. I will LOSE at my weigh in after this one. I may lose this Saturday, but I dont want to set myself up for disappointment.
I can do this, and to anyone who is reading this; You can too. So, let's do this...

I think you absolutely have to be selfish. It's the only way to be with weight loss. It's good to see you haven't lost determination. I know you'll start losing! I think the no processed foods thing has helped a lot;I just feel a lot better so I definitely recommend it. You can also eat beans and rice, which are cheap, if you don't want to buy super expensive crap. Good luck tomorrow!
ReplyDeleteI love beans and rice!!! lol
ReplyDeleteIts probably one of the most filling things ever.
