I did horrible this weekend, hence no recordings. Actually Friday night we went to this BBQ place and had nachos with pork appetizer. They were delicious, didn't eat them all and I must say, by the time my meal came (BBQ chicken, sweet potato's and Spanish rice and beans) I was only able to eat a little of the chicken. The food wasnt that great, I ate a few bites of sweet potato and the Spanish rice was horrible. The remainder of the meal was trashed so maybe I didn't have that bad of an eating Friday. Oh yes, a slither of cake. I didn't exercise for two days straight. 5 days of exercise seems really weird since I've been doing 7 days. I ate oddly on Sunday and Saturday. Overall a bad eating weekend for me. But it's Monday so that means getting back on track. Of course I won't expect to see a weight loss of Wednesday, but I have come to terms with that. The OCD side of me had a plan of getting up in the morning to go to the gym to burn 500 calories on the elliptical and then in the evenings when I come home burn another 500 on the treadmill until Wednesday which would burn 3,000 calories close to the 3,500 calorie mark which burns a pound of fat. Then I realized that this idea was INSANE.

I get nervous and I sabotage my goals because despite the fact that I've been losing weight I can't ever see myself reaching the goal I set for myself. I reason with myself and I still find myself falling off the wagon. Nightly, I map out a plan to reach my goal, which I have decided could possibly be the middle of January if I were to continue to lose weight. I have mini goals for myself such as by the 10th be at 164 because I am having this major hair treatment done to my hair and I haven't seen my hairdresser in 6 weeks. She probably won't even notice the weight loss. December 14th is my birthday so I want to be at 162, December 24th I am going to see my parents so I want to be at 160, December 31st will be the beginning of the new year so I would like to be 158 and then my cousin is likely having a 40th bday party in Michigan that I would like to attend, I believe in the middle of January and that is when I want to be at my goal weight of 155. So many goals and no room for error. Gotta figure out why I sabotage myself. I've reached so many goals in my life, harder ones then losing weight I need to examine myself and figure out my problem. Anyway, I meet the personal trainer tonight. This should be interesting.

Your comments seem so negative. I was exactly the same way. Then I read "Winning By Losing" by Jillian Michaels. The "Self" section really opened my eyes to how my emotions and attitude were stopping me from losing weight. I have been focusing on the positive and setting small goals, but you have to leave room for error. I didn't lose 8 pounds by the end of the month, but I knew I had stayed on track to the best of my ability, so I bought myself new shirts anyway. I think you can do it! You just have to tell yourself you can do it, and remind yourself every morning that you CAN do it! You're so close!! Don't give up!
