The past week and a half has been very bad for me. I got sick starting at the end of last week and my stomach is still hurting pretty bad. Then I got a migraine that lasted like, two days, so I honestly haven't had the time/energy to go work out. I DID however, buy some shoes for spin class! I'm really excited about that but now that I'm talking about them, I totally forgot that I left them at home! I may go back for them...that is, if the class still has a spot left in it. Otherwise, no way!

Anywho, I'm admitting right now that I haven't been doing as well as I should be, but hopefully these issues with my stomach will go away by week's end so that I can start next week off right. I feel disappointed in myself but all I can really do is recognize that I haven't been doing the best I could be and move forward from there.

It's been a couple of days. It's been one hectic week! Monday-Wednesday were crazy days...one of my best friends living in Houston had to evacuate because of the hurricane. Not blame her, but I was so stressed about it, that I ate 1 1/2 bagels yesterday! Luckily, I went to spin class, cut back on my lunch and my dinner so that helped but I still feel really guilty. I feel like I've failed myself this week and it would be a miracle if I lose any weight this upcoming week simply because I've sabotaged myself the last two days. I don't know what my problem is, but all I know is if I see that number go up next week, I'll probably break down in a heap of tears. Hopefully, I'll have a good weekend.

Hello fatsecret friends! I don't want to write about myself today. Instead, I'd like to say how glad I am for this site; it has connected me with people like you who understand what it's like to feel a need to change your lifestyle. So many people will make comments about your current situation and about your need for weight loss. Some will even go so far as to purposely offer you food that is not in your regimen or keep you from working out. EVERYDAY is a struggle for all of us...denying temptation, eating a meal we don't necessarily care for, envying people that can eat what we wish we could or even just being annoyed with those people who can eat whatever they want and not gain a single pound! And for what? To lost a few pounds? Well, you know what? We're all human, and all of us have downfalls...ours just happens to be food. Lucky for us that we have all taken a stand to change our bad habits so we can later enjoy our just desserts (in moderation, of course.) I want to say this for myself but also for anyone reading this who may feel they are losing their determination or the will to continue with their weight loss journey...we as a society love to see it when someone fails. It's why we can't help but look at pictures of celebrities without makeup. PROVE THOSE PEOPLE (and yourself) WRONG! Show them that you WILL NOT be pushed over and that YOU WILL succeed. You're diet will not last forever, and is very much a temporary thing. When you have reached your goal and feel comfortable with your new weight, you can look all the nay-sayers in the eye and tell them it was all worth it!

I'm a failure! I had a Bit O'Honey AND a Laffy Taffy, the fun size, from work's candy jar! I've been down in the dumps today...I'm sure other ladies can understand what I mean. Forgive me if I'm sharing TMI, but I think it's just that time of month. I could cry at the drop of a hat and for no reason at all...I was planning on NOT working out today, but the thought of sitting at home watching family guy when I could be at the gym working off those two pieces of candy made me feel guilty. I HAVE TO GO. I'm just not looking forward to it. I was going to run on the tredmill but I'll probably just wind up walking on it. I guess that's better than nothing, right? I feel like I'm just cheating myself right now and failing because of this one set back of having candy. :( I'm the saddest right now.
