Really getting back into my new life, I'm jumping in with both feet and not looking back!

I have found some ways to help me get back into the right mindset. I have joined 2 different weight loss/ healthy life style challenges. The first challenge is through my work, the Biggest Loser Challenge and it runs from last week until the end of April. It is kind of nice to have fellow co-workers working towards the same goal as me. We have to weigh in every week so my new weigh in day will be Fridays. If we don't lose weight that we are required to pay whatever the fee is for that week and at the end there will be a cash price for the top 3 losers.

The 2nd challenge I have signed up for is through my Mom's work and it's a pedometer challenge. It's main focus is making sure all of our team takes at least 10000 steps every day and we also have to log our fruit and veggie intake every day. This challenge starts tomorrow and runs until the end of April as well. I'm on a team with my mom and 2 of her co-workers. It’s great to be on the team with my mom and to have her to keep each other motivated.

I also have my bestie at work that is doing the Biggest Loser Challenge with me, even though I really don't think she needs to lose weight, it's nice to have her support at work all day. I'm finding that it really is helping me stay focused and super motivated!

I'm super excited to watch the scale go down and just feel better! It took a while but I finally have my head screwed on right again. No more falling off, no more looking back... Today is here and I plan to make it the very best and healthiest day I can!

Finally getting my motivation back! Thank goodness, it's about time! I think I just have to take it one day and one meal at a time. I think I get way to overwhelmed if I think about all the changes that I will have to make in the long run.

So that's what I'm going to keep doing...

Finding it very hard to get back into it this time... I'm getting frustrated with myself already! I want to do this, I need to do this and yet, I am falling off, and can't really manage to stay afloat this time around.

It's so much easier to just eat whatever you want whenever you want and not have to worry about counting calories or making healthy food choices, but my weight shows that I am not able to eat like that without gaining more weight. I have to stop this cycle once and for all!

I am so sick of avoiding mirrors and making excuses for myself, I have to find the motivation and will power to do this right to the end this time, NO MORE EXCUSSES!

I deserve to be happy with myself and feel comfortable with my appearance. I don't want to be this lazy ass person that I have become, I was so happy with myself before I let it all go again. It frustrates me so much that I took my eye off the goal and look what happened, it doesn't take much for me to give up on everything and just let go and slip right back into all my bad habits... Not cool!

I have to get this back under control, once and for all, it just feels so hopeless right now...

Yess! First day back and I'm not going to lie, it was pretty hard to stay away from all the leftover Christmas treats! Everyday will get easier, I just have to keep that in mind.
