Help! I'm falling and I can't get up! I don't know what the heck has happened to me you guys! I haven't been to the gym since last Tuesday! I haven't followed any kind of diet (well maybe moderation, a big maybe) , for the last week and I've been the laziest person in the world. And what do I blame? What's my excuse? My period's coming. And I know that PMS isn't an excuse, and technically I haven't gained any weight...but I feel horrible... like a failure...well not an utter failure because I have confidence that I can get back on the bandwagon...but failure in the sense that I was soooo goood with exercise for two weeks. And exercise is my magic pill, it just works for me. But I know that I have no excuses and that I'm not out of this yet.... I will strive harder to reach my goals tomorrow...I guess I'm just typing this because I want to justify the number I'll see on the scale on Saturday....Ugggh...guilt sucks!!

So ok...this is more of a vent...then an actual entry...but anywho....Yesterday I went to the gym to get my nice little 80 min workout in, and I was already 23 minutes into my elliptical workout when one of their trainers came over and started talking to me (a major pet peeve while I'm working out...I'm by no means stuck up, but the LAST thing that I want is some stranger talking to me while I'm sweating and huffing and puffing). So then he persuades me and my workout buddy to go over and talk to him where he's going to "educate us, and give us the knowledge necessary." Do you know he took an hour and a half to tell me stuff I already know. I'm fat. Thanks got that. I need to lose weight. Oh really? Got that too. I need to exercise regularly. You don't say? I can't eat everything. For real? I completely concede that I do not know everything, and that if I had tons of money I may hire a personal trainer...maybe...doubt it...but maybe, but I know for dang sure that on my salary, if I can't get my happy butt up to go to the gym and if I can't keep my mouth closed on my own then I simply don't deserve to lose anything. Anyways, after my so-called "education" he proceeded to try to get my to buy a personal training package for a ridiculous amount of money. In the end I weaseled my way out of there promising to come work out with him today. But point blank I don't want to. I shouldn't feel swindled at my own gym. The way they talked to me yesterday was as if I was this hopeless fat ball that couldn't lose weight without them. So yeah I'm not training with him today...I'm going to take that doubt...and show them that this fat ball can and will lose weight...and not have to pay money for it! Just had to vent...please leave any comments :) And thanks for your support!

Lost a pound...not too terribly excited though :) But I guess that's better than nothing since I only went to the gym 4 times this week, had pizza twice, and was a complete bum and midnight eater yesterday. 9 more to go to reach my goal for January! I can do this!!

Weigh-in: 319.0 lb

lost so far: 1.0 lb

still to go: 134.0 lb

Diet followed poorly

I gotta say it was a good day.... I went to the gym. Yay Me! I did 30 min on the elliptical and did 30 min of upper body weight training. I sweated, but I wasn't exhausted. Kinda like old times when I was a gym regular. I did get on the scale on Saturday and hadn't lost one once, so I didn't log my weight. I decided that I will weigh myself every Saturday morning to track my progress. I ate really well today too. Oatmeal for breakfast, a fiber one bar, a chicken breast sub on wheat bread from Quiznos, and for dinner we're having some curry chicken and brown rice. Of course there will be champagne at midnight...but then it's off to the gym again tomorrow to work it off. Cross your fingers you guys...I think I may just have my motivation back :)
