It’s been nearly 3 weeks since my last post (that sounds like the beginning of a confession…sorry, I was raised Catholic!) I’d like to say I’ve just been so busy, dazzling myself with success, dropping pounds like melting butter, but that would be an outrageous lie.
Okay, it’s not as bad as it could be, either. I’ve kept up some semblance of a workout routine, so even though I’ve gained each week since the wedding, it’s been less than 10 pounds total. Of course, if I keep going this way, it’s going to be over 10 pounds…then 20…then 30…all the way back to my starting weight.
No one has commented on my weight gain, so I don’t know if that’s because they haven’t noticed yet, or because they have manners. Who is going to march up and say “Lordy, porky! Packing pounds back on?” But I’m not going to give anyone a reason to notice, or a chance for others (they know who they are) to gloat about me gaining weight back.
I’ve gotten flaky with my workouts, and that stops right now. No excuses! I am going to work out after work tonight. Probably weights, and add on some light cardio or abs.
I’m back to logging my food. LoseIt had their premium accounts on sale for 50% off, so last week I upgraded to premium. If anyone else is on LoseIt, send me a message (mystalkerisfat2015@gmail.com) so we can find each other and buddy up! (That’s not the email address I used for LoseIt, so you won’t be able to find me with that address.)
There’s no way for me to reach my goal weight in September, or even by Halloween. I’ve screwed around too long for that. I will weigh in this Saturday and get my new starting weight, then reset my goals from there. But I already know I don’t want to be still trying to lose weight during the holiday season, so my new goal is to reach my goal weight before Thanksgiving.
