Kick in the Butt

Sometimes no matter how much you anticipate and prepare for something it does not change how you feel when it happens.

Today was the first day at my weigh in that I didn't experience a loss for the week. I wasn 't surprised and I actually expected it, but it still hurt. I want to be clear that I was not expecting a gain because I had made really bad choices all week. I definitely engaged in treating myself this weekend, but I did feel that my so so efforts over the last couple of weeks were going to catch up with me and on top of that I have not been feeling good and I think this may also have an impact on my weight at school.

So the good news, the gains was not a lot (less than a pound) and it was maybe the kick in the butt that I needed to get back on track.

I was serious in my earlier posts this week about getting back to just following the basics of the program with no expectartions or than to maintain my loss (I would have loved that this week). I am even going to go old school regarding my food tracker. I am pulling out the old paper food journal which can go everywhere with me taking away even more of my excuses.

I am planning to join my sister's drop in spin class on Monday (I may actually be crazy) so fingers crossed for a good week.
