It's that time again. This week has flown by so quickly.
Okay now, it's time for confession. I have not followed my "healthy" diet very well this week and have eaten out way too many times. We eat out with my in-laws probably three or so times a week. I love them & don't want to miss out on the fun, so I go... but I have no will power when the plate of cheese fries are in front of me... or the menu for that matter. No one made me order the cheese burger. I did it to myself.
While I still feel better this week, I can't help but wonder how much better I would feel if I had been able to stick to the diet as well.
I am swearing off vowing this week, because last week I VOWED to do better and then was stagnant so instead I am not going to vow, not going to do it. I will not do it. Instead I will just go back in my closet & play dress up with my old clothes that I can fit into again. If this doesn't work, next week I will get out the boxes of clothes from the next size down & hang all of them in my closet (none of them fit me right now... so it would really be a CRUEL joke... Sitting there just staring at all the clothes that I can't wear).
Okay, now it's time to stop beating myself up... I can save all that to motivate me next week. This last week HAS been productive. I have been able to workout & play a bit more than normal and my body is definitely feeling the effects. I keep having to take breaks from typing to do my happy dance. I didn't lose pounds this week but I have moved down another pant size. Woo HOOO!
Just a quick recap: Since I have started my half-efforted workout challenge, I have lost 9 pounds and two pant sizes. I have 14 more pounds to go or two more pant sizes. I'll be honest, I really don't care about the weight itself. I don't mind if I don't lose another pound, however I DO want to lose the two more pant sizes. I want to comfortably fit into my old clothes again. And when I say comfortably, I mean I want to be able to wear them & bend over without having to worry that I am going to split my pants or have the buttons fly off shooting across the room as I sit down. My ultimate dream goal is to be able to put on a bathing suit and not pick myself apart. Is it really possible??? Are there women out there that are totally comfortable with their bodies???

Wow. Congrats on your weight loss! You can stick with it!
Thanks for the comment! It gave me the chance to see your cute sight and beautiful children!! I hope to be a Moxie mom one day;)
Congrats on being 2 pant sizes smaller!!
I'm comfortable with my body..SOMETIMES. Then other times I could stand in front of the mirror and list a hundred things I wish was different. I'm not fat or husky or overweight but I could be a lil thinner..like you said I'd love to fit into the size I use to be before I had kids. But I gotta keep reminding myself I just had a baby 6 months ago..and that I'll be there soon. :)
Glad to see you haven't given up..we all need to indulge every now and then! If it makes you feel any better I had not 1 not 2 but THREE cupcakes the other day.
