took a sneak peak
I usually weigh on Saturday mornings, but I always take a sneak peak around Tues or Wed morning just to see where I am....so this morning I just felt like I had probably not lost because of how I was feeling. I almost talked myself out of it, and even felt a little angry at myself, so I took the plunge and stepped on the…

I wanted to…

getting back on the wagon success story
So I've been slack for 6 months, costing me to navigate 42# away from a goal weight that I was once just 17# away from. This disgusts me and it's taken a lot of overcoming of negative feelings to get back in the right frame of mind and 'giving a crap' enough to get moving again. I've been weighing out and logging my food…
