Heres some MOTIVATION

Hi, I have been on my weight loss journey for awhile now about a year and half. I used to be 265. Now I am 217. I've gotton close to ONEderland and gained back some in recent months. But I am determined more then ever to get there. I have one life to live and I absolutely refuse to live it obese or overweight. I have kind of been beating myself up about gaining the 20 lbs back when I was so close, until I put in my Wii Biggest Loser Game that I haven't played in FOREVER... the message comes up and says welcome back, it has been more then 3 months since your last weigh in, please weigh in (It has really been like a year since Ive played it) and the screen shows that my last check in was 251 pounds. I thought WOW, here I am being so hard on myself for gaining some back that I lost sight of the fact that I have still lost 48 lbs from where I started from. I just basically wanted to try and give someone out there some encouragement, instead of being upset that you maybe didnt lose one week, instead, be excited that you didn't gain. Instead of being upset you didn't work out for 2 hours, be excited you worked out for 30 minutes. No matter how slow you go on your weight loss journey, at the end of the day, your still walking/running laps around everyone still on the couch.
