But I don't.
I'm still in the 290's, but barely. I was pretty bummed about it this morning but that's a distant memory now.
I stayed in my calories all day, I came home and worked out for 45 minutes, then I went to the grocery and speed walked through the whole store. I stayed positive and completely forgot about it until it was time to post.
It was still a loss of 2 pounds this week, so I have nothing to feel bad about even if I'm still in the 290's. It just means I'll have an awesome Tuesday next week.
Today was week 10 and I'm down a total of 14 pounds. That's an average of 1.4 pounds per week. In order to reach my goal of losing 100 pounds in a year, I need to lose an average of 1.8 per week. I guess it's time to pick it up a bit. Luckily I've found a way to exercise for 45 minutes without hating it. I've been watching episodes of Glee while I'm on the elliptical and it's awesome. That show is just so motivating. I guess there's a little Broadway star inside of me somewhere dying to get out. Everytime they burst into song (which is often) it makes me go a little faster and work a little harder.
The episode that I watched today filled me full of energy and I found myself dancing around the kitchen while I was making the grocery list, in the car, and through the whole grocery store.
I must have looked like an idiot.
And I don't care.
The world needs a little more dancing and singing and smiling in it.
"Few things in the world are more powerful than a positive push. A smile. A world of optimism and hope. A 'you can do it' when things are tough."
