Today I broke my diet.
I cheated.
I hate a handful of chocolate covered pretzels and a piece of licorice. Oh and a few reeces pieces. Holy cow. Well, yes. That's what I feel like. A cow. A weak, pms-ing (sorry if that's TMI), cow.
Logically, I know I'm not. I know I'm still 24lbs down and set-backs are normal. And one day with cheating isn't terrible and it won't be the end of the world.
But.
I feel horrible.
I'm going to go take a bath and pour myself to bed. Tomorrow will be a better day.

One More Pound...
One more pound until I hit 25lbs. Holy smokes.
I met with Dr. W today as sort of my 3 month check in. I have lost 15lbs on her scale (I've lost 24 since my highest). I've lost inches and all in all I feel great.
I decided to stop taking the shots for a few weeks to see how I do on my own. I have 26 more pounds to go and hope to do that in about 6 months.
I'll be eating about 1,400 calories a day, working out 4 times a week and walking the pups. I should continue to lose 1-1.5lbs a week. I just need to stay motivated and I know I can do it. But I'll admit. I'm having a difficult time staying motivated.
How do you all stay motivated when you're hitting an exercise and/or diet rut?

::waves to readers::
Hi all! Sorry it's been so long since I've written anything. Tim and I went on vacation with 2 awesome couples then picked up our puppy. So. We've been busy.
That little weight loss ticker over there ::points to the right:: is still moving, so I'm happy with that. It's slow. But it's moving. And that's all that matters.
And I do have a confession.
I haven't been exercising as much as I should be. Since coming home from vacation, I've been working and chasing a puppy around. It's hard to do things, like exercise and cook, with needing to keep an eye on the puppy. And I feel so guilty when I'm gone all day and not give the dogs all of my attention. But. I'll get back into the routine. Like today. Today I'll exercise.
I've been asked a lot about what I do for exercise. Since I despise the gym, I've been doing The Biggest Loser Challenge on Wii, TBL Last Chance Workout and walking. I have TBL Challenge set for 4 days a week for 40 minute workouts on challenging. I do the Last Chance Workout on days I don't feel like doing the other and just want to get a workout over with and done.
Another confession. Even though I have it set for 4 days a week. I haven't stuck with the program. But my newest goal is to lose the next 7.5lbs in 3 weeks before I go to Boston. I know I can do it. I'll just have to stick with my workouts.
