I know my constant posts seem a bit much, but I'm finding that posting more here helps keep me more accountable. It always has, thus, the time away resulted in packing on the pounds. I was up for awhile and packed on 30 pounds. So here I am, and I've lost 20 of those so far!  Who hoo!

 

So I didn't work out for 2 days ( I think). I was SO TIRED. This has been a rough week at work. I work at a DD facility and we have a few new staff and some of the residents don't handle new people very well, so we had a lot of behaviors that we had to deal with. I'm s supervisor there, so I have more responsibility and more responsibility means more stress.

 

BUT! Today is once again my day off and I worked out! =) I've been at this for 1 week now, figuring out this new work out schedule, and I'd say it's worked pretty darn well, I've even figured out how to squeeze in MORE days to work out! =) Out of 7 days I worked out 5 and lost 3 pounds! I think that's a great start! After being discouraged a bit, with a little encouragement from some great people here, I kept at it and finished strong! Thank you! =) I might be summer ready before too long!

 

Oh, I also forgot, another great motivator, that COULD HAVE BEEN a detriment, happened this morning. I was trying to figure out what to wear to my brothers house this evening since this guy that I'm interested in is going to be there. Well, just out of curiosity, I tried on my size 7 jeans that I haven't been able to fit into for probably over a year. I wore them when I first started dating Kevin. I looked GREAT back then. I was working out a lot and really felt good about myself. Well, I couldn't really wear them out of the house yet, but I got them on without having to lay down on the bed and didn't have to struggle. One of the pairs is even a BUTTON FLY. YOU KNOW THOSE won't button if you shouldn't be wearing them, lol. I was shocked! Like I said, I still won't wear them yet, but the fact that I can get them over my thighs and zipped and buttoned is HUGE! I have to keep at this. I am so excited I'm getting down to my goal weight again. I'm gonna make it this time. I WILL!
