Before After

I hate jeans......:-(

Okay.....I pull a pair of jeans out of the drawer this morning that I haven't worn since last winter. I spend most of my time in Lands End sport knit pants, or sweat pants(at home). Elastic is my friend.  I'm wearing the jeans today, but I've never been so miserable and pi$$ed off. They are so dang tight I could scream. So, did that inspire me to go workout at lunch time? Heck no! I actually went to the gym and it was crawling with people. My favorite treadmill was in use and I went into the locker room and it was full of cackling, stuck up women in various stages of undress. I turned around and walked out. I went to the Chinese buffet and had lunch instead. Boy, that'll help the jeans get looser.......yessiree! Sigh........I am beyond disgusted with myself. On a positive note.......I did my 30 minutes on the treadmill EVERY morning this week! Yeah me!

Hubby is away tonight so I have the whole evening to sit and feel sorry for myself.  I swear I will do better with my eating from here on.....of course, I've sworn that many times before. The thing is.......I have been doing pretty good eating wise and walking my legs off. Putting on the jeans that are so tight just make me feel like, what's the use? All this walking and I'm not making any headway! Its just totally depressing. Plus.....its rainy and dreary which does nothing for my mood. Ok.....I'll stop bitching and moaning.

I hope you all have a great weekend!

Awwww

BIG (((hugs))) for you dear!!

Been there!!!!

I have been there too, so I know how you feel.  Yes, Elastic pants are my friend too, at least for now.  One of my goals is to fit into a reg. pair of jeans with a zipper, and botton.  I'm sure I can buy them now, but I want to look good in them when I do.

When you are walking are you getting into a good fat burning Heart Rate?  I wear a heart monitor so that I don't waste my time working out.  It really is amazing when you think your working hard enough, but you really  aren't!!!!

I won't workout with out wearing it now a days.

Hope you feel better.  Don't sit around and feel bad for your self.  You have been working very hard and you should give your self a pat on the back for all the walking you have been doing.

The scene in the gym is why I work out at home now a days.  Can't stand waiting around for machines, or putting up with people I don't want to be around.  Sometimes they stink too!!!

Keep up the good work.  You will see results if you don't give up.  It does take time.

Hugs to you.

Laura.

I am so sorry

you had a bummer day....but I had to laugh at how you described it, I've had so many days just like that.  Laura brings up a good point about your heart rate, I would think with your thyroid that would be really important....
