Before After

Ouch!

Hey, everyone!

Well, I finally decided to update my weight tracker.  I didn't want to in September because I was hovering around 215 or so, and I thought I'd get back on track and get those pounds back off.   I thought I could do it on my own.   But, clearly that's not the case.  I've continued my stress eating since school started and have been taking in a huuuge amount of calories every day...mindless snacking at work, and hefty dinners at home.

I might have been able to hold off a few pounds worth, had I been exercising during all this time.  But, no.  That, too, has gone the way of the wind.   So, I'm counting my blessings that my PMS weight today is only 222.

Yesterday I joined a gym and while it doesn't open until January, that's a big step.  Some friends from work and I have agreed to go to the gym after school together.  So, I think that'll be great for me!  I also want to do the Cap10K again, so I've got to get moving.

Finally, I talked to my hubby starting back at JC.   Right now, I need the structure imposed upon me.  So, I'll be getting back on the JennyDirect program since driving to the center has been a pain in the butt, at best...... and, at worst, an excuse not to even go.

Ok, that's it.  I'm going to take my dog for a walk and take those first real steps towards getting back in the groove.   See y'all later!!

Good luck!

 

On returning back to Jenny.  I think updating the weight tracker is a way to get straight with yourself.  When I saw I had gained weight, I was like, "Ugh, noooo," but when I updated it was like I was owning up to it and ready to change things.  YOu can do it!

Braver than I am!

I updated my weight tracker, but am not displaying it (I was 206 yesterday morning).  I gained about 10 lbs during my marathon training, but sadly was up about 20 lbs from my all time low of 192 last December.  Oh well...I'm back at JC too (love the structure) and even though I gained, I still feel smaller than ever, and I tried on some size 10 pants yesterday that I haven't ever worn, and they fit.
