Weight Rundown #8

So, as you may have guessed, I’ve taken a couple weeks off the dieting bandwagon. It is so damn difficult to stay motivated when the weight loss is so damn slow. Don’t get me wrong, I’m happy with the 6 lbs I’ve lost, but it feels like the rewards are so few and far between that it is easy to lose sight of the overall goal.

The good news is that during my “break” I haven’t gained an ounce. To me, this means that even when I’m not actively dieting, I’m still eating well enough to maintain my weight. I went out to dinner with my friend Shalla Friday night, and then traveled to Sacramento on Saturday which meant another lunch and dinner out. If I’m trying to focus on the positives, I can be proud of myself that I am able to do these things while still maintaining my weight, as I’ve literally been the exact same weight for several weeks now.

So, my goal now is to get faithfully back on the horse, and hope to see another drop in the coming week. I think that if I can see even a little drop, it will help to get my motivation a bit more back on track where it needs to be.

Wish me luck!

You can do it!! Don't give up. Maintaining is good. Slow weight loss is better anyways right? That's what I try to tell myself.
