NO EXCUSES

I am going to tell myself that EVERY day!
I am back "on" again... At the beginning of summer we had to fill out a paper at the WW meeting and set a goal... I had completely forgotten about that until yesterday!
My goal was to lose 10 lbs by September - Well, if I don't get my butt in gear that goal will go down the tube like all the other goals I have set.
Time to break the cycle.

I have not told my "family" that I am back on track.  I have not made any conversation at all about eating or drinking, how much and what kind... 
I am going to quietly go about my day, counting, tracking, drinking (water) ... eventually I will throw exercise in there - and see if anyone notices... or how long it takes them to notice.

There is enough junk food in this house to sink a ship but I haven't been eating it over the past 2 days... my hubby doesn't need to be eating it either but he is.

My FIL came by today with fresh veggies from his garden... I popped them in the fridge and will start chowing down on them.

I have 2 friends whom both carry the same name and live in 2 different provinces of Canada... but they support and encourage me no matter how frumpy and dumpy I get about this journey.  They are both an inspiration and its because of them that I have picked up my sorry self, threw me back on the wagon and decided this journey is worth travelling again.

For all my other friends... you too are an inspiration and every little bit counts!  I love the comments to know I am not alone... and others believe in me when I don't.

I was watching a show the other day and the gal was trying to lose lots of weight... when she never made her goal she had loads of excuses... I was getting frustrated watching her speak excuse after excuse of "why not".   It dawned on me that that was ME.  As much as I HATE to admit that, seriously, I hate admitting I have loads of excuses - so many so that I will make excuses for my excuses. 
Now that I have my pain under control I should be able to push myself a little more (in the exercise department) and find the will power to say NO and throw out the Lazy's when it comes to meal preparation. 

Tomorrow is WI - I didn't go last week... but I intend to go tomorrow... until then.
