It seems as though I've given up on my weight loss goals.
I didn't.
It sure seems that way, but I've not.
No worries!
:-)
However, the end of September and begining of October bringing our move into a new place and all the joys and stresses that have come along with it, the past almost 30 days now have seemed like a total waste of not doing anything.
I am sorry to anyone and everyone who's been checking this blog and not finding new found success to my goals...
On that note, the end of October is nearing and my plans to kick back into the world of weight loss is turning back to being full gear in my life! :-) That's a happy thought...
Now, here's the plan. I have a TON of new recipes I've been wanting to try with my family, but never have worried about making them due to the fact that I've got this silly idea that if I make it I'll eat it and therefore ruin my diet plans. I'm not sure if I am going to go back to counting points with Weight Watchers or if I'm going to follow a different plan or not. I still want to try the article I found that was titled "Lose 7 Pounds in 7 Days" and so I might start out with that. I found three "new" Tae Bo workout tapes to add my arsinal and Rob and I are hoping to aquire the new Wii Fit Plus software for Christmas.
Rob's been getting active again, though. He's been using Wii Sports to box and he's definately working up a sweat when he's "playing" that game. (He's trying to keep his Pro status on the game, so it keeps him busy!) And lately, he's been sword fighting with Wii Sports Resort when the kids are napping or in bed for the night. It's fun to watch him get into those games like a workout, because it's a bit of motivation for me...
However, my new motivation needs to be a bit more vain, I fear. I think that I am going to have to pull out my old clothes, finally. I'm talking sundresses and jeans and all the cute tops and things I used to wear before getting pregnant with Hannah. I'm actually very, VERY tempted to use my wedding gown as motivation. If I can get my butt back into that dress then I'll have reached a major weight loss milestone! I'd love to be able to get into my old prom dress (which I still have) from my senior year in high school, but I'm not sure that will EVER happen! lol That's beyond wishful thinking, and just down right insane! But hey! If I can at least get back into that wedding dress, which means getting back down to at least 135lbs in weight, then maybe I can make it a goal to lose another 15-20 and get back into that prom dress...
HA! Yeah, right!
No one ever gets back to the weight they were in high school...
Well, this next week holds some new eating habits for me, and then November kicks off the holiday season of baked goods and homemade candies, to which I may have to not make my favorite peanut butter balls this year... (How sad!) And if I do, I'll have to give them all away before they get a chance to get too tempting! (Even sadder...)
So I'll end this post out with a sorry to anyone who's been following it, an admittance to my failure in this past month, and a big ol' fat "WISH ME LUCK!"
