Here is a quote I heard the other day and I like it. "Willpower is like a muscle. The more you use it the stronger it gets."
So I haven't been to fat class in 2 weeks. It was very hard for me to go this morning because I knew I had gained. I knew that if I skipped another weigh in it would be nearly impossible for me to get back on track. I have been doing a lot of traveling the last two weeks and haven't been 100% accountable. I gained 0.8 lbs or 1.2 lbs from my home weight. To be honest I expected more, so I'll take it and start this new week. I took a challenge this week and took home the "community journal". This means I have to track honestly and completely and go back to next weeks class to turn it in. This is a good way to keep members accountable and most people who take home the journal have a good week. Makes sense - you follow the program because you know someone is going to check up on you. I needed this challenge this week. I have been feeling really down lately due to the time of year. I absolutely love this time of year because of the weather but I am dreading another summer being fat. We are going to open the pool this weekend... that means bathing suit weather is just around the corner. I hate summer clothes. I would love to love them, but I can't remember the last time I felt good in a bathing suit or shorts. I get depressed thinking about it. I don't want to feel like this anymore...
This week I am going to work on building my willpower muscle.
