Motivation

I thought this was an interesting read on SparkPeople.com (well really an email I got from them) on not giving up.

Since you're obviously a slob who doesn't have enough self- discipline to remember to brush your teeth, why bother brushing them at all if you forgot to last night?

Of course not.

So if you had ice cream for dinner last night, or didn't exercise yesterday, or gained a pound this week, don't throw in the towel! Make a healthier choice for dinner tonight by eating something lean. Go for a short walk. Weigh in again next week.

Just do NOT give up."

Ohhhhhhhhh now that is good - right? But not brushing.....the teeth fall out....they have to be worth a pound or two right? ;)

I have switched weigh in days - from Monday to Wednesday. Why? Because I swiched weight loss challenge nights. I sort of jumped into the middle of the one on Mondays because I (and Angela my fellow Herbalife friend who is running these things) knew I needed to get right on track or I never would. So I started week 7 of 12 on Monday. Well the Wednesday group is finally starting and its at my house. Not a problem right?!?! Well that meant I had to clean and keep it clean and if it is going to be at my house I better stay on the ball and lose. :D I've also taken to posting this picture on my fridge :

This would be me and my hubby waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaay back in 1998 - Senior year fall homecoming. About 175 lbs. I still have this dress - I loved this dress - I want to wear it again and look this great someday. Well it is practice time for me so I have to dash........they are trying to fatten me back up with pizza and salad tonight >.< I will take my pills, I will take my pills, I will take my pills........ and be good and not eat a ton! ~Hugs~Jen
