Goals for May: Walking my Path

I haven't written monthly goals for myself in a long time. I've been thinking about why this might be, and I think it's because I have a hard time with failure. It's hard to put myself out there and risk not being perfect. Especially publicly. That said it's gotten to a point where I need to take chances.... risk my ego.... and risk failure again.

So, I'm going to dive right in and publicly state my goals for this month:

Meal planning every week (Weekends)

Weigh in (Thursdays)

Meds + Probiotics (Daily)

Journaling meals + Counting Calories (Daily)

Exercise: Gym, Yoga, or 30 minute walk (Daily)

Meditation (Daily)

80 Pounds

SO, I'm pretty sure it's because I've been sick with the flu, barely eating and drinking tons of fluids, but this week I hit the 80lb mark on my Epic Weight Loss Journey. Im gonna celebrate it anyway. ♥

By me!

Frustrated.

I gained weight this week. 1.8lbs to be exact.

I'm frustrated. I've been hovering around this same number for MONTHS. It's like my body won't let me push past 70lbs of loss. It wants me here.

This week I was feeling really good about my efforts which is like adding insult to injury. I stuck to my Weight Watchers points.. I did my intro to boot camp and exercised 5 days this week.

Grrrrr.
