Day 38: No More Cheat Days

Soooo...I'm a little behind. I went out of town Saturday and Sunday to Nashville to see the Colts beat the Titans! I had a blast. I still worked out and got my steps in (Sunday), but the rest of the weekend I laid around eating and soaking up the mini vacay!

Then, Yelp had an event at Smashburger. I hopped on the scale and 252 scowls at me. It's like I can't shake it. No matter how hard I work, 252 stays on the scale. I'm sick of this! I'm tired of getting up at 6 in the morning and eating like a bird for 4-5 days straight only to ruin it with one or two days of "cheating" or to put it more bluntly gluttony.

My goal is to lose 20 lbs by the end of the year. At that rate I was going working out, I should be at least halfway there, but nope. I feel so fat. I'm frustrated and angry with myself for allowing myself to gain all of this weight that now seems impossible to lose.

I obviously need to get more serious. To see the results I want. 40 days of working out and only 8lbs gone is pathetic. Especially since I lost 7 in the first week. I know i should be ecstatic about the fact I made it 30 days without missing a single day at the gym, but I just envisioned losing more. What I will NOT do is throw in the towel. I have to be level headed here and take all things into consideration:
1. The scale is the Devil
2. I've made strides toward my goal
3. I see a difference
4. I'm healthier and stronger
5. I'm beautiful and smart regardless

Now...shake this pity party off and get back to it. October is going to be more focused! By the end of the year I will have a new body. 

There are 12 weeks left in this year (sheesh...it's almost over)
