Long Time, No Blog Part 2

I am really starting to slack aren't I!?! 


It's April! I can't believe its been 3 months already!  My hope is that April will be my restart button to get back on track. 


Weight update:


After 2 weeks off the plan, I was up to 200 lbs. again....it was very depressing seeing that number again.  This was after a week of eating like a 19 year old boy with corndogs and fish sticks and then a bachelorette party weekend where food was always an arm reach away along with lots of alcohol, then a week of recovery and trying to play catch up.  After all that I knew my body needed a deep clean!  So I tried a Juice Cleanse.  I know, I know its another crazy fad.  But I think it really helped. I started out thinking I would do it for 4 days but ended it after 3.  It was hard.  I missed whole foods.  I missed chewing.  But by the end I was back to 192 lbs. and I felt a lot better!  That's what I needed! 


Today, I am down to 188.8 lbs. and I can't tell you how exciting it was to see the 180s!  Just makes me want to race to see the 170s! 


Dietbet update:


I am a week away from finishing one dietbet.  I still have to lose 1.6lbs so I am back to exercising and making good choices because I'm a winner and not a loser! 


I signed up today for Jillian's Rippedin30 dietbet.  The pot for this dietbet is huge and I'm excited to lose so more to keep me motivated to get to those 170s! 


Fitbit update:


I didn't wear my Fitbit for almost a week....it was bad. But now I'm back!  I went from bottom now I'm in second compared to my friends in only a couple of days!  I'm working my way to take the number 1 place back to watch out! 


Other Update:


Rosalie (my fur child) and I are doing the Furry 5k this Sunday!  I did not run for almost 2 weeks and now I am paying for it as I get ready for this 5k.  I have a feeling we may walk some of it but we will do our best to just keep trucking!  I'm hoping that Rosalie gets along with her fellow runners and doesn't stop to sniff every inch.  Wish us luck!


AND....


Do you notice how I tend to post a lot sometime and a little other times?   I think I've figured it out. 


I try to be a happy person.  I don't like bad news, I don't like sad news, I don't like failing.  These are all things that can make me seam like an insensitive person and maybe I am.  Either way I need to address my failures.  I need to accept the bad news.  I need to react to the sad news.  This is a struggle for me but I will do my best to stop, address, and move on so that I can really learn. 


Were the decisions I made during the last two weeks worth the set back in my weight loss goal?  No Way! 


Okay enough of the therapy session...
