Hey guys!
I had a great week last week, then the weekend came and I was like a bottomless pit filled with junk food. It was awful, ya'll. On Saturday we had Shane's for lunch then Papa John's pizza for dinner. Sunday we had Moe's for Hazels birthday lunch (she requested that), then Chili's for dinner. I also had half of Hazel's brownie topped with ice-cream she got from Chili's. That thing was AMAZING.
Anyway, I realized something on Sunday night. I felt like crap. I felt heavy.
I used to feel that way all the time. I don't miss it. It's a terrible feeling. Junk food does taste good, no one is denying that, but it doesn't feel good. As soon as I was done shoveling it in my face I felt like crap. That's an awful feeling and I don't like it.
That is why I'm doing this. I love the way I feel when I'm eating healthy and exercising. I love when I look in the mirror and my body has changed. I love having energy and the desire to get up and play with Hazel instead of pretending like I'm too busy.
There is no getting around it. Eating healthy and exercise make me a better person. There is no magic pill that will give me that same feeling as eating healthy does.
Now to the weigh-in.
Starting weight (1.2.2013) 230.4
Last week: 212.6
This week: 213.0
+.4
When I saw that I was disappointed. BUT I know it's because of my bad choices this past weekend. On Monday I weighed myself and it was 213.8, so I have lost a little since the weekend. I'm going to weigh myself again on Friday.
This weekend is Hazel's birthday party & Easter. Which meals food galore.
We are doing all the food for her party and we're going to do hamburgers, hot dogs, and chips. But we're also going to have a veggie tray and fruit skewers. I'm planning on eating a BIG healthy breakfast so that I can make good choices. I never make good choices when I'm hungry.
This first picture is from Hazel's first birthday party, 2 years ago.
I have lost 33 pounds since then. And I have gained so much self-confidence.
I never want to go back to that girl. That girl wasn't happy. Or healthy. That girl didn't know that healthy food can taste good and make you feel good.

You look amazing!!! Also, I love Moes and the closest one to us is 50 minutes away. Thank goodness bc I used to eat sometimes a few times per week before we moved!!
ReplyDeleteYou are beautiful and you can see the confidence in your smile. I tried to eat hotdogs and hamburgers this past week and they did not even taste good. I still crave healthier foods even when I am trying to be bad. Potato chips are a different story though, I can still eat my weight in them.
ReplyDeleteHow was I not already following you on Instagram?! Totally fixed that right away! Sorry for the gain but you know if you pound the water and get back on track it'll be gone in no time. It may not be easy with the weekend ahead but I know you'll do it. You're beautiful by the way, both in your before and after photos!
ReplyDeleteI love your before and after pictures, sometimes I feel we need to remember where we have come from before we get too down on ourselves for a little gain. In the end you are still closer to your goal then you were at the beginning. Keep it up :)
ReplyDeleteYou look awesome!!!
ReplyDeleteYou are looking great! Drink lots of water this week and that gain will be long gone! You have a great plan for the weekend! Keep up the good work!
ReplyDeleteYou look fabulous!
ReplyDeleteYour photos are inspiring! I would agree with you about feeling crappy after crappy food. I can't say I won't eat crappy ever again because that's not realistic but I can make sure I don't eat too much of the junk food.
