Much better

Geez, my enthusiasm was sure less than desired over the past few days. I do get that way from time to time though. I get in a funk and then have to work my way out of it. The good news is that when I notice it, I immediately begin seeking ways to be happy again. I don't usually get down on myself for too long. Or if nothing else, I definitely make sure I don't get any worse. I know better :)

Anyway, just as I predicted, my weigh-in didn't go so well. Over the past week, I had eaten a couple of things that weren't exactly low fat, but for the most part did watch what I ate. However, as my week progressed I simply wasn't any feeling lighter. I usually most notice the difference in the morning, and so when I got up on Tuesday I could just tell. By the time I went to weigh in at 6pm, I was just hoping for no weight gain. Well, I did gain... but really, only a little. I gained .2 lbs. Since I was at a total loss of 8.2 lbs as of last week, I am still at an 8 lb loss now. So, while I was bummed I didn't lose any weight this past week, I realized I actually didn't do that bad. Rather, I simply maintained. In addition, since I had a good loss of 3 lbs last week I think I am still doing well. Losing 8 lbs in one month is definitely something to be proud of!

In the end, I decided not to go to yoga class or do any other workout on Tuesday. I simply wasn't feeling it. But by the time I went to sleep last night I decided to be done with the bad mood.

Today, I was back to feeling good. I watched my eating and went to yoga class with the kids. I am now really looking forward to tomorrow--our first official Team in Training workout. I'm thinking there's no real getting off track from here onward. But who knows, it's definitely possible I'll have days again like I've had recently. As of now though, I'm good. I am again feeling positive about what I'm doing and what I will be able to accomplish on this journey.

All is well!!
