I am just not motivated.  AT ALL     I am tired and by body hurts.   I’ve got another sinus infection, I can’t lift my right arm.  I just am not motivated to do anything, including lose weight.  The only upside, I don’t feel like food shopping either so I have no food so I am not eating as much at home.

Any ideas.

I’m not dieting and haven’t significantly changed what I’m eating but last week I did workout 4x (three 20 minute workouts and one 45 minute workout) but nothing has changed yet.  I know I know!  It takes time and I promised myself not to expect anything until at least a month goes by and to keep in mind more of how my clothes fit.

Turbo Jam is working well and goes by quickly, which is a plus for me.  It will be nice when I move and have nobody below me so I can really get into it!

The Numbers for the past 2 weeks:
1.2 lbs lost / 26.6 total lbs lost / 13.4 P2G

Hi all! So nice to see everyone back! I, too, have been pretty lax at keeping up here at P2G. I’m still chugging along, but haven’t been able to spend as much time blogging as I’d like (I’d LIKE to spend a couple hours getting caught up, but…ha ha ha…a couple hours of free time? What’s THAT?) Being busy has helped me to stay on course with my weight loss. I tend to eat mindlessly when I’m alone with some free time. I don’t know if idle hands are really the devil’s tools, but I DO know that MY idle hands are weight-gain tools!

Did you all know that Nestle is buying Jenny Craig?

Dieting never sounded so nummy as it did to me when I read that news.

Wow! It’s so nice to see all the updates from everyone! It’s been a long time since I’ve posted too…I guess I sort of gave up on us. And I certainly gave up on me! I believe I’m right back to Square One again, or very close to it. In January, I figured I’d be sooo close to my goal by this time. Hah! :rant:

We’ve had some rather unsettling “family stuff” crop up over the past week, and then there are the ever-present financial struggles, and all those great curve balls that Life throws at you and that you use as easy excuses.

In actuality, there’s really no better time to treat yourself well than when you’re going through a stressful time. So, I’m willing to recommit myself to a program again. I know how and what and why…I just need to DO it.

Has it really been almost 2 months since I posted? Well, that means it has been 2 months that I’ve been stuck at the same weight. Since that time, I have dropped Weight Watchers meetings (for the summer to give myself a break and see if I can do this on my own) and I have not lost any weight. I may have even gained back a pound or so, but I haven’t gained more.

While I feel defeated, the not gaining it back is an accomplishment. I joined this site for support and I have not been giving or receiving it lately. And, I realize that I do need it. Like Sleeping Mommy, I do not want to give up on myself again when it comes to weight loss.

That’s my attitude regarding this journey.

I’ve started and given up too many times before and it always put me right back where I started or worse. Usually worse.

What are those stats about how many people who make it their new year’s resolution to lose weight and how many of them actually meet their goals?

Let’s not feed that statistic. Come on, guys. You CAN do this. If I can, I know you can. But don’t do it the way I did. Don’t hit rockbottom before it finally comes together and you realize that your health is the most important thing you have.
