Went to the doctor's office yesterday and WOAH- back up to 138? Maybe I need to get a scale so I can weight myself a little more regularly than once every few months. I'm just so anti-scale... obviously I know I've been getting heavier, I can see it in the mirror and in the way my clothes fit, but it does help to track progress. Time to get back into a healthy lifestyle! I'm going to set two goals to work on:
1) No more after-work snacking (before dinner). I'm in such a bad habit of walking through the door and grabbing candy/cookies/whatever is within reach.
2) Exercise at least 3 days a week. I'll try to build that up to 6 at some point, but let's start with 3.
Ready? ...GO!

Going to start tracking my food again. Not that I'm "dieting" in the least, but I think there's great value in 1) being mindful of how much I eat and 2) understanding the nutritional value of what I eat. It's far too easy to come home after a long day at work and plop down on the couch with a bag of candy (thanks a lot, Easter). I made much healthier choices when I last tracked my food, so I think it's a good idea to get back into that.

I've slowly been getting my butt moving again. Monday I went to ballroom dance class, and Tuesday and Wednesday I went to Zumba. I know I have to get back into strength training and running soon, but for now I feel like any activity is better than sitting on the couch for hours!
I'm still having trouble finding motivation to make healthier choices. Maybe if I write out some "reminders" here it'll help get my rear in gear:
1) You only have one body, and one life to live. Make the most of it! (always my #1 motivation)
2) Summer is coming, which means bikinis and shorts. I'd like to be proud enough of my body to want to show it off.
3) I'm going to be a bridesmaid in August. And those pictures will last forever.
4) Warm weather means fun outdoor activities (hiking, biking, swimming, kayaking, etc.) and I want to be fit enough to enjoy them.
So there... now when I'm lacking motivation, I can come read that list.

Well lookie there- it's my long-lost friend, FatSecret! I can't believe you abandoned me for MONTHS ON END... yeah yeah okay, I'm the one who did the abandoning. Totally skipped out on ya.
But I'm back, and begging for forgiveness!
Darling FatSecret, you were good to me for so long. Always encouraging me on my health journey, ready with a sweet smile and a pat on the back or a string of harsh profanities that would make any boot camp instructor blush. You were what I needed, when I needed it. And I abandoned you.
But I AM BACK.
Let's be real for a sec. Last January I was alllll about my health journey. I was the one who showed up to workout classes early with a huge smile and neon sweatbands on. Not really... but close. I was excited. I was proud. I was ready. A year later, things have changed. I'm lazy. Lethargic. Totally lacking motivation. Perfectly content to get home from work and park my butt on the couch for hours at a time. I'm 5 pounds heavier than I was last summer.
And I'm unhappy.
Not with my weight, or my looks, but with my attitude. I do not like this lazy girl who has let go of her ambition and goals. So I've decided to force myself to get up and go, even though I really have no desire to do so. I'm hoping that getting back to the gym will, in turn, make me WANT to go to the gym. I need something to snap me out of this funk... but I have no idea how to get myself motivated.
For now, I'll just say this:
I am going to the gym tonight.
And that's a phrase I haven't said in months.
