Weigh in Wednesday, Posted Thursday?

Checking in for my Weigh In Wednesday...on Thursday. Sorry, I got caught up yesterday and wasn't able to get on the computer to blog. More importantly though, I'm down 1.4lbs. Another 2lbs and I'll be back to where I started losing weight over a year ago.

After the debacle at the beginning of the week (Super Bowl Couch Fest) I wasn't sure that I was going to have made any progress. I was pretty nervous to step up on the scale. Discouraging thoughts were running through my head, like I'm always going to be fat. I'm too lazy to do this. Etc. I'm still trying to get into the right mindset. I really wasn't even happy after I saw that I lost this week. I thought "ugh...just another pound." But today I was thinking, if I lose a pound per week all year long, I can lose a total of 52lbs this year. That totally doesn't suck. I went into my freezer and pulled out a pound of chicken and told myself, "this is the weight that is no longer on your body. This is just a pound." Again, that totally doesn't suck.

I've gotten back into my normal routine and am starting to feel better. My energy levels are up, no more stomach issues, and I feel clearer mentally. This has been a rough week so far, hopefully there'll be more progress next week as well. In the meantime, Penny and I are going out to play in the snow!
