I really need to stop weighing myself every day (read: multiple times a day). Maybe I need to put the scale away until Monday rolls around so I won't constantly check it. It's so discouraging to see the same numbers day after day. I have been working so hard and I feel like I'm never going to reach the end. I can't think of many things I've finished in my life. I never got a degree (heck, I didn't even finish junior college). I don't have a job (not to mention the last one I had didn't even think I was good enough to keep around). I don't ever stick to things, as is evident by my current size. I know I want to finish this; I'm just unsure sometimes if I can.
Maybe I'll re-read this in a few minutes and decide that I really should get back in there and say "It's only 20 minutes of my life". Or maybe I'll end up disappointing myself and my family and just go to bed early. I know it's up to me to make the decision and it's up to me to accept whatever the outcome is for actions. Let's see what happens...
If it means anything at all, I'm totally inspired by your journey! You CAN do it and when you reach the end (or what you'd deem to be a healthy weight) you'll be so incredibly proud of yourself.
ReplyDeleteIt means a lot, Julia. Thank you!
ReplyDeleteTry not to think about the short goals, focus more on long term and I think you will do just fine. You can do it, beat that scale!
