I'm back from my weigh in and I weighed 229.6. I'm okay with it though. At least I didn't go back over to the 230s! So that's a gain of 2 pounds. Well my goal for next week is to lose at least 2.5 pounds!!! It was a great meeting. I'm so glad I went! The leader talked about sustaining motivation which can be difficult especially during the summer time. She also talked about us being our own worse critic. She's so right!! Someone mentioned they've been receiving compliments and they feel really uncomfortable accepting them. The leader asked her if she says "Thank you BUT" which...

Well I'll be heading out to my meeting soon. I really don't feel like going anywhere right now. I'm bloated, crampy and I have a headache. I just want to get back in the bed but I'm not!!! I need the motivation of the meeting so here I go....

I'm know I'm going to show a gain but I'm not going to stress it...no really I mean it!!! I mean there's nothing that I can do about it. It is what it is.

BBL!

It's Friday and the weekend is almost here! Thank goodness!!! TOM started yesterday and I feel....eh...blah. I have cramps, my back aches and I feel super bloated. I don't even have to step on the scale to know that it's up. I still plan on going to my meeting tomorrow though. Maybe I'll use my "no weigh" pass tomorrow. Or maybe I wont...I may just step on the scale but not look at my card. I'm feeling really good about the program and my progress and I'm not going to let one weigh in take away that feeling. I can now even tell that I'm making progress. I can definitely see it...

I'm glad the day is over. Today was pretty overwhelming and right now I don't feel like thinking about anything. I just want to watch some mindless tv and turn my brain off for a while. I'm really worried about being able to do what I'm being trained for. It's just so much and there's so many steps! Sigh...I guess with a little bit of time it will get easier. The training classes that I'm taking are basically building on the previous class. I just hope eventually it will get easier.

This location is near the nice grocery store so I picked up some sushi for dinner. It was sooo good!!...

It's Monday and it's time to start a new week. I have to go to another location starting tomorrow through Friday for training. That will be additional gas because it's farther to get there. It's almost 4 dollars a gallon! Me and my sister was talking last night and she mentioned that even the cheapest groceries stores have went up on their prices. She normally goes to a store where you bag your own groceries called Sav A Lot and even their prices have increased. I tell you between gas and groceries what is a family to do?? Thank goodness it's just me and my husband because I can't...
