Fitness On Friday

So, I haven’t participate in Fitness on Friday with the girls over at Bye Bye Fat Mom. I’ve been busy lazy.  I participated for a couple of weeks, lost 5 pounds and then started slacking.

A few days ago we were getting ready to go somewhere.  I put on a shirt I really wanted to wear and it was a bit snug way too tight.  I thought if I kept my stomach sucked in, it wouldn’t be so bad.  So, a few minutes later Rich said, “I want to tell you something, but I know I shouldn’t say it.”  And I said, “What?  My shirt is too tight?”  And he nodded, looking a bit worried about what he had said.  As I was changing into a different shirt Rich said, “You’re changing?”  And of course I was irritated with him.  But, really it’s myself I should be upset with.

The weather is finally nice here, so I put on a pair of shorts the other day.  They fit but were a little bit too tight for me to really be comfortable.  They fit me perfectly last summer- and even though I only weight a few pounds more this year it really makes a difference.

Of course I am feeling depressed with myself and I just want to sit around and snack all day.  That should help, right?  I should post about how I’m going to start eating better and exercising but honestly, right now, I feel no motivation at all to do any of those things. 

What a cheery post, huh?

    Oh Melanie, I could have written this post too. Ugh!!! I don’t even leave the house in shorts, only capris for me. I put on a pair from last summer, and oh, so, tight!!! And I totally helped the situation….I just got done eating toooo many of your favorite Chips Ahoy cookies. But, tomorrow’s another day, right?

    Melanie, I did awful on vacation and just feel UGH! But, I’m trying to go around to blogs and websites to motivate me! I just went last night and bought tons of stuff for low points recipes and am excited to try them. I know you can get back on track. We all have our step backs, it’s only part of the process. At least you can go out in shorts, I refuse to do them or even capri’s!

    It is really hard to get motivated. I was doing so good in the beginning of the year and then I got sick in March and it has been downhill since then. I just have no motivation to work out.

    I hear ya girl!
    More and more shirts are getting just a little snug.
    I started working on it a week or so ago and saw some improvement on the scale and then things got all emotional and I gave most of the away. :( Keith got my bike ready and I WILL get my patoot on it this week. Up an at ‘em!
