I suck at titles

Alright, so, I've been impressed with myself lately. Not trying to be cocky or anything. There were two times in the last week that I got on the scale and the numbers went up. I put on my workout clothes, exercised, ate a good meal, and moved on. There have been many times I've held myself back--not getting what I want to eat or only have one or two pieces of chocolate instead of a handful.

My progress has been slow. I think part of it is that I still eat some desserts and I think part of it is that I am picky and only like so many healthy things. But I have resigned myself to this being a slow process. One of my motivational quotes: "It took more than a day to gain it; it'll take more than a day to lose it." Not trying to be negative, but it's true.

My weight still hasn't gone below 166.1. In fact, it went up a little this morning. I just remind myself of the fact that for months I was regularly 173. And I remind myself that I have stayed below 167 for over a week. Some days I think I see a difference in myself. Others I think I may have gained. One thing I hate though is when I refuse myself so many things and try to do everything right and my weight goes up the next day. Life I guess.
