Blah blah blah...that's how I feel about today's Extreme Makeover : Me Edition today. Well, just about my post and the fact that I don't have anything positive to say right now. I just came back form weigh-in where I gained 1.8 pounds...that's almost 2 pounds! What the hey? Ugh. I guess the positives are that I felt a little kick in my pants when I stepped on those scales today...like a little voice saying "see, you better get your butt in gear" and I left the meeting feeling somewhat motivated. So, I guess I better listen. I want next weeks 'tales from the scales' to be good. I wanted soooooo badly to have lost 25 pounds (at least) by vacation. Now I know that I can kiss that dream good-bye. Vacation is a week from tomorrow and now I am an extra 1.8 pounds away from that goal. boo. My WW leader said something today though that really stuck with me..."the road to success is always under construction." I think that is very fitting.
So, this week I will...
- exercise
- eat LOTS of fruits and veggies
- drink lots of water
- make smart choices
- remember that one bad meal does not constitute giving up
I will not...
- be frustrated
- give up
- sabotage myself
- let stress get the best of me
- lose out on quality sleep
- make excuses
I hope everyone on the weight-loss/healthy living highway has a successful week ahead! For more EM:ME go see Amber (she lost 4 POUNDS this week!...go give her a virtual 'pat on the back'!)

I gained one million pounds this week. And I am WAY too scared to step on the scales to find out exactly how much.
Just be happy that today is a new day. :)
Way to stay postivie.
Yep, just look at the positive side of things!! You can meet your goals!!
Okay, you told me how fun SWAP's were so I joined one. YOu need to join too! :) check out my blog to link over to Seriously's blog and tell her I sent you! :) Hope you are doing good!
You'll do better next week! You have a great attitude, keep it up, and the pounds will come off!:-)
pfft. Muscle weighs more than fat. A small gain like that is not necessarily a bad thing. Do your clothes fit better...?
You have a super attitude and will do just fine!
I'm proud of your attitude. I know how discouraging it can be to get on the scale and see that you've gained.
I bet this week you will drop that 1.8 and more! =) It may have just been what you needed to get you motivated AGAIN.
I need to check out this EM:ME. I need something to blog about! LOL!
Sorry about your weight gain. Sounds like you are staying positive though!
You go girl!! Even with ups and downs you're doing something... and that's more than most people can say!!
:)
