A loss of .6 is better than a kick in the ass.

Which is really what I need!

Any takers?

Time to get moving!

Although I am discouraged, I have decided that I will not give up - no matter how much it seems easier to give up and fill my face with chocolate!

This morning at weigh in, I reminded myself that in my first semester of school this year, I gained 5 pounds. I have lost that 5 pounds, and the whole goal of doing WW was to avoid gaining more weight this semester.

The reality of my life is that I do not have a lot of time in my life currently. To expect to have hours to exercise in a week is unrealistic for me. But I can still aim to get some walks in, but not beat myself up when I don't.

I am a full time post graduate student.

I am working hard to balance life, family, school, and a practicum. I cannot let schoolwork and family slide to make my weight loss goals happen sooner.

I do want to lose weight.

I will continue to track.

I don't want to gain weight.

I will work as hard as I can to make it happen.

Slow and steady will be my mantra. If I expect too much of myself, I will give up when my expectations are not met.

Slow and steady.

Graduation is just around the corner, and then I can give weight loss more effort.
