Whew! Where did June go!? And may for that matter! Summer always seems to move so fast and so slow at the same time, ever notice that? I need to cram lots of fun into next week so I can feel like my summer was worth something.
In other news, I did backtrack and gain about 5 pounds of my loss back. That sets me at about 184, which I'm not thrilled about. I'd like to get rid of these four pounds quickly and get back on track to feeling healthier. More than feeling fat or anything, I feel like I failed by gaining a few pounds. That being said, my visit to Knoxville seemed like I was constantly in limbo. I tried to fill it with visits with friends and working at dad's office, but when it came down to it, I really felt like I wasted my summer, without having any real "vacation". So I think my malcontent lead to my eating, and I wish I could go back and do it again (preferably in Jamaica, haha).
But, there ain't no changing the past, so it's time to get back in the habit of eating healthy food that has been prepared at home especially to keep me on track! I'm never very good at losing weight and eating out unless I starve myself, so the best way to combat that is to keep food prepared here at the house so I don't have to worry about it! I also have been trying to do a lot of working out, which I attribute to Brit Headrick, because every day she was with me in memphis, we were in the gym for a minimum of 30 minutes. It was a really good eye-opener to show me I have time to actually do gym AND fun stuff every single day. It also got me back on the horse (so to speak) that I had fallen off of in May. So at this point, I'm just trying to get something done every day so that I feel accomplished and have a reason to eat healthy. Like just now I just completed 30 minutes on the treadmill and some weight lifting!
Alright, this was a very scattered post, but at least I got something on paper for this journal so I can start back on the weight loss.
