Motivation Mondays

Have you ever felt unmotivated?  Either by the sheer thought of a task or not knowing where to start of just plain, lack of motivation?

Lately I felt that way.  Things have been going on that left me down in the dumps and I want out. I want out of the dumps and get moving on some stuff around here.  I want to paint my room, get some decorating done in my family room, get some tables in the living room and do some decorating there and the list goes on and on and on...

I need motivation.  This motivates me today.  This will be a brand new week.

What motivates you?  Keeps you going?

Weigh In

I have been bad about weighing in lately but this week I did and I had a 3 pound loss! Yippee! I am determined more than ever to lose 10 lbs in the next 4 weeks. I know I must be crazy but I did my BMI and it did not make me happy but I have an ulterior motive. Aside from being healthy I want the weight off but I want something more. I want a breast reduction. I know TMI but for years it has bothered me. This is so ironic because back in the day when all my friends were getting boobs I had none - in fact I really had no body (ahh to think I wanted boobs and curves back then).

So, I have an appointment with a surgeon. I have suffered back pain, headaches and the fact that anytime I find clothes I have to go up a size because of my breasts. So I think the weight loss will help and it's a consultation. So that is my motivation for now.

The Weigh In

After not losing last week I was determined to do better this week.

And I did.

I lost 1.1

I am very happy.

That brings my total to 14.1 lbs since Dec. 1st.

My pants were falling down yesterday - but I love those boyfriend jeans.

I have some really good friends who offer great motivation and encouragement - we work at it together.

Have a happy weekend!!
